My version of Scythians
This is my first post on here, I just wanted to put this out because I’m very proud. I do this playthrough a lot (I’m a basic bitch.) I start as a Norse in Alania. The Khazars are always a mf to get past. I start with good congenital traits always keeping under 400 for iron man. Go for dissolution and then scoop up what I can. Sometimes it goes horrible and sometimes like this play through it goes very well. I’m waiting for the mongols so I can lose it all and Adventure for the last 200 years or so. I integrate Norse and Alan for mostly the Horse Lords. Varangians and Horse archers are a lethal combination. Shield Maidens for my Amazonian warrior daughters. I love it. Not really sure what I’m trying to get out of this maybe just some discussion and feedback. But I absolutely love this playthrough and culture mixes. I also went Taltoism for the holy sites and custom religion. Plus the tenants are great. I would’ve liked to keep Bellicose but I integrated with Russian to limit rebellions. My next thing for culture is Horse breeders to cut down on horse archer cost.
