Yeah their tech trees are similar to what Xianbei, Bai and Yue might look like if they were in the game.
However, renaming them is not a choice. There will definitely be customers who pay for the 3 Kingdoms rather than any other factors. The real names of the civs have to be 3 Kingdoms-themed, as this is a 3 Kingdoms-themed DLC, even though the civs can still be renamed in campaigns technically.
The EASIEST solution would still be to move the Wei, Shu and Wu into the Chronicles. If customers who purchase this DLC haven’t bought the Battle for Greece, they could have access to the Chronicles but only the 3 Kingdoms content could be played.
Or, create a Chronicles-like spin-off game and put the Wei, Shu and Wu into there. This new spin-off could directly be named to The Three Kingdoms, and customers who purchase this DLC could receive it. In the future, other factions of the 3 Kingdoms story could be added to this spin-off as new civs, like Yellow Turbans, Xi Liang, Yuan Shao, Nanman.
Wu east Wu they are not Yue, Yue is Việt. In period of east Wu they rule Yue, and we have a Yue now. @@ don’t mistake too much. Yuenan is Yue civ located at south of China . NanYue the same . Kinh( Việt ) is one ( Việt is nation accurately similar the way Han people call themself ).
It called from ancient it too old for call, it from BC period thousand year BC. In time of AOE2 just have 1 Yue civ. And not one call them by Yue except Việt. Wu east Wu never call themself by Yue. 300- 1400 only one Yue you have( can say 200BC-now). Dali_ bei is OK .
I clearly know Wu isn’t Yue, but I want to rename it to make them par with other civs.
What do you think we should rename Wu to? We need a naval focused civ with highly sinicized culture. Maybe you could give out a better answer. For me, I just think current Viet civ ingame is Vietnam, which is only a small part of Yue people, while other Yue tribes still were active in mainland China until about 300 AD(at war with Wu and Jin and lost). Even they were conquered, their influence in those regions still lasted to modern, so I think they could be picked as a civ if there isn’t a better choice.
Dali, it is the answer. Yue never is answer for you or anyone, every act of ancient where they called by Yue it is past, and it related to Yue ancient too. So only have 1 Yue in AOE 2. If can talk about it it just maybe talk it is period of Shang and ancient of Yue. Just 5 civ you can demand, Song, Jurchen ( Jin) , Khitan ( Liao), Dali, and western Xie.
They will get nerf after DLC inbound 2-3 week . Every time DLC release the same . 1 reason you spend money to buy it. And if watch review on YouTube I can see how new civ best . UU and economy of new civ I will pick new civ every time till it get nerf
Better you can choose Song( but it is Dynasty so) Han, in Song Jin war, navy of Song do well against Jin_ you can’t pick 2 civ strong about navy. ( Before I think China will be split to 5 civ and china will transfer to Han ( Song) so you can pick 2 civ with navy Song ( Han) or Jurchen but my choices always Han ( Song)
I need watch follow this discuss let repair word people wrote. Only one Yue here, it is Vietnamese, ( Viet= Yue , nam = south, ) 300BC to now only have 1 Yue civ.
Do you know Nanyue Kingdom, Ou kingdom and Minyue kingdom in Han dynasty When there was already Vietnam?
You also know nam means south, so there was still viets in north, Why they should be represented by their southern relatives?
If you know about Minyue when they arise, it same with Yue country in spring and autumn period. NanYue is first country name of YueNan you can put name opposite it, with Zhao dynasty of YueNan. But it belong time of chronicles time. Far away from thre kingdom arise. Like my comment upon. And will never get any Yue in AOE 2. YueNan is pinyin not Latin word, but it have same mean. NanYue we are fight against Han empires, and have a time Emperor Zhao Wu claimed to be equal to the Han emperor. Short time, but after that inside NanYue all King have called by emperor, just when dealing with Han called by lord .
In Chinese language, Viet Nam and Nam Viet are two countries, one centered at current Vietnam and one centered at current Guangdong province, with Minyue at Fujian and Ou in Zhejiang.
Give me a reason why Viet Nam could represent other Viet. No independent country dosent mean a civ instantly vanished.
I have repair my comment, NanYue is kingdom of Yue( Việt - Kinh). We are never belong to China, center of NanYue start in Guangdong but have gradually moving south, we are equal with Han empires. It reason why Viet Nam could represent for only one Việt in AOE 2. If you want have other Việt back to 3000 -400 year BC and you just lucky maybe have other Viet ( Yue) .
Yue states in mainland China lasted to early 4th century, much later than you imagined. Why they can’t get their own civ? Why Vietnam could represent them? Why other civs like Indian or Chinese could be splited but Viet cannot?
edit: I’m aware of something and clarify here: Yue is used by me to represent Viet in mainland China, not whole Viet.
No any Yue have survived till the Yue on Vietnam back. No any from 200 BC do not until 400AD. grin: I just say that for many people know who and what is Yue. The creators know what thing or what civ they need rename if have. Some name do not exit in real it not is big problem. China can split but civ they are never get 1 thing Viet, Bei ( they are ruler but Thai and many other have much than Bei)Han khitan Jurchen and tanggut it all civ they can. Some one want rename to some thing not true if can happen AOE 1 can add more hand cannon on there. Three kingdom still hard accepted to AOE2 period if not why need rename? So demand some name true with period they are belong to better.
