What other Asian civilizations do we need?

I think Siamese should be introduced in a SE Asian DLC together with Chams and Mons rather than in an East Asian DLC

I also suspect that it would be a campaign DLC with 1 civilization but I do not think it would be the Tai.

If it is an [east] Asian campaign DLC it could be the Jurchen or the Tibetans.
If it is a Middle East DLC it could be the Kurds.
If it is a Europe DLC it could be the Romanians.

I do not think it will be an African, Indian, SEAsian, or American themed DLC. Then again, I could be wrong.

I would love for the Mons and Siamese to have a Buddhist temple.

Mons will be like Cumans, a civilization that kept running because it’s homeland was constantly getting encroached by Tais. In case of Cumans it was Mongols.

Tbh not just tehe Tais, alsp the Burmese

228

Yes, they ask for the Mons, and to represent that territory you already have the Burmese, right?..

229

Ethnic groups dont care about what modern territory they are from. The Mon if anything are closer to the Khmer

230

Well we have the Khmer then
 I also agree that they can be used to divide the Khmer into Khmer, Mons and Siamese

whichever ones have a good tech tree like Chinese, Vietnamese and not abysmal like Bengalis, Dravidians.

Jurchens + Chinese & Japanese rework and campaigns added.

  • Japanese are too different in all aspects compared to the entire world, they deserve at least to have 2 unique units if not 3 since there are a lot of civs with 2 unique units already while japanese only have 1. Can be anything like shinobi/ninja/spy, geisha, mounted samurai, samurai gun, ashigaru spearman/naginata, etc.
    Along with a campaign centered on the unification of Japan.

  • Chinese must get a real ‘‘Great Wall’’ tech that improves visual on the walls + ‘‘Imperial Mandate’’ tech or something like ‘‘Fireworks/Improved gunpowder’’ tech. Along with a Ming dynasty campaign.

I love the current simple Japanese civ. It has good infantry, good CA, good tower, good water, etc.

It would be Nobun*ga campaign


Chinese have Castle unique tech “Great Wall”, Imperial unique tech “rocketry”, and tech cost discount bonus now.
A War of the Three Kingdoms is too old, at 3th century. According to fandom wiki, Chinese are based on Tang, Yuan(that’s Mongol), Song, and Ming. New campaign should be about Tang or Ming. (Romans? idk)

We need the Tibetans (Songtsen Gampo and Trisong Detsen campaign_ added, along with Jurchens (Abaoji campaign) and Khitans (Yelu Dashi campaign) and a Tang Dynasty campaign as well set on Tang Taizong and Wu Zetian. A new Tibetan and Chinese building sets should also be added. It will be mega but its the only way to acknowledge the East Asian theatre which has not been dealt with since Conquerors.

Or a Toyotomi Hideyoshi campaign? Or maybe Tokugawa campaign with an epic Sekigahara battle?
Or just an epic campaign on Takeda vs Kenshin as their list of battles were impressive.
But yea, also Nobunaga trying to subdue the Ikko-Ikki at mount Hiei and the clans surrounding Kyoto.

Since the recently released DLC only added 19 scenarios, I think there could be a DLC adding regional unit models e.g. American, MENA, African, Steppe / Nomadic, Eastern European, SEA, Far East and Indian - they could be small cosmetic DLCs containing two Regional Unit Packs in one DLC.

I just remembered that there are three DLCs that add animated icons X D

Adding a mounted samurai instead of cavalier and a shinobi (already present in the scenarios) as a spy/scout would not change the simple and good meta of the japanese civ.
It will just improve the visual esthetics of it and it will make it more authentic.
Because lets be honest
cavaliers with metal shields in Japan is hurting brains and bleeding the eyes.

What I wanna say is that I love the simple consept about Japanese, so I don’t like adding new feature in Japanese civ.

What no spamming that lame video this time? My vindictive side is almost disappointed

Why so sour. Is it so bad to have the East Asian sphere represented in this game. Will do my best to get awareness.

241

On the contrary. I want a glut of new Steppe Lancer civs,
I just wanted some chaos to spark excitement.
