I may go back and do the Faroes, though if I do I'll take some time to figure out how to lightly hack the starting position so that they'll be pagan (as they certainly were at the new starting date, not Catholic) and have at least one shipyard (as they certainly would, being an island nation of ex-patriat Scandanavians.)

I wouldn't mind taking a stab at being the last King of Israel either, down in the mountains of Africa, though I'll probably get steamrolled early by Ethiopia or maybe Kassala (which is what happened in my game above).

Another possibility is one of the pagan kings of Africa over on the west coast.

Or one of the far northern kingdoms perhaps; not Iceland, but up at the Kola peninsula or to one side or other.

I wouldn't mind restarting Socotra, but I seriously don't know what I could do there other than offer fealty to someone else. I may reload/restart from the earliest save and look at whether it's feasible at all to try for a Berber reconquest. Possibly with a light file hack to give me a shipyard start.


First though I'm going to BE VICTORY as the Russian space minister in Buzz Aldrin's new game. :)

Nice job, Jason.  An entertaining/informative read as usual, and yoyou certainly did better than I could!  :P
