Map Issues
 All issues with the current map shall be posted under here.

The Mod Staff has worked hard to give you the best starting map possible, but we acknowledge that it is based upon a 1400 base map with (most) necessary corrections having been made. Please take a minute or two to look over the map sometime this weekend and post any inconstitencies you see so they may be corrected.

Thank You, 17:29, February 13, 2016 (UTC)

I assume you based the starting map off this. There is a unified state in northeastern India, when it should be three.

Consul Ioshua (Talk)  02:29, February 14, 2016 (UTC) As many of you know, I have a lot of SVG maps at my disposal, but it's very difficult to find a format that is easy to share on the wiki. So after a few frustrating hours last night, I was finally able to export a World map of 1517 as a PNG and uploaded it to Imgur (it's too big for the wiki):

World Map 1517

From this map, I'm going to make some alterations to the signups list with Sat's permission I would like to thank Feud  for making Borealia possible  17:47, February 14, 2016 (UTC)

Two issues with the Papal States. I own the one state next to the HRE that is to my North, and I also own Avinigon

Map I made so the new map in a few years can know how much i expanded. - Scar



















1518 – While Persia is suffering assault by many powers, Kabulistan has offered the chieftains of Sistan, (the province beneath Kabul) the chance to join the Timurid Empire and raid across the Hindu Kush as equals. Sistan was a tribute of Persia, however reluctantly and the offer of safety   and the chance of doing so during war, thus avoiding conflict, may please them.

There is an issue regarding Württemberg in the HRE. I've looked at maps of the HRE from around the same time period, and the southern regions are inaccurate on our map. Württemberg should be located directly to the west of Bavaria. —  The  Tim   Man  (TSW • AH • MGW • <font color="#006400">Contribs ) 06:51, February 16, 2016 (UTC)

Moderator Applications
An application should be formatted like the following;

* Username & Link

** Games Modded Before

* Date Joined

** Edits

* A couple sentences on why you should be on my mod team.

For example, like this;


 * Saturn1257
 * Second Age of Imperialism (Never started)
 * February 22nd, 2014
 * 4,210
 * I would like to be a moderator for Nintey Five Thesis because this wiki hasn't seem any high-quality map games since the begining of PM. If you select me, I can help with mod events, plausibility modding, and overall make the game better.

 * I will bring extensive experience and dedication to the overall functioning of this game. I will work to create a PM3-style set of pages and templates (as I did early on for that game), actively help update the map, and assist in the creation of mod events that fairly create plausibility. Additionally, I have a deep understanding of Early Modern European history, and would be an asset to the moderator team in that sense.

 * Took a long break from the wiki but ive modded PMIII, created multiple games, and been mods of multiple successful games (a few of which have only died cause of some circumstances i couldnt help) Ive gotten alot better and grown up a bunch since being a PM Mod and am much more open to criticism and argument. Would love to join this promising Mod Team.

 * I can make maps, I can do algos, I can evaluate argumentation and mediate conflicts. I, unlike most of my fellow applicants, am not playing as a potentially major power or any nation at all. (See Feud, Pita, Nate, Kras, FP), meaning I can do any algo, mod response, etc with not interest because I don't have a nation. I'm also a professional hardass so I can't be bribed or persuaded by emotion. I can help write the rules, design the algo, etc. To continue the me circle jerk, I have a background in early European history,specially the 16-1800s. Edge will make AH great again. #VoteEdge1517

 * You all know who I am. I am the darkness in the night, the slippery part of the stairs you avoid, that chilly feeling you get when you eat bad oysters. I am, Viva! But on a more serious note, I have a good understanding of the period the game is taking place in, and a considerable knowledge on sources to check should there be any issues with the plausibility of the nations being played by members of the game. You can trust me. Really. You can.

 * I think I'm honest enough to be quite unbiased and have just about never used mod powers to grant me benefit. I'm a dutiful map maker and I'm good at creative moderator events. I know a fair amount of history and old technology and demography from all around the world so I think I'd be good at ASB hunting. I'm also an experienced MG moderator and I think I reasonably and fairly intervene during player conflict. I think I could bring quite a lot to this game in terms of both flavor and order.

However, if a person decides to take the inititave and make such a map, I would automatically let that person choose whatever nation they please, and would also recieve honorary modship status. Sat (Talk to me!) 23:42, January 31, 2016 (UTC)

I agree that a PM-style map will greatly elevate the quality of this game. I don't have the time right to now to do the whole thing, but I have made a substantial start (which can be found here). I used the base PM3 map and made updates to the following regions: All other regions (notable, Africa, Asia, Africa, the HRE) still need updating. I'm using the original image Sat posted as well as other maps (including EUIV in 1517) to update the map. Other users who'd like a PM3-style map, please feel free to pick up where I left off. If not, I'll keep working on it later, but a collaboration would be much more preferable. 19:54, February 1, 2016 (UTC)

Sign-Ups
Now, I am offically allowing sign ups to be opened at 5:00 (EST). Here's how the sign-ups system will work.

If a user wants your nation and is more experience than you, you may be removed and replaced with that player. The entire system will be based off of edits. If you disagree that you should be removed, come to me and I'll decide. I can also remove you from a nation slot that I feel you aren't capable of. Sat (Talk to me!) 02:55, February 3, 2016 (UTC)

Do NOT let history repeat itseself
I personally think that these are a few things that we can do to prevent the mistakes of the PM series.
 * Have a vasalization algorithm. I remember that there were many ASB vasalizations, and people vasalizatized states 2/3 of their size in three turns.
 * No massive attacks on one person. PMII seemed towards the end people would take turns ganging up a people.
 * Colinazation algorithm? In PMII there was ETHOPIAN CANADA.
 * Have a OTL alliances list. In the beginning of PMIII Poland Lituanina attacked Moscow, and because Ms was best friends with the Moscow player Edboy, he made all of Germany attack PL. I don't think that Moscow and Germany were OTl allies.
 * Limit number of alliances, there was a time where Feud was allied with everyone. Nuff said.
 * Make it about FUN, and remember this rule from I can't remember which map game series. "Not everyone can have a Liberial powerful nation". Have fun making your nation like OTL Monaco, or many other cool unpowerful nations.

Calm your titties Oct. You make it sound like the Ethiopian Canada was implausible. I had the ships, technology, and capability to colonize it. Mind you, let's not be selective here. There was a Chinese Alaska, German Armenia, Japanese West Africa, and Indian Argentina. They all had the ability to colonize and they did it. So you're really shooting yourself in the foot here when is selectively pick points to rationalize your argument, especially when your argument has no real leg to stand on.

I agree with Viva. I do not like these rules as they limit the game's possibilities and restricts them to a similar path as OTL. Just cause European powers colonised the Americas doesn't mean they're the only ones that have the capabilities to do so. ~<font color="Red">There was a candy,  and it said,  "Bruh, I'm coming for you, bruh. Oi, g'day mate you wanna mate?" ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Country in the Philippine archipelago
That's the Kingdom of Tondo right? ~Candy

At this point, the Phillipines is highly disorganized and made up of numerous small, competing polities (and, technically, not even yet called the Phillipines). Its therefore coloured dark grey, representing disorganized territory. Much of it is under heavy Bruneian influence; Tondo is effectively a Bruneian puppet state in the early 1500s. Tondo, Maynila and Namayan are the largest of these small states at this point. Shikata ga nai! 13:11, February 7, 2016 (UTC)

Contrary to your statement, the Kingdom of Tondo actually comprised that whole grey region. And if the grey region did represent disorganised territory then why not Mindanao, parts of Visayas, and North and Central Luzon coloured grey as well? All of those regions had some kind of tribal/indianised/sinicised/islamicised political entity. (picture: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Philippines_(pre_1521).jpg) ~<font color="Red">There was a candy,  and it said,  "Bruh, I'm coming for you, bruh. Oi, g'day mate you wanna mate?" ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

That's patently false. That map is anachronistic and shows states that definitely didn't exist in 1517; i wouldn't rely on it. At some point in the early 1500s (probably pre-1517), Brunei attacked, defeated and subjugated Tondo, founded the in the area, and placed it under the control of Malay puppet rajahs. At this point, Manila proper and the immediate region around it is ruled by these rajahs (although the old Tondo dynasty possesses some symbolic power) and effectively a Bruneian satellite. The old dynasty retained some power and competed with Maynila for trade and regional dominance. A third, less Islamicized polity,, also held power in the region. Thus, there were three rulers in conflict by the Spaniards after their conquest of the region in 1571; one for each kingdom. All these polities are too small to wield power outside tiny heartlands, and their influence overlaps; therefore, the area is dark gray, since no centralized government holds power.

1517 World Map
Hey, just sharing this here in case it might be helpful for the playthrough! Its a 1517 map from the game Europa Universalis IV. Might help people visualise which nations truly owned what. :)

Simmy1993 (talk) 17:07, February 11, 2016 (UTC)

e Europa Universalis IV, the map isn't really detailed enough and misses a lot of stuff in Asia and the Holy Roman Empire. Also tribes in the Americas weren't states like that. Nlenhardt (talk) 20:21, February 12, 2016 (UTC)

I was only suggesting it as an option, perhaps to help people get their heads around some of the trickery borders, the map also comes with a black template showing 'de jure' areas. Was just a thought, sorry if I came off presumptive.

There are versions of the game that allow the filling out of the wastelands which I could grab, as I said I added it more for people to use to keep track of their own realms and other peoples, rather than trying to usurp the actual map.

Dropped Nations
I'm considering joining, and had a question. Are the rules about nation inactivity the same as PM? 5 turns without activity and another player can claim the nation? Cour *talk* 17:39, February 15, 2016 (UTC)

Algorithm
The current algorithm is fundamentally flawed, placing far too much weight on some categories and completely ignoring others. Here's an example. In OTL, the Ottomans easily crushed the Mamluks with a combination of much superior technology and 3:1 troop numbers. However, with this algo, the Mamuluks successfully drive off the Ottomans. This is in contrast to my algorithm that I used for AvA: Resurrection, which successfully simulated three conflicts in three different eras: the Ottoman-Mamluk War, Napoleon's invasion of Russia, and the Nazi invasion of France.

Ottomans

 * Location: Near = +20
 * Motive: Political hegemony = +7
 * Support: Medium cavalry support = +10
 * Troops: 150,000 = +15
 * Technology: +5%
 * Chance: 5
 * Total: 57 + 5% = 59.85

Mamluks

 * Location: At = +25
 * Motive: Wipe out nation = +10
 * Defensive: Heavy fortification = +20
 * Support: Medium cavalry = +10
 * Troops: 50,000 = +5
 * Chance: 5
 * Total: 75

Thus, I propose that we adopt a new, more comprehensive algorithm instead of the one we have currently.

PitaKang- (Talk to me | Kill count: 8)

I support Pita's algo. When it comes down to it, the algo is all about simulating realistic, real-life conflits. His algo can do that successfully. Cour *talk* 17:57, February 15, 2016 (UTC)

I still have yet to see how they were all that successful. In general the algorithm needs to be on a battle by battle to incur the real depth of it. I refuse to see blanket wars where a single algo decides the fate of an entire empire. Thats ridiculous. In general we can all discuss what needs to be changed but developmental scores that fall off cause someone left for a weekend are another issue i have. Im open to change, but i refuse to budge on battles, and development scores. They cause too many problems and those kinds of algos cause all sorts of problems -Feud

Ottoman-Persian War

 * Aggressor: Ottoman Empire (with Georgia)
 * Defender: Safavid Persia
 * Reason: To claim Mesopotamia as far as the Zaragos Mountains for Sunni Islam
 * Troops: 25,000 Cavalry, 1,300 Jannissaries, 7 mortors, and 100,000 footsoldiers
 * Year Began: 1517 (technically it started in 1514 with the Battle of Chaldarin )

Bukhara-Persian War

 * Aggressor: Bukhara
 * Defender: Safavid Persia
 * Reason: To expand territory into eastern Persia
 * Troops: 20,000
 * Year Began: 1517

Timurid Siege of Haozdar

 * Aggressor: Kabul
 * Defender: Sistan
 * Reason: Refusal of ultimatum
 * Troops: 15,000 (incl field artillery)
 * Year Began: 1519

Tier Query
Hey guys, the tier system looks great! I'm just curious why Bukhara is in a higher tier than Timurid Kabulistan, especially militarily as Kabul was one of the few powers in the region outside the Ottomans and Persians to use firearms and cannon. Not being that person who is trying to raise their own nation, but the Timurids weren't so low on the military scale. They did after all conquer most of Northern India within the next decade, while Bukhara has just gone through a ruler change in 1510 after a crushing defeat and was still recovering. I really only bring it up because i'm in the same tier as Sistan which was essentially tribal land owners who paid homage to Persia.

Thanks for listenin'!

How does a nation advance a tier? KawaiiKame (talk) 00:50, February 16, 2016 (UTC)

To be clear, I'm not asking for my nation to be improved, I'm simply pointing out that either I'm in the same category with Bukhara and Sistan in my current tier, or I'm in Bukhara's tier. I'm not disputing the system, or asking how to get better, simply making a case that the Timurids were not a remote, disorganized power like Sistan. Simmy1993 (talk)

Why are Kashgar and Turfan in the second tier? For all their sometime wealth and power as former parts of the Chagatai Khanate, by this point they're poor, underpopulated oasis kingdoms. More importantly, a lot of Asian (especially Indian and Southeast Asian) states seem to have been shoved into the bottom tier with tribal states. Maybe an additional tier to separate the two groups would be beneficial?Shikata ga nai! 01:44, February 16, 2016 (UTC)

I agree with having another tier to seperate Southeast Asian and tribal states because Southeast Asian states are more advanced than tribal states. KawaiiKame (talk) 01:59, February 16, 2016 (UTC)

@Simmy I'm not particularly well-versed on that area in this time period, so I'll take your word for it and bump the Timurids up a spot.

@Kawaii you just make a request and give evidence for why you think you should move up.

Explanation of the algorithm:
In order to win a war, one side must build up a cumulative score differential of +30. What that means is that over the years, a nation must win by enough points to add up to 30 to force the other side to surrender. This can take 1 year or 20 years - just however long is needed to build up that score differential. More nations can jump in on either side each year, meaning you might win one year and lose the next.

The algorithm itself can be found here: Rules (Ninety-Five Theses Map Game)
