    I once had a crazy game where I was playing as transoxiana and the ottomans kicked the bucket early and was eaten up by Byzantium, Georgia and surprisingly the Knights. Mamelukes didn't have much new territory from the ottomans but they did have the ability to survive the ottoman yoke and they too went into Australia and Indonesia. That game was crazy, the poles even stole Constantinople.
