Honestly this was a lot more interesting than the bigger nations. Enjoyed the strategizing and using less commonly used elements (cav as a small nation? forts??) to your advantage.
It is. I played it all the time pre ajam event for the timmys and pre the ottos intervening there and that start was way harder. Still fun as hell but the difficulty has declined significantly. In the old version, one wrong move and your screwed
Ardabil is a fun run, my issue with is that it leads to zero permanent modifiers and the worst of the exclusive missions, the Legacy of the Safavid governemnt reform is weak as f especially as Zoroastrian so that doesn't make me want to continue the run beyond the formation of persia.
maybe you should not go zoroastrian because that wasnt how it panned out historically. legacy of SAFAVID is supposed to work with shia muslim states :)) its a very strong reform!
Thing is, let's say you want to do Shia Persia, you can do that as Timur which is kinda cheating, but you will get +20% CCR and other geat modifiers, while Ardabil gets only this ... and it's not bad but not as good.
@@PH_777 why stop there? start as oirat for more modifiers? yknow some people like to do harder starts or lore based plays. i know its not a sweaty answer but its a sandbox game. safavid reform gives a lot of CL from clergy everytime you sieze and more manpower from holy war button i think. its great for shia playthrough. not everything in the game needs to be ccr for it to be strong.
@@Suhaschintalatotally agree - games don't always have to be 'how big can I blob'. Sometimes it's nice to play really tall, play historic borders etc. etc.

Playmaker: "Ardabil is my favourite nation in 1.37"
Also Playmaker: *turns every campaign into an Aztecs campaign*
Ardabil feels like it got easier after Timurids were updated, especially compared to when they were first updated.

i thought this was going to be about austria or aztecs
Credit to the guy who recommended ardabil to persia
Recommend?
There is an achievement for like 5 years
It's isn't a hidden interesting choice by any means
That's what happened historically my guy
@@Rosemarie_and_tomatodude chill it was a joke, I just said he should play this campaign😂 and he did
@timo7873 so... you are crediting yourself? Lol
@@juncheok8579 correct

Only if you form Persia

Really cool game, however I still think you should try Austria. Its a really fun an unique nation that I haven’t seen anyone play before 😢
bro is allergic to loans but still somehow a beast
Nice video, you should try qara quyunlu into eransharh for a massive cav insane army. 😉
damn, ardabil is so fucking cool to play, i loved
i love playing ardadil
OPM to persia is just the beginning
you DARE go zoroastrian as ardabil
😭did this before any update to the persian region
on which difficulty setting do you play?
Normal, as voted by my community!
It got 10 likes! POG 😄
Go Zoroastrian and form Eranshahr please 🙏
this guys tryna spoil Part 2 SMH
@@Theplaymaker57 I was just making sure you had a full Ardabil experience 💜
Eranshahr is truly a terrible tag... now that Scandinavia got updated then it makes it easily the worst endgame tag
Using forts? Crazy work...
you mean arbidil right 😂
How DARE you say it's not ULM
0/10 no sideburns
Does Transoxiana and the Timurid vassals have mission trees?
No
No but tag switching is insanely easy as those countries
Facecam= unwatchable
