the parallels between Genghis real story of uniting clans to form a horde is chilling! this is going to be an epic game!!
I am really enjoying the limited game modes in your content so far this year. Busted secret societies and corporations are fun and all, but these laid back and less complex games (19 bloodthirsty AIs notwithstanding) are an absolute joy. Thanks!
Genghis getting barb rushed is just hilariously ironic.
Really glad Ursa went with Sun God - I love that pantheon.
You want to be working plenty of farm tiles anyway for growth so making them productive too is actually a real boost, and with so many cities that can get a watermill too I think it will really pay off.
I was literally listening to Huun-Huur-Tu earlier today, what a lovely surprise. It's honestly been a very Mongolia-themed week in general. I've been watching a show where the main character grows up in the Mongolian steppes after being lost as a child lol
Really looking forward to this series!
Loving how the Civs and map promoted different gameplay styles!
Thank you for always uploading your settings and save files! I would love to play this game along!
...but my CPU and my sanity say *NO!*
Yessss Another MAX difficulty game, !!you spoil us Ursa!!
You are welcome, Ursa, for me being one of those people who mentioned this civ to you on this tsl map 😂
Yaaay! Another civ 6 video for my UA-cam evening! Thank you so much , Ursa Ryan!
Really enjoyed watching you play the Sukritact mod. Hope you consider playing some more of his. This should be fun too.
Genghis Khan is certainly going to have a field day! Or, should I say, a steppe day?
@@UrsaRyan Yeah, I feel like that might be a steppe in the wrong direction.
Also, in case anyone likes navigable rivers, you should try the Real Rivers for random maps mod, which together with Saph's compatibility patch allows you to get fresh water navigable rivers that you can build cool dams on and get other bonuses from (to adjacent lumber mills, for example). Important rivers will finally feel critical to your empire!
Today Mongolia gets to horse around in East Asia. After settling in place, a plan is formed. With Animal Husbandry, Mongolia discovers a source of horse. A settler gets delayed in favor of a builder, and barbarians appear. Kublai introduces himself, and Ludwig soon after. The Barbarians spawn just south of Avarga. Yongle also appears, and appear quite gray today. A barbarian horde begins to assault, and it is rough. A second city gets settled on cotton, and shortly after Qin introduces himself. Bronze Working unlocks the Encampment, and the first stage of Genghis Khan's plan is in place. Ludwig shows himself weirdly competent in Asia for once, and shows his power by conquering a city from Yongle. Shortly after an annoying pillage by a barbarian, Wu Zetian is met, and thus all the Chinese leaders are revealed. Archery gets boosted just as a pantheon is earned. Expanded Pantheons allows Mongolia to select Sun God, thus boosting all resources improved by farms. The Chinese Civil War rages on, as the world enters the classical era. The advantage of fighting a horde of barbarians is that it is relatively easy to get your units a promotion. The drawback is that it slows your science down. England (ruled by Elizabeth) makes themselves known, with a nice hot pink. As Mongolia starts to fight of the Barbarian Hordes, A Russian scout finds a Mongolian city. Then a Korean scout does the same. A Barbarian camp is finally destroyed, and a few bought luxuries make Mongolia happy. A lot of farms are built, allowing Mongolia to take advantage of their pantheon and boosting Feudalism. Will Mongolia fight of the Barbarians and finally invade China? Will the Gobi Desert prove an insurmountable barrier? Will Ursa settle more sources of horses? Turn in next episode, same Ursa time, same Ursa channel!
Already giving this a like before watching because I know it'll be fire!!
Im super excited for this series! I remember the last time you played mongolia and created a railroad to rome
I didn't comment but I was definitely thinking about playing this myself after seeing your other series on this map, epic that your doing this!
I like long-form content so here's my comment to help push along the "algorithm."
OF course the barbs had to go crazy on this one - madness
throwing out a comment for the algorithm, I LOVE these deity++ and romans holiday's, these games are amazing
I’ve literally asked for this! I can’t wait to see the chaos!
I watched the first three minutes of this video, and all I can think about is a mod that creates the Tuvan Throat Singer as a unique Great Musician that only Mongolia can recruit
Oh wow I can’t wait to see this play out. Something about starting all the way against the edge of a map and just conquering your way across it is so badass
Beautiful 🤩
Huzzah!!!! Took a short break from watching but I’m so happy to be back!!🎉🎉🎉
Keep doing longform! Its great to hear your thoughts into each move to better my own play.
Keep up the TSL I love your games knowing that the inevitable madness will happen as your rage against the machine of diety++
Love this map and love waking up to your civ vids I get to enjoy with my morning tea. Thanks Ursa
Those barbs getting to Ursa at the end..."wheeeeeee" 😵💫
The Spearman coming up at the end is like when a soccer/football team clears the goal
Huzzah! The Genghis Saph's East Asia game is here!
Looking fwd to this one. Thanks for keeping up the content. I effing hate the shorts
Ursa until now has started at the bottom and middle of the map, now he starts at the top. Saph’s innovative and breathtaking TSL map combined with Ursa’s masterclass gameplay and a bit of role playing make these series incredibly entertaining!
Huzzah! I like you showing how to properly play a cavalry civ, something I can definitely improve on.
At least this start won't be plagued by sea level rise. It's also super nice to not be surrounded. Going to be a good one!
it is so satisfying watching you muller those damn barbs!
So many hawse sawse. Lasagna be damned.
Thank you for this series, already know it's gonna be glorious.
Would like to take a small moment to thank you for your content and being focused on the gameplay - not political issues etc. You are awesome!
i am still waiting for the torture session with Scythia on the huge vanilla TSL map . .
The barb start is definitely tough. But it was pretty well played you got 3 cities out despite it. It's gonna be tough with the timing. But I'll be excited to see how this goes. Thanks for suffering along with your computer to do these TSL games! And boo to shorts! We went the longest garb! Bridal trains even! We want pants that overflow our feet and drag behind us to the next postal code!
Looking forward to this!
Fantastic!
This is going to be epic. If there's one thing Ursa does well it's play Mongolia.
Mongolia is the only civ that allows the father Chingis to fight his grandson Kublai.
This comment is for the algorithm! As always, I love the content ursa
Updoots for the updoot god, comments for the comment throne all hail the algorithm undivided
This will be very fun, nothing like a good tsl historical re-enacment of sorts.
Personally prefer Kublai's version of Mongolia myself. The origional is a bit dependant on your opponents building cavalry and the cavalry you steal with Genghis dies to a city shot on the AI's turn since you get them around 20% health and then you get massive war weariness, while Kublai's economic policy card slot is very versatile that can offer you many things.
The +3 is more important than the unit steal imo - makes your pill'age so much stronger!!
@@UrsaRyan i find that it is not as critical as the diplo visibility +6/+12. It is like the Byzantium +3 Taxis ability, it is good but not as good as +10 from crusade. Of course that scales more but you get the point
From the makers of diplomatic Mongolia… Scientific Khmer
I know you've played this map a lot, but I'd enjoy seeing it at least one more time for just one thing. Qin the Unifier, performing his divine mandate.
Bring in the cavalry!
Default comment for long-format-video-algorythm-boosting
This is gonna be epic. :D
Go bears ! great video !
Once again asking for a mega khmer sim on this map, love your work!!
Screw shorts, long form content for the win! I only wear pants!!! Huzzah!
I know shorts have their place, but i much prefer a slow crawl of the entire game with good explanations. This is a game to be played slowly so you don't screw it up
Another amazing map
Everybody hit like!! Down with Shorts!
I just took off my pants and went to bed enjoying this and then 1:33 happened
Yesss
Love the Huge maps, sadly my little laptop can hardly run normal games. I end up playing in tactical view 80% of the time after turn 50
horse stonks to the moon
Monglorious!
Embassy/Delegation +6
Trading Post+6
Örtöö ability to get one more diplo visibility when having trade post +6
Mary+6
Master spy +6
Total extra combat strength available when playing Genghis Khan: +30
1 archer with garrison upgrade in each city center is my "cheapest" way of dealing with tons of barb encampment around my cities, let them drain their first wave of troops and sending my initial warrior along with the archer to guard it. Tbf, i probably fight barb alot more than fight ai, lmao
*massive representation of "SE" Asia? Japan, China?? lol Ursssaaa* *Yes, More trouser content!! I see enough shorts here in Thailand lol* 💪👍
I just want to say that I approve of the down with shorts message, hate youtube shorts, Tiktoks cross platform port. But also holy frick the barbs are comedically ridiculous here. What is happening with that? Is that a Deity++ thing too? Or did they just wake up and choose violence this game?
i love your series, but i still like the normal difficulty series more 🙂
We love trousers
Maybe with enough time, Genghis Khan will be able to build up enough momentum to go careering towards Korea!
I gotta try this: improve a luxury, sell it, remove the improvement, re-improve the luxury, sell it..."only" 3 builder charges...if it works...
Removing an improvement doesn’t take up a build charge so you could do it one more time (if it actually works)
TSL Mongolia? Huzzah!
Huzzah!
