The Hopi were a Pueblo people that had settled down and lived in a nation that was based on peace and getting along with neighbors. The Hopi believed in peace and that it was up to them, by will of the Kachinas, their guardian spirits, to ensure peace in whatever way possible, even war. “The True Hopi people declare that Hopi will be a force which brings about world change.” Hopi Throwing Spearman- A spear throwing infantry unit that doesn’t have as good a range as the Aztec Eagle Warrior, but hold up better in combat and have a decent attack. They are good against cavalry. Hopi Snake Priest- A Hopi shaman that follows the Snake chief and conducts religious ceremonies like the Snake Dance that can heal ally units and repair buildings. They are also good against enemy settlers. Unique Technologies The Apache were fierce warriors both admired and feared by the U.S. army in expansion to the west. Apache were unique in that instead of using guerilla tactics like most Native Americans they used strategy on the battlefield. The Apache had no want for expansion, unlike the Iroquois or Aztecs, but anyone that tried to invade on them were attacked and driven back. Apache Wolf Warrior- Apache used to hunt buffalo by covering themselves with wolfskins and getting close the Buffalo then ambushing them taking down several before the heard panicked. They would also raid in wolfskins in the night when visibility was poor so they could be mistaken for real wolves. They have a good attack against hand infantry and hand cavalry. Kiowa Raider- cavalry that is good against settlers and other cavalry. The Apache and the Comanche were very bonded people, hunting, trading. And warred together. The Kiowa were extremely good cavalry riders and Apache raids tended to be extremely brutal. Unique Technologies: An extremely hardy culture to the cold and snowy Alaskan tundra that were very different from other Native American tribes. The Inuit were extremely enduring living in such and extreme climate and unpredictable weather changes. Inuit were a peaceful unless provoked or attacked, then they would exact revenge by raiding the offending tribe. Dog Sled- a fast moving cavalry that has a high attack against infantry, yet can be killed by other cavalry pretty easily. Dog Sleds were used for hunting, trade, battle, and recreation and the Inuit were masters of using the strange chariot. Dog Sleds have an Inuit warrior in the back that attacks using a harpoon, which also does good damage vs. buildings. Unique Technologies Kayak- a unique Inuit boat, the design not found anywhere else; it was extremely fast and buoyant, and used in hunting and warfare. The Inuit were expert sailors and mariners and grew into great traders with other tribes because of the whalebone, fat, and ivory industry. A great and powerful civilization, lost to history as possibly the Americas most forgotten culture. The Taino were a seafaring people that dominated the Caribbean and traded with the Aztec, Maya, and Inca. They had formed a system of smaller governing states that made up the Taino Empires, their chieftains were known as the Caciques and considered descendants of the gods. The Taino built their nation on economy, and were fierce warriors in keeping the barbaric Caribs in the Lesser Antilles, as opposed to the Taino’s Greater Antilles. Baira Archer- A Taino bowman that fires flaming arrows at infantry and does slow, gradual damage over time. Taino archers were highly acclaimed for their skills and attached brightly colored feathers to their bows and arrows, thinking the arrows would fly as accurate and far as the birds. Manaya Warrior- a hatchet carrying infantry unit good against cavalry and buildings. Unique Technologies The Toltec were an ancient culture that contributed greatly to the Aztec and Mayan empires. Toltecs were a warlike, yet civilized people that may have sacked Teotihuacan and given birth the dominant Mesoamerican god Quetzalcoatal and also introducing human sacrifice to Mesoamerica. Many Aztecs claimed to be the ancestors of these proud, powerful, and great Empire. Toltec Dawn Warrior- Toltec knights of the Dawn god Tlahuizcalpanteuctli, who was symbolized as the planet Venus, that have four statues supporting the House of Dawn in Tula, the old Toltec capital. They attack with two spears in combat, and are good against melee units. Unique Technologies A precursor civilization that did for the Inca what the Toltecs did for the Maya and Aztecs. The Aymara where the first dominate culture in the Andean area, but they were conquered by the Incas as that empire grew in power. Tiahuanaco was the centered region of the Aymaran culture. Aymaran Slinger- The traditional weapon of the mountainous area the Aymara called home, the sling was a very successful ranged weapon that required less materials to make than a bow, because wood was scarce, and less force than an atlatl. Slingers are good against buildings and good against melee infantry, but they fall very easily to cavalry. Unique Technologies Africa will be classified into four maps: Sahara- a desert like map with many gold and silver mines, insuring that you don’t ever run of Coin, yet limited wood, but plenty of animals to hunt. Congo- The Congo River weaves a random path every time and is rich in fish to gather; yet the Congo lacks many gold and silver mines. Large rich forests cover the map and several Baka or Maasai villages are in the clearings. Karoo- a semi-desert map that has huge herds of zebra and antelopes crossing randomly from one side of the map to the other, the area has high cliffs and some fertile spots where cows can be found grazing. The dominant power in South Africa at the time of British and Dutch colonization, the Zulu had risen from a group of tribesmen that spoke the same language into a great and powerful king under the rule of the first Zulu king, Shaka. The Zulu were very much similar to the Romans in that they had disciplined battle tactics, and very good weapons, the Zulu even used a spear and shield in the manner the Roman Legionnaires used the Gladius and shield. Iklwa- a Zulu spearman that uses a large cowhide shield and a short stabbing spear known as the Assegai. The Zulu warriors were highly trained by Shaka and those that had been trained by him. To prevent uprisings and inspire a strong sense of loyalty, Zulu warriors became part of the army at the age of fourteen. Iwisa- a close range Zulu siege weapon that uses the knob-kerrie, which is a clubbing stick with a metal knob on the end. The knob-kerries would deliver painful blows in melee combat and shatter wooden weapons. Isikhulu- Zulu warrior that name means “great one.” The Isikhulu were the high-ranking warriors decorated for bravery or service. Once you became an Isikhulu then you were granted a spot on the Council of Elders and given an Ingxotha, which was a heavy brass armband designating an outstanding Zulu warrior. The Izikhulu fight with rifles from volley mode, but switch to crane shields and a spear in melee mode. Unique Technologies The other major power in the South African region and competitor of the Zulu, the Xhosa were a continuous pain to the Dutch and then British settlers in the region. The Xhosa had fallen from status somewhat because of famines and the growth of the Zulu. The Xhosa originally encountered the first Europeans in the early 1700s and were at conflicts with them ever since. Red Clay Warrior- Xhosa warriors often covered themselves in red clay before a battle, making them stand out so as to avoid confusion. The Xhosa Red Clay Warriors are good at raiding with an advantage vs. settlers, but they are also good against cavalry. The Xhosa military were similar to the Greeks, as opposed to the Zulu Roman short spear; the Xhosa used long spears like phalanxes to charge opponents. Unique Technologies The Maasai were a war-like nation located in eastern Africa that showed extreme resistance to white settlers. The Maasai were very haughty, arrogant, and stubborn people; yet these qualities were what made them great. The Maasai all but conquered all, they scorned the plowshare and the farming way of life, the entire Maasai economy was based on their cattle, which they believed were a gift only to the Maasai. In this superior mind set the Maasai would either make you submit to their rule, or you would be destroyed. Morani- a warrior is dressed in a lion-skin that does large amount of damage to cavalry. Traditionally for the Maasai, before becoming a warrior you must first kill a lion. This is no small task and it made sure the weak were weeded out of the Maasai ranks to make their nation stronger and more powerful. Unique Technologies A common stereotyped culture, the Baka were not dwarf-sized people and the term pygmy is derogative and offensive. Baka measure slightly shorter than most people coming in average 1.5 meters. (Which is roughly about five feet) Baka were rainforest dwellers and made their living off of the rich and bountiful forest around them. Baka were the most advanced of the short rainforest tribes, with their own language as complex as Bantu (language of the Zulu and Xhosa), and traded with many African nations like the Maasai. The Baka were more technologically advance than most people thought, having great medicinal practices by harvesting the helpful plants from the rainforest, and many non-pygmy cultures wanted their healing capabilities. Jungle Stalker- The Baka didn’t have any connection to China, the inventor of the crossbow, or the flow of the weapon to Europe, but they did invent their own. Baka warriors laced their darts with poison to make sure that one shot was lethal. Jungle Stalkers have a special ability of being cloaked when in trees for one minute, until they attack and become visible again, which makes them a good ambushing or skirmishing squad. They have a good damage vs. buildings and infantry. Unique Technologies The Mali Empire was one of the great Sahelian kingdoms of Africa, the other two being Ghana and Songhai. Mali had expanded its borders and became the dominant force in Northern Africa. At the height of its power Mali controlled half of the world’s gold. Mali’s capital was Timbuktu and it was a great place of Muslim learning. By the time set of AOE3 though, Mali was failing and the new power of Songhai was rising. Iron Rider- an armored horse and armored rider that does good damage vs. other cavalry. Mali’s main power was drawn from its cavalry, being able to forward anywhere from 50,000 to 200,000 riders at one time. The Mali cavalry were nicknamed “Iron Riders” because of their armored horses. This would have slowed down horses, but Mali horse armor was designed to be light and strong, so the horse didn’t suffer much slowing down. Camelry- The shock troops of Mali cavalry, camelry could ride faster in the desert and provided a better mount in close range fighting. Although both the mount and camel are unarmored the scimitar-like blade of the rider is a strong enough weapon to kill most infantry before they have a chance to do damage to the rider. Unique Technologies The last of the three Sahelian kingdoms, Songhai was the greatest. The were unmatched in an army size, with large amounts of infantry, cavalry, and a good navy, the Songhai Empire took over where Mali left off and systematically conquered almost all of Western Africa, before falling to Morocco. Songhai was one of the world’s greatest Muslim Kingdom’s, but at the AOE3 timeline you have to help Songhai achieve that. Gulham- A cavalry archer that fires very fast and is good against infantry. The horse archer of Songhai was called the Gulham, and they employed a large variety of combat tactics. Because of the angle of the bow and the angle of the quiver, the Gulhmas could fire multiple arrows at once very fast, in almost a constant stream. In combat the Gulham uses an axe called a tabarzan. Armored Maceman- Songhai infantry consisted mainly of macemen and swordsmen, but macemen were valued highly for their defensive capabilities against cavalry, standing in solid ranks as the cavalry made their charge. Although they were less good against infantry the macemen were an essential part of the Songhai army, they use large shields to protect against arrow fire. Unique Technologies Asia will be divided into five maps. Himalayas- a mountainous region where hunting animals are scarce as well as wood, but there are rich pocket forests dotted throughout the landscape. Ganges- a high resource map, the fish-laden Ganges River winds throughout most of the map and connects several good defensible points and Indian and Tibetan villages, providing securing these positions crucial. Hokkaido- one large island surrounded by whale and fish rich waters with many coastal Ainu towns dotting the beaches and a large forest covering the map. Archipelago- several random sized islands, or a single landmass with excellent naval opportunities, and rich forests and mines. Beth Nahrain- a dry middle-eastern map with two rivers that peak out from the map, laden with fish. There are numerous mines and an average amount of hunting animals, yet wood is very scarce and should be conserved. A prosperous nation between the 7th and 10th Centuries, Tibet repulsed many Mongol and Chinese invasions. During the time of AOE3 Tibet had fallen out of the Asian superpowers into a peaceful country sculpted in belief of the Tibetan Buddhism. Tibetan cavalry is perhaps the strongest in all of Asia, with tough and enduring mountain horses that can run as fast across treacherous rocky terrain as over a grassy knoll. Khampa- Tibetan cavalry that patrolled the border keeping out all invaders as the unofficial guardians of Tibet. They were rumored to be faster than the wind and struck fear into Mongolian and Chinese soldiers. They were a widespread band of horsemen that belonged to the Khampa like Teutonic Knight belonged to the Teutonic Order. Kartika Monk- Tibetan Warrior monks were famous for their complete honing of their desired weapon, whether is be a sword, axe, throwing dart, bow, or anything else, few were as proficient in the usage. Kartika monks favor an axe inset with precious gems. Unique Technologies India during this time was a set of fractured kingdoms fighting for control. Most Europeans established East India trading colonies, but the British ruthlessly expanded upon the weakened empires of India. Because the Mughal Empire had been only located in the Northern part, and The Maratha Empire had all but driven them out, there was no central power to unify India against the British, and India became one of the most significant British colonies. Pindari- Irregular Indian horsemen that rode throughout most of the Indian empires. They were normally used as shock troops to break up enemy formations. The unique thing about Pindari is that they received no pay, getting what they plundered and pillaged for their salary. Because of this salary method, you receive 50 coin for every unit Pindari kill, and 150 for every building they destroy. Pindari are good against light infantry and light cavalry, but tend to be less good against heavier and more enduring troops. Maratha Sniper- The Maratha Empire’s gunmen were elite warriors trained to be very accurate from far distances. The Maratha Empire was defeated by the British, but their troops fought valiantly even after the Empire collapsed. Maratha snipers have a good range, but can hardly put up a fight against infantry, taking down cavalry fairly easily. Unique Technologies The Syriacs give the Ottoman Empire a reason to be in the colonial aspect of AOE3. The Syriacs are ancient inhabitants of Syria, stretching back to biblical times and beyond. For three thousand years they have been inhabitants of the Middle East, and they once dominated the Silk Road trade. The Ottomans continually pushed them back as the Empire expanded, yet never truly attacked, but genocide was lead against them in fear they would side with Russia against the Ottoman Empire. Narkabtu- Syriac chariot that is a good cavalry against other cavalry. Syriac cavalry were extremely fast and their swords and arrows cut down enemy ranks better than any normal horseman could. Narkabtu are very fast and good in close range as well as against cavalry from afar, yet tend to be weak against most gunpowder units and artillery. Unique Technologies The Taiwan Aboriginals were very advanced for being classified as aborigines. They lived in large villages of up to 1,500 people built on defendable terrain, and several smaller villages scattered as suburbs of these bigger ones. The Taiwanese were not conquered by the Europeans, but were more or less assimilated into Chinese Japanese, and various others like the Spanish and Dutch. Pingpu Bowman- The plains were populated with more civilized Taiwanese than the mountains. They made complex villages that were based on both naval and land activities. The main contingent of the armies were formed of archers, that were trained Spartan style, making them very professional and high performance troops. Kaoshan Headhunter- The Kaoshan were regarded as barbarians by the plains Taiwanese Aborigines, they were still a civilized culture. The main practice of valor and bravery for the highland tribes was headhunting. The headhunting was not terribly cruel as once the head had been collected the fatherless family, if the victim had a family, were raised as complete members of the tribe. Kaoshan are good against enemy cavalry. Unique Technologies The Philippines were a Spanish colony, but before that had been colonized by the Malays, Chinese, and Japanese. The Philippines were divided into several kingdoms that fought with each other like the Greek city-states. They were major trading partners of many Asian kingdoms and empires, and were known throughout the Asian naval industry as expert sailors and fearsome pirates. Filipino inhabitants provided more of a challenge than the Spanish would have liked, and would almost never submit to the foreign rule. Their gold was desired highly by Europeans because of how the Filipinos mixed it with other minerals to make it appear flawless. Kampilan Swordsman- a Filipino warrior that uses a two-handed sword and is good against cavalry. The Kampilan’s hilt resembles a crocodile and is normally decorated extravagantly. Kampilan were weapons of the highest caliber warriors and could outfight most of the Spanish swordsmen that came to the Philippines. The Kampilan was the weapon that killed Ferdinand Magellan as he attempted to sail around the world. Lantaka- the precursor of the gatling gun, the Lantaka was a cannon mounted on a flexible swivel that was used to track fast moving targets easily. The Spanish were given so much trouble with these that they equipped all of their ally Filipino native ships with Lantakas to counter those on the enemy ships. Lantakas are good against cavalry and fire faster than normal cannons and falconets, yet are weaker. Unique Technologies The Ainu are the original inhabitants of the Japanese islands. They were continually pushed away and came to be at Hokkaido Island. The Ainu are a very unique people, with almost no resemblance to the Japanese. The Ainu have a very different culture, with different warrior codes, and a writing system like nothing else in the world. The ancient Ainu culture is mostly lost to the modern world as Japan ruthlessly assimilated the Ainu into their own way of life. Compared to the grand Japanese cities and ports the Ainu were somewhat tribal with tattoos, living in a reed hut, and never a really unified people, but that doesn’t mean at all that the Ainu were uncivilized. Emush Swordsman- As opposed to the Japanese katanas and other swords, Ainu used a shorter saber-like weapon. Although Ainu never won a war against Japan, their warriors were certainly brave and a match for a samurai. Emush Swordsmen are pretty fast infantry that are good against other infantry. Unique Technologies There will only be two map sets in Oceania Australia- A cost runs across the top part of the map ensuring naval opportunities, and the interior is filled with strange beasts the likes of which Europeans have never seen, including kangaroos, koalas, dingos, and wallabies. There will be many Australian Aboriginal settlements across the maps, and several other trading posts. New Zealand- A forest and rich resource region, there will be Maori Pa, which are their fortresses, able to be controlled by the largest army in its vicinity. Once controlled, it will act like a forest and train Maori warriors and cavalry and infantry. The mostly peaceful Aboriginals of Australia were in their Stone Age when the Europeans came to settle their lands. Although they were primitive, they used tools as good or more complex than the European Stone Age, so they were not completely uncivilized in comparison. Aborigines never wanted to fight the British settlers, but only resorted to raiding and violence when their lands or property were taken. The Aboriginals had a rich and amazing culture and mythology, seemingly unheard of this early in their time period and completely different from the world. Boomerang Thrower- The often stereotyped image of the returning boomerang is more of a children’s toy and hunting tool than a weapon. The boomerangs used in war were simple, yet very effective killing instruments. Their design meant they could be thrown as far as a musket could fire without much effort, just a simple flick of the wrist. Boomerangs came in a very large array from very large and heavy ones to destroy buildings, to hooked ones to scatter enemies. Uyulng- known as the shark-tooth fighting knife, they were pieces of flat wood with grooves inset for shark teeth to fit in. The teeth were filed until they reached razor-blade sharpness and could easily draw blood. A string is looped around one end and used like a flail, holding the string and striking with the knife. The Uyulng are good against cavalry. Elember Warrior- known as “the killing club” the Elember was a very strange weapon. On one side it appears to be a completely normal club, but on the other side it is sharp and serrated like a sword. Elember are good against buildings and cavalry. Unique Technologies Maori are the inhabitants of New Zealand and descendants from Peloponnesian settlers. The Mari were stationary people being farmers and fisherman. Art was a high place in the culture and tattoos were considered a sign of rank. The Maori built fortresses in warfare called Pa, and their way of warfare was completely different to the British. The Maori did openly have mars like the British and they have come to be known as the Musket Wars. Maori were strange in that they hardly ever used missile weapons, preferring to use hand-to-hand combat. Taiaha Staffman- Although the Taiaha looks like a spear in almost all regards, it is really a staff weapon, although it did have a pointed end. Taiaha are around five feet long, or one and two thirds meters long. Taiaha are a good counter against cavalry. Rakau- a Maori warrior that uses a two handed weapon made of sharpened whalebone. The Rakau is slightly curved, and is used as a double-handed weapon is Maori fighting styles, being classes as a heavy weapon it is used only by the strongest warriors. Rakau are very deadly if they can get in close range. Imu- The Maori Ballistae, it was used for tree felling purposes originally, but then was adapted to warfare as a siege weapon. Several men manned the ballistae and when the large arrow had been pulled all the way back, it sped through enemy ranks, decimating them. Imu are artillery good against other artillery and infantry. Unique Technologies Well, there you have it and I hope you liked it. Feedback is welcome, and I value your opinions. Also I worked hard on this so I would like some replies.
