Hello everyone. For those of you who have no idea who I am, I’m EUIV’s Content Designer, replacing @Trin Tragula who is now Game Designer on Imperator. I started working on EUIV in January with Rule Britannia and I’m looking forward to creating content for the game for the foreseeable future.
In today’s dev diary I’ll be showing off the new formable nations coming in the 1.26 Mughals update as well as their national ideas.
Astute viewers of our weekly Dev Clash (currently on hiatus for Summer) will have noticed that Delhi is now formable. Once a mighty empire encompassing nearly the entire subcontinent, the Sultanate’s fortunes declined dramatically after Timur’s devastating invasion. It is increasingly unlikely that the ruling Sayyid dynasty will be able to hold the city as their neighbors in Jaunpur and even their own subject, Bahlul Lodi of Sirhind, seek the throne for themselves. Forming Delhi in 1.26 will not only give you access to their unique mission tree, but also to their new national ideas.
Delhian ideas:
Panjabi players without designs on the throne of Delhi may now form Punjab after converting to Sikhism. This will enable the Sikh branch of the new Indian mission tree, which focuses on the establishment of the Sikh Empire.
As shown in earlier dev diaries, we've broken up Nepal into several minor nations, with Nepal itself becoming a formable nation with a striking new map colour. While Nepal will retain its current militaristic idea set, the Nepalese minors have a set of their own.
Nepalese Princedom Ideas:
Moving on to the eastern part of the subcontinent, Orissa is now formable by nations willing to brave its vassal swarm to wipe it off the map. Forming Orissa will net you access to their unique missions, but it isn't the only option available to nations in the region. The Kingdom of Nagpur can now be formed by Central Indian nations who manage to unify the Gonds and Garjats. Historically founded by one of the Gond kingdoms, it later became dominated by the Bhonsle Marathas who made it into one of the largest Indian realms of the 18th Century. As with all our new formable nations, Nagpur has unique national ideas.
Nagpuri Ideas:
For southern Indians the Nizamate of the Deccan is now formable. Historically beginning as mere governors under Mughal rule, the Nizams would become an independent monarchy ruling over a large portion of the Deccan Plateau. Forming Deccan will give you access not only to a unique set of national ideas, but also to the Bahmani mission tree.
Deccani Ideas:
As well as Nagpur and Deccan, this snapshot of the year 1756 also shows another formable nation: the Maratha Empire. While they already had an idea set in 1.25, we've improved and revamped them for 1.26.
Maratha Ideas
Following Mewar's new mission tree will lead you down the path toward forming Rajputana, a nation destined to be a major contender in the distant future of the year 5130. Mewar itself has also acquired national ideas of its own. These Rajput ideas will bolster the strengths of your Rajput Regiments even further with their bonuses to fire damage.
Rajputana and Mewari Ideas:
Finally, forming Bharat or Hindustan will no longer be within easy reach of any nation in 1444. You must truly become the master of India before laying claim to the entire subcontinent. Though these nations have become much more difficult to form, they now share a new mission tree and each have their own national ideas.
Bharathi and Hindustani Ideas:
That's all for today! Next week @Groogy will be talking about MP teams and the new Indian siege view.

Forming Orissa will net you access to their unique missions, but it isn't the only option available to nations in the region.

hin_sepahi:0 "Sepahi"
hin_sepahi_desc:0 "Neglecting the importance of infantry soldiers has been the downfall of many would-be conquerors in India. We must ensure that our Sipahi infantry are equipped with the most effective firearms and drilled in the most modern tactics."
hin_indian_empire:0 "Imperial Indian Ambition"
hin_indian_empire_desc:0 "No ruler, be they Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, or Jain, has ever succeeded in conquering the entirety of India. We shall be the first universal rulers of India!"
hin_peacock_throne:0 "The Peacock Throne"
hin_peacock_throne_desc:0 "A great ruler must have a great throne. Adorned with every kind of precious jewel under the sun and inscribed with the names of our exalted monarchs, the Peacock Throne is truly splendorous."
hin_industrialization:0 "Proto-Industrialization"
hin_industrialization_desc:0 "Conditions in the Indian economy are ideal for rapid industrial expansion. As new technology becomes available for production, particularly in the textile industry, our pan-Indian state can ensure that it is adopted rapidly."
hin_gunpowder_empire:0 "Gunpowder Empire"
hin_gunpowder_empire_desc:0 "Mastery of gunpowder warfare is the key to mastery over India. Our cannons and muskets must strike such fear into our enemies' hearts that they will not willingly meet us directly on the battlefield. When the battle is joined, our tactics should focus on causing the greatest possible numbers of casualties and chaos in enemy ranks."
hin_persianate_court:0 "Persianate Courtly Culture"
hin_persianate_court_desc:0 "Persian language and courtly customs have become the most politically and scholarly in the Muslim world. Our own nation has enthusiastically adopted these customs, and in doing so we have attracted many skilled and educated Persian-speaking advisors whose services to our administration cannot be understated."
hin_sufism:0 "Patronize Sufi Missionaries"
hin_sufism_desc:0 "Muslim princes across the world compete to attract the wisest Sufi teachers. As our renown has grown, more of these Sufis have joined us. Towns are founded where they settle, often in previously inhospitable regions, and the local people are inspired to convert to Islam by the wisdom of the Sufis."That's all for today! Next week @Groogy will be talking about MP teams and the new Indian siege view.
