I think someone cheated yesterday though, as Korea suddenly spiked from 9 votes to 22 in three hours.
Sorry but I don't understand the validity of a poll where people can cheat. Cheating is very simple. I can register with several niks so that I can vote several time. How do you consider all this?
so when exactly is 2.3 going to be released? any specific date?

Cornelius,
I've got leaders and monarchs for Kazakhs, so if you can maybe lookup some events for them it would be nice. I have my doubts about Kazaks now, they do stop Russian AI quite nicely, but Sibeiria isn't getting colonized, I might rework their lands a bit.
BTW, event 7 isn't working properly at least yet.

IMO, or revolt events shoulds be less or stability returned to at least 0.JFYI: When Ismail comes and the stability problem goes away this means, that the Savavid dynasty has overthrown the Aq Qoyunlo (White Sheep Turks). The white sheep Turks (Rustum etc.) were not real Persians, but more Turkish-Mongolish. They occupied more or less the same provinces, though, as later Persia, that´s why we represented the change from Aq Qoyonlu to Savavid Persia as an internal struggle (-3 stability), though Ismail conquered them from his base in Kars province.

I have noticed that you have introduced for Ismail several revolt events, but I think revolts - civil wars should be before his rule to represent his struggle to gain power and not when he raises to the throne, when a +1 stability event should be instead to represent the reemergence of central authority in Persia.Library of Congress, IRAN - A country study - THE SAFAVIDS, 1501-1722
...In 1501, under their leader Ismail, the Safavids seized power in Tabriz, which became their capital. Ismail was proclaimed shah of Iran. The rise of the Safavids marks the reemergence in Iran of a powerful central authority within geographical boundaries attained by former Iranian empires. The Safavids declared Shia Islam the state religion and used proselytizing and force to convert the large majority of Muslims in Iran to the Shia sect. Under the early Safavids, Iran was a theocracy in which state and religion were closely intertwined. Ismail's followers venerated him not only as the murshid-kamil, the perfect guide, but also as an emanation of the Godhead. He combined in his person both temporal and spiritual authority...

I am icelandic, and unfortunately this is true.. although we would have preferred being colonized by some more impressive nation.. we were annexed by norway in 1262-1264 (it took some convincing) and iceland was considered being under norway untill 1814 when norway was annexed to sweden and iceland stayed part of the old denmark-norway crown.
Russia seems to have problems with Poland IMO. While they does fearly good against other naitions, Russia never seems to gobbel up Poland. This is a behaviour I'v seen in most OH games.
Persia and Moguhls. Well at first it seemed very good, the Moguhls expanded as they should. But during the 17th century they went bananas and captured several Persian provinces and kicking out the europeeans on the Indian pennisuela. While they where doing this, Persia went ahead and colonized ..... WEST AFRICA
Perhaps you should reduce their colonial dynasm.
Spain: I would like you to adopt my Spanish ai file. I'v edited yours so that Spain doesent colonize the antilles. I think that is quite historical.
Norway (Denmark): The province of Finnmark should have a level one fortress and the capital should be Vardøhus.
Iceland should be an Norwegian provinc in the free Norway scenario.

Dai Viet and Ayutthaya are unknown to China in IGC 2.2c. If they are annexed it means one party has gained new maps. At present there is no other way to stop military annexation by China. Diplo-annex can be stopped by a change of religion, but that would be very ahistorical.
