Mewar Never Changes: An EU4 Guide

War. War never changes. The Romans waged war to gather slaves and wealth. Amir built a Timurid empire from its lust for gold and territory. Tee Jagiellonian shaped a battered Poland-Lithuania into an economic superpower. But war never changes. In the 14th century, war was still waged over the resources that could be acquired. Only this time, the spoils of war were also its weapons: Copper and Iron. For these resources, Ming would invade Oirats, Castile would annex Granada, and the Holy Roman Empire would remain quarreling, bickering nation-states, bent on controlling the last remaining resources in Germany. In 1444, the storm of regional war had come again. In two brief years, most of Gujarat was reduced to cinders. And from the ashes of devastation, a Mewari civilization would struggle to arise. A few were able to reach the relative safety of the developed provinces. Your family was part of that group that entered the Fort at Marwar. Imprisoned safely behind the large Fort door, near a sea of sand, a generation has lived without knowledge of all the Indian trade goods. Life in the Fort is about to change. ---- War. War never changes. In the year 1444, my great-great grandfather, serving in the army, wondered when he'd get to go home to his wife and the son he'd never seen. He got his wish when Mewar ended the Mewar-Gujarat war for Petan by assaulting Gujarats capital with the Free Company. India awaited Armageddon; instead, something miraculous happened. We began to use Copper and Iron not as a weapon, but as a nearly limitless source of production income. People enjoyed luxuries once thought the realm of science fiction. Cups, bowls, forks. But then, in the 15th century, people awoke from the Indian dream. Years of consumption didn't somehow lead to shortages of every major resource, as they were infinite. The entire world unraveled. Peace became a distant memory, as people raced to control the spices. It is now the year 1494. We stand on the brink of total war, and I am afraid. For myself, for my wife, for my infant son - because if my time in the army taught me one thing: it's that war, war never changes. Join my Discord:   / discord
