# **Campaign 5 session 3 Tier List by yours truly ;)**

This session we saw people, who I thought would dominate their regions, get decimated by either bad diplomacy or just unfortunate circumstances. Memes were at an all time high and some interesting stuff happened all around the globe.

Tier List:

**S Tier: The crème de la crème of the session, these nations did extra-ordinary conquests/politics or have done something extremely funny (like bribing me).**

**Mali**

Stretching from the waters of West Africa to inner jungles of Nigeria, a nation that can tame even the harshest desert with a ruler so generous he carries caravans of gold to give to the poor Mali is a nation examplry of what one should thrive for.

**Holland**

The Dutch, after losing a coalition war and having to give core provinces back to England, simply took those core provinces back from England while no one was looking. The sheer meme energy of this action alone gets them S tier.

**Manchu**

The Manchu horde keeps rampaging in China without any opposition, doubling their Chinese holdings and looking for further conquests.

Their sheer amount of provinces are enough to get them S tier but it looks like they made some permanent allies aswell. We'll see if Manchu domination will continue in China.

**Kongo**

*In a vc with Korea who is trying to get Colonialism*

"Dude I spent like 400 monarch power per dev in this province and I didn't get it?"

"Who fucking got it anyway? Who owns Mbamba?"

"The fucking Kongo."

S tier.

**A Tier: These nations have outdone themselves and my initial expectations and are going to strong into the next session.**

**Venice**

I see the Venetians are excellent businessman as they have successfully taken a slice of the Ottoman and Austrian pie, retaking their former cores and occupying Greece. Proving that they are excellent businessman.

**Ajuuran**

Ajuurat player saw that Kilwa was trying to do some 6D chess moves and denied it by annexing their nation. Secured some alliances with the Arab and Indian boys and will get some Egyptian land in the future.

Controls the entirety of the east coast of Africa and therefore gets A tier.

**Bahmanis**

The India boys strike again with Bahmanis as their leader, winning another war and stopping the Timurids from expanding eastwards and getting huge concessions out of them.

Bahmanis themselves made a clever alliance with the Arab boys and has a very special secret plan which if succeeds will get them S tier in the next tier list.

**Mewar**

Fought against the Timurids and gained a vassal with 50 dev out of it which gets him A tier with his fellow Indian boys.

**Sirhind**

Fought against the Timurids and freed the Afghani people which would get them to S tier if it were not full. For now he gets A tier with his fellow India boys.

**Bengal**

Fought against the Timurids and expanded a bit to the east, didn't really get anything from the war but it was probably because he couldn't. A tier with the boys.

**Sus**

For a nation that starts with such a shit economy, Sus has made the best that it could, getting some colonial land and doing business with his fellow north Africans.

**Genoa**

Fought a war against the Iberian Coalition (Aragon Tunis Naples Burgundy Portugal) and won handily thanks to some help from the Hungarians which places them at A tier

**B Tier These nations have done everything that they can in their immediate area and have set a solid foundation to do some braver plays in the future.**

**Aragon**

A B tier entry that, if we look at it by definition given above is not fit for B tier but the only alternative was putting it at C tier which Aragon doesn't deserve.

Fought valiantly against the Genoan Coalition and took some land form France, is the leader of of an alliance between Burgundy, Portugal and some other nations.

**Muscovy**

The Russian bear keeps expanding but picks the wrong allies. If it had done a bit more politics Muscovy would be A tier but for now they are B tier.

**Denmark**

Still in the process of wrapping up Scandinavia. Denmark can be a major player in politics when they can afford to be which puts them at B tier.

**Iroquois**

Consolidated some tribes and now is vibing in America which gets him B tier.

**Maldives**

Forgot to include them on my last Tier List but they were basically B tier as they did everything that they could and more, if their special plan with the Bahmanis actually comes to fruit then they'll get S tier.

**Great Horde**

Took a piece of the Ottoman Pie in the form of Crimea and secured himself a few alliances. Was an A tier nominee but I've decided to keep them at B until something a bit more exciting happens.

**Trier**

A weird nation to emerge within the HRE but alas. Trier made a surprising emergence this session and gets B tier.

**Yemen**

A member of the Arab boys that took some land from the Mamlukes, has long lasting alliances and a potential for more.

**C Tier: These nations did something, not quite enough to make it B tier but didn't stay idle either.**

**Tunis**

Did some expanding, finally, but not enough to merit B tier.

**Florence**

Was in a war but nothing changed overall, didn't take any land or anything.

**Portugal**

Did some colonial stuff and was in that Austrian Punitive war so I guess that's nice.

**Korea**

Expanded some by establishing colonies, almost got S tier but it was denied by Kongo.

**Calchaqui**

Calcha-who? To be fair he experienced some technical issues so has to stagnate a bit now. If he expands and consolidates power he'll move up to B tier.

**Naples**

Was in one of the major wars but didn't win it, thankfully didn't lose anything in the peace deal. C tier for now.

**Qara Qoyunlu**

Joined the Timurids in their war but Timmys lost, now in a conquest war against the Otto's. If they win they'll become B tier.

**Transoxania**

Expanded north a bit, was a Timmy ally so that sucks. C tier.

**D Tier:** I've decided to assign the D tier to the nations that did nothing but collect taxes and sleep all game. Which there were a lot this session.

**Salish**


**Yunnan**

Did nothing, in fact did nothing so hard that I forgot that they were an actual player and not a vassal of Manchu.

**Brandenburg**

Was in the Austrian war but did nothing interesting overall.

**Teutonic Order**

Joined in the punitive war but *snooze*.

**Oirat**

Did some wars as an ally of Manchu but that's it. Also has a Transoxanian enclave province but yea.

**Shanxi**

Collected some taxes and maybe helped their allies or somet- *snooze*.

**Aztecs & Cocomes**

Oh there is a race joke to be made here somewhere ay? Also I've decided to unite these 2 as they act like conjoined twins. Might refer to them as Mexico in the future.

**Haida**

Hunted some whales, that's pretty interesting.

**Cree**

Has one of the biggest cities in the world in the middle of the Canadian wastes somehow.

**Pawnee**

Who ?

**Ayutthaya**

The Thai nation I was so hyped about didn't even expand. Kinda sat there as its AI nations got eaten up by the Indians. Nice.

**Malacca**

Landed on the new world and that's it.

**Majapahit**

Who ?

**Tondo**

Was at war with Malacca or something but I guess he avoided annexation.

**Japan**

United Japan to sit down and collect taxes which I predicted would happen.

**Britanny**

Britanny is just sitting there waiting to be annexed I suppose.

**Scotland**

All that Scottish might last game and now he's sitting there and collecting taxes. I think he had to quit midway tho which sucks.

**Bohemia**

You would think Bohemia being the Emperor and having a sizable land that he would be a bit more aggressive but no.

**E tier:** A new tier, symbolizes losing land or your nation being in a worse place than its starting position.

**Mamlukes**

Its not the fault of the player currently but the player formally that played the Mamlukes. Lost a bit land but annexed Syria which is cool.

**Timurids**

Lost some land and its influence in India as a consequence of just sitting there and eating AI last session. We'll see if they can recover.

**Austria**

Took more than it could chew and got its land balkanized by the entirety of Europe. Feel bad for the guy honestly.

**F Tier:** Your nation has suffered unrecoverable damage and will die in the coming sessions.

**Hungary**

These feint victories they've had in the last 3 session has been nothing but blind luck and op modifiers Paradox insists on adding to the game, they are mechanically impaired and strategically bankrupt and are nothing compared to the great Nation of Mali.

**Austria**

Took more than it could chew and got its land balkanized by the entirety of Europe. Feel bad for the guy honestly.

**Hormuz Tier:** Saved for the lowest scum of the earth, the worst nation and the worst player in existence

**Hormuz**

I have occupied Palestine.
