Haven't played it. 5-20K people killed over one revolt is a reasonable number, though.

they are very common so in order to repacify china you kill at least about 50-100 million of chinese most likely in the 10 years you need.
50-100 *million* people in 10 years? What the hell are you using on them, NBC weapons? Obviously this game of yours is a little warped in the realism department. These kind of numbers sound less like pacification of a revolt and more like systematic genocide on a scale that would not really fit with the timeframe you say this game is in.

~300 million cause it is the china from 1830-1920 .
That's still a lot of Chinese, even if it's not modern billion-plus.

LOL. Typical Norfleet. Arguing about the game he have no clue about whatsoever.


EU1/2 are not perfect by any means, and I could write an article on the areas where it could use some imporvement, even after dozens of pathes and beta-pathces, although they did improve the game a lot. Nevertheless EU games are by far the best and most realisitc historical simulators made in the history of computer games, period. If you are history buff - you'll love this game. If you are not - beware, you may easely become one if you'll stick with it long enough.

And this is not a joke btw, I've read countless stories on EU Boards when I was actively participating in the gamers community there, from the people who were not particulary interested in the europwean history, but have eventually gained history as thier strong hobby, as the result of playing this game. Also general maturity level of the gamers community there was higher than in any game I have ever played in my life, inculding Dom2, and trust me - I've played a lot. Personally I attribute it to the fact that you'll not find a lot of "CoWl DuDeZ" or lame exploiters, with the active interest of XV-XIX centuries european history.
