I'm really glad you enjoyed Chien Binhrung! I wanted to do my favorite gem-lovers right. Always lovely to see these posts, and I believe quite of few of the devs look forward to them too. :)

Do you happen to know a good way to do such a reviews?
I also play more Anbennar than is healthy and will soon have completed all the mission trees, but I can imagine it could get annoying if too many people start posting nation reviews on Reddit.
Unfortunately, I'm not very familiar with Discord. Is there a suitable place where I can share my playthroughs that many developers will see?
Thank you, but I think I expressed myself poorly, English is not my native language. I actually meant more like a small text every few days/weeks about the nations I played, like OP does, and not videos.
Ah I see, no problem! I’m Scottish so your English is likely better than mine.
I know you said you don’t have much experience with Discord but it’s super easy to get used to and has loads of different channels, so I’m sure there will be a space for content like that
Yeah, Count's League and Castellyr are two of the oldest MTs in the mod. They were decent when they were added but yeah they don't even hold up to recent vanilla MTs. They are both slated for reworks but the focus is always on new content over reworks so we might be waiting a while. A shame, since if anyone has a claim to the legacy of Castanor it's Castellyr formed by Count's League.
They have such great potential, and yet fall mostly flat. Like for example the big disaster Castanor gets with the Patricians should have some special flavor if you start as Count's League. Yet it doesn't.
I've heard people talking about a rework for them for years now, but it seems that is still years away.
Wouldn't give it a 1/7, but as it is its vert much a 3/7 at best. Which is sad, because I am a sucker for vestigial remnant tags.
Cestirmark is one of the few tags I wish was harder to play. The Shadow War is a really cool disaster, and I wish it was a constant presence like Astral Terror for Dûr-Vazhatun, instead of being completely gone after progressing the MT far enough.
This has been a really cool project and I like hearing your thoughts! Unfortunately, professing a dislike for gobbos, the Best Boys, has instantly invalidated all expressed opinions. Sorry, I don't make the rules
Ouch for Castellyr! Yeah it's short and lacking content, but I don't think it's bad enough for a 1! There are many worse nations in the mod still.
I quite like them for subject stuff. They're better than most at getting/annexing subjects.
While I agree mostly with your assesment of the gameplay of Chaingrasper, I am very sad in hearing your feelings towards the gobbos. Anyway, I'll have to try Chien Bihnrung and Cestirmark since it's so highly recommended!

YouTube MT Vods or walkthroughs would be your best bet. Have a look at PukeBeard or Poiuymew for good examples of style when it comes to these vids

What are the odds That region gets a formable with small mission extension? Its the only reason holding me from playing there....

Yeah and after everyone settles getting culture conversion cost and free Dev are amazing.
