m2tw broken crescent campaign: nobody expects the Kushan Turnaround

as Ghazni you begin in Gandhara with the Ghorids bearing down across the Khyber to finish you off & drive into India, as irl. but i took my army up a pass north of the Punjab up into Khotan (which is probably really difficult if not impossible in the 12th century, but its in the game). take over Khotan and Kashgar, now i'm coming around thru Ferghana & will be able to hit the Ghorids in Tokharistan while their armies are taking my stuff in India.

its very unorthodox and unfeasable outside a game but the idea of a dynasty in the Hindu Kush which conventionally flows southward and terminates in/conquers Gandhara & northern India, turning around and redoing the circuit is hilarious. if it goes to plan there will be a stage where i've completely reversed starting positions with Ghorids relocated to Gandhara while i own Ghor susie-laugh
