I would like to do a run using oculus quest 2, but I'm not certain which category it would fall under. The controls are most similar to console, but the oculus version is also based on windows 10, in which case it would be a PC run (with a ton of disadvantages because of lack of buttons).

Would it be possible to create a new category so Oculus is separate from the rest?

The game is now apparently called Age of History 2. Are we planning on changing discord and speedrun.com to match this?

I am unable to find these scenarios in AoC2

So I've "discovered" a new strategy. Well, more like I took an existing mechanic and exploited the hell out of it. Essentially, (this is really only good for maps with more than 3 countries and less than... idk 50?), I build up a very large army as quickly as possible. I insult everyone to the point that I could send an ultimatum to them (Opinion <= -10) I then send ultimatums to vassalize (although you could take all provinces for smaller nations) every single other country.

Other things to note: Taxes: A couple ticks above the recommended Good/Investments: Minimum to maintain Research: None Starting Research Points: Max Army Upkeep, then Administration/Tax Income

If anyone has ideas on how to refine this strategy, please comment below

Runs that I used this for: Modern World Victory% (this was the first time I actually used this strat, and I only tried it because my friend thought it would be cool if I could vassalize the 2nd nation.) Sengoku Victory% Ancient Greece Victory%

Note: While this strat is best for Victory%, it could be adapted to Conquer, you would just spam through the turns and annex them once the truce was done. If they declared independence, then you just ignore the declaration, vassalize them again. When it prompts you to acknowledge the declaration the next turn, you just say "Fine", but they're still your vassal. Eventually they give up on independence.

A friend who I ran Any% Co-op Glitchless with just made a speedrun.com account, and asked that I update the run to have his profile linked. Now that I have, my run is gone. Did I do something wrong?

All Achievements will always take at least 33 hours (because of the "100 days" achievement). We should consider additional category extensions like those present in the Java Edition.

I have two runs (a Any% Glitchless and an Any% Co-Op Glitchless) that have not been verified. The first was uploaded over a day ago, and the second was today. When about can I expect to see these on the leaderboards? Thanks in advance =)
