I had the impression that in the last half hour the team was overall moving notably less, with the exception of the substitute players.

It was in general not a very exciting world cup. Lots of muddling through, not a lot of brilliance, noone really convincing all the way through. Overall it's probably fair to say France played the...
I'm glad to see you've been back, I had been worried you had left us for good.
I know the feeling of wanting to finish something, but struggling to come up with a way. In my case, after years of...
It's about principles, indeed. Supporting a candidate who doesn't represent your political beliefs - the beliefs for which you were elected to your position - just because he's from your party, now...
Thank you for your comment. When I started this, I had written other stories before, but only short, contained ones. Only over time it became clear to me how ambitious my plans actually were. :) I...
I've seen the KH start invasions from Rhodos on a regular basis, it doesn't seem to always be a problem. What's their diplomatic status with Pergamon?
When does it freeze, is it during the AI's turn? It's possible it's just a faction turning into a horde, it can take several minutes. The first time that happened to me I thought the game froze, but...
The third and final part of the untold tales. I think you know the deal now and we can dispense with the disclaimer. ;)
215 BC = 97 SE = 11 AIII
The seleucid army leaves Susa in two columns....
Hehe, maybe some day. :laughter:
I looked up this thread from pure nostalgia and noticed that I never actually explained here why I didn't continue this - I only mentioned the reason in my other AAR.
What happened is, I created a...
Thank you.
I guess we'll find out the next time. :)
You mean, why are there less warriors in Triarii units?
Historically, maniples of Triarii were only half the size of maniples of the other two types.
Although I seem to remember that only...
The second part of the untold tales. As before, if you'd rather take the risk waiting for proper chapters that may or may not come, don't click on the button.
The Untold Tales, part 2
226 BC =...
Have you tried ticking and unticking again?
I would suggest adding a line or two to the 'Strategy' section of the pahlavan gouvernments about which governors the people will accept or not.
I had to figure out by trial and error what caused...
I feel like campaigns on VH/VH are supposed to be very difficult? :tongue:
To be fair, 2004 Greece won three (out of six) games in regular time, 2016 Portugal won only one single game (out of seven) in regular time. I guess that means Portugal made history as the worst Euro...
Oh yeah, Portugal won! Oh no, Portugal won! :laughter:
I went into this rooting for France, but now I actually feel bad for Ronaldo and want Portugal to win. Never expected that to happen...
I see, thank you. Such a shame. ;)
I believe mercenary units are retrained from the mercenary pool and regular units from the regular pool (I guess I'm just stating the obvious :laughter:). So if you're trying to retrain a...
In the graphic it says "number restricted by faction size" for the Basilike Patris. Could you be more specific? Is it, like, one for ten provinces, or is there a fixed cap?
I've recently finished a seleucid campaign and I feel like compared to the original EB the early game should be a little easier and the middle game a little harder. It's been a while since I played...
The reason I'm asking, I noticed as the seleucids I had upkeep free Peltastai Makedones.
Yeah, that's what I thought.
There are a whole bunch of settlements sitting around 5750 with all...
Short of looking it up in the files, is there a rule of thumb which units are eligible for free upkeep and which are not?
What's with the "wonder outposts"? Is that a mechanic for the "wonder...
I guess a penalty shootout with 18 shots is about as close as you can get to equal chances, right? :laughter:
Anyway, I still think it was the game between the two best teams in the tournament and...
Lol, that's a good one. :laughter: But if we count friendlies, then Italy lost this very year, I think it was in march, 1 - 4 against Germany. It is an interesting statistic that in tournaments...
At this point I do expect Portugal to win the title without winning a single game in regular time.
So, since I'm not looking forward to the official finale, I'll consider today's game the true...
As advertised, part 1 of the untold tales. I repeat, this doesn't mean I won't write proper chapters anymore, so if you want to wait for that, feel free not to click the spoiler button. But be...
Thank you for your support, guys! I appreciate the fact that there is still interest more than you can know.
The problem about just finishing the story is how much there is of it. It is something...
Here's the deal:
I've always said I wanted to finish the story and I still kinda do, but realistically speaking, I'll probably die of old age before that happens.
So, in case anyone actually...
Chapter 65: Hegemon
The Kyrenaika is a refuge, but not a safe haven. The lion from Alexandreia has halted the hunt to lick his wounds in the east, but a different predator lurks in the west.
...
Chapter 64: Pentapolis
Antiochos too marches west to save the rest of his army. Yonder lies the Kyrenaika, controlled by a federation of five cities, chief among them Kyrene. The Kyrenaika had...
Stopping the "rise of hatred" by hate mongering?
Is this supposed to not be shortsighted? When everyone is talking about "greek debt" and "money for greece", it must be easy to forget that there are more sides involved. Every cent that Greece is...
Actually, the allegation that "the media" is keeping quiet about it, because it would be "hugely unpopular legislation if it was made public", is not backed up by the articles and has conspiracy...
According to the Washington Post,
It does leave a peculiar taste.
What are you trying to say? Two months is the usual time a member is given by the commision before further actions of the infringement procedure are taken. But the directive has been in effect and...
Talk about paranoia.
First of all, this isn't exactly a new development. When a directive is passed, there's always a date at which it takes effect and until which member states have to implement...
Thank you very much.
That's probably the case, though it is quite easy if you just take a few years worth of break inbetween chapters. :)
It's almost like I wrote it that way to make...
