Post Empires!

[andrewmc]

I feel we need a thread like this as it would be very interesting how people play there campains + see how different factions have devloped. I am going to post mine later today.

[Gen.jamesWolfe]

this is my only finished campaign on IBFD:RR. eastern roman empire, won in 442AD in winter. I lost hte origional save game, but not before I wrote the equivalent to the Notitia Dignitatum: I had ~46 legions, 30-40 cavalry, and 50-100 Auxilia. Capital (constatntinople), made almost 8000 Denarii a tern. I had war with the Sassanids (in decline), Arabs, Constantini and western romans, Berbers, and Ostrogoths; I had exterminated the Visigoths as a poeple, and had Franks, Burgundians, saxons, vandals, and Langobardi (who were like nomads by then as Allies (not on the map)

casualties(on large size units):

the African campaign: ~1500 men (most from an attack by Berbers)
European rhine campaign: 5-7000 (2000 from a naval convoy being destroyed)
Danube frontier: 4000
Eastern front: +10000 (1000 from one battle alone; a heroic victory, near the city of Hatra)

2 eagles were lost, but later recaptured rom the Ostrogothi and from WRE
enemies:

Visigoths: ~15000 military, 20000 civilians
Ostrogoths: ~5500military, ~2000 civilians
Sassanids: 12000-18000 military, 40000 civilians
WRE: 10000 military, 60000 civilian
Berber: ~700
Arabs: ~1600

this was won without 4tpy scrip...

[PSEUDO ROMANUS]

Wow! Nice campaign!

[Gen.jamesWolfe]

it wasn't easy though: I had 513 battles fought, of whish 90% were by my personal command. I lost 13 of them (10 naval, 3 land).
how I got this far this quickly is the incredible part: there was a battle or war every turn. I might have to write an AAR on this

[PSEUDO ROMANUS]

I might have to write an AAR on this

Go ahead, I certainly shall read it.

[andrewmc]

agreed, 513 battles bloody hell!

[Gen.jamesWolfe]

agreed, 513 battles bloody hell!

yeah, really bloody: most were small engagements though, between 2-400 men in total, but many were fierce affairs.

[Pliniux]

Really a good idea! As soon as I have enough time, I'Il will post some screen shots of my campaign with the WRE. It's my fist campaign with IBRR (difficulty medium/medium) and I'm going quite well; yesterday evening I have exterminate the Goths!!!!!!

andrewmc,
What mod are you playing? Enhancement pack 1? I didnt think that the towns were like that in that one.

[Ihatemonday]

You can build hadrians wall in tingi thats odd.I have to check that.Btw great shots.Lovely empire.

[Pliniux]

Thank you very much for your compliments!!!

And what about the royal roads in Gallia?...I've read the in the Mylae's Buildings add-on it was "FIXED a stupid bug in which roman highways in gaul and spain looked like eastern royal roads"; and this add on should be inserted in the enhancementpack 1 but...

[Gen.jamesWolfe]

Great!!

[andrewmc]

Ihatemonday you going to post a pic of any of your campaigns?

[Baldwin of Jerusalem]

andrewmc,
You're campaign appears to have MTW2 map textures on the campaign map and also the shape of the towns on the campaign map are round instead of square. Have you modded it at all?

He doesnt't; what you are seeing is due to pixalization of his pictures.
But Pliniux has it, and he said he was using the enhancement pack.
