Thank you and happy belated birthday!
Thanks, done :thumbsup2
206 BC or something (PrintScreen for some reason didn't capture the moment) 259 BC, Turn 54, happened a second time (hence bug report).
Can't attach the whole log (too large for forum zipped to...
Thanks for coming up with a patch in these difficult times.
Now I really have to complete my 2.35 SPQR campaign :D
As Dooz so eloquently put, following your excellent series for months (as a latecomer) gave me the same level of pleasure as watching a favourite TV serial or -as I remember saying before- a well...
One step forward, one step back, then half a step forward... The toilsome history of the Lugian people summarized :)
Thanks for the new episode in this steadily improving series.
Here comes finally the much coveted and needed victory for Lugia. It will be interesting to observe the power dynamics between the two victors in the near future.
Beautiful battle shots and...
Another great and important battle impending. Fingers crossed for team Lugia :jimkatalanos:
It seems His Queen's Pet is finally growing up, and potentially to the benefit of Narhanarvali. We'll see :yes:
Your skill of building stories upon the gamiest of gamy bits is shining in this last...
Saw the new episode when it was published but didn't have a chance to come down here and comment. Things are certainly not looking up for the Lugian Kingdom. Fingers crossed for a fortuitous turn of...
Finally a significant victory out on the field, though how decisive remains to be seen.
Little Aimos is growing to be the true psychopath.
I'm curious as to whom the Romans will strike next:...
Merry Cristmas in advance and best of luck in real life :)
As for the events in the Lugian kingdom...
RIP Frithugernas. You will be remembered for generations.
A series of successful...
Most welcome news after a long interval :)
The suspense builds up still!
A very important, if costly, victory for the march nobles, and for the kingdom in general. Still curious to see how His Queen's Pet will respond to the crisis though....
Voted scripting.
Gone thirsty to watch the last episode seeing your conversation. Will edit and append after watching it...
ADDENDVM
Amen to all of that!
Hariamerias met his well deserved fate indeed and...
Intrigue upon intrigue... We've yet to see if this is the dawn of a new era or the beginning of a tragic end. I hope for the prior.
Thanks for yet another brilliant episode :)
Has the settlement reached a certain population threshold? I believe Provincia is available from Town upwards.

Thanks Trarco :thumbsup2
Fair enough charlieh, master of intrigue :laughter:
Out of curiosity...
How did the suicide of Gunthharias come to pass, in game terms? Was it a narrative device or did he really somehow -prematurely- pass away?
What a pitiful tragedy. Poor, unfortunate Gunthharias :( Who knows what will befall the Lugian confederacy now...
Once again, great attention to detail and care for continuity (Re: Conquered...
Nothing fancier than good old pen and paper :D I also take traits into account; such as, if a "good governor" is a "satisfied administrator" I let him be for the time being and delay his entering...
Gaizariks... :( We had expectations from you, but they weren't meant to be.
Surprising yet wise move from king Athawulfaz. He had the means to pursue the war, but with great risk. I have a hunch...
I regularly employ the Scorpio (sieges) and ballista (anti-personnel, still best employed in sieges) in my post-Marian armies.
Glad to hear that. Although my Marian legions are eating up most of the surplus in my current SPQR campaign nearing completion, I'll feel easier with a bit of hoarding in future campaigns :laughter:

It might be a good idea to take backup copies elsewhere, although I've never seen an unistallation delete them :)
Even better <50k to mitigate corruption in all provinces regardless of traits.
I wish you and Gaizariks (for whom I've been rooting :D) best of luck!
Hariamerias! You.... you ungrateful bastard! :angry:
Fingers crossed for Gaizariks. The new king was bound to take matters into his own hand sooner or later. Circumstances are now forcing it from...
I don't see any particular problems with the technique; it feels like a visualization of many extant or referred ancient and medieval chronicles. Unless it starts to feel boring or monotonous to its...
Looking forward to giving it a try come next patch :)
COLARUSSO, John (2002). Nart Sagas from the Caucassus. Princeton and Oxford: Princeton University Press.
Delete please (wrong thread).
Came upon John Colarusso's Nart Sagas from the Caucassus, based upon his own translations from the corpus as well as others' work, contemporary and previous, including Dumézil's. Reading now...
(Quoted from another thread.)
Allied with Numidia and Ptolemaioi for ~600 turns, sharing borders for 400+
I'll keep an open eye for it going forward ;)
Pretty sure I had some (seen Ex-censor on one just my last session). Censors are elected every 5 years so the "eligible for..." trait doesn't guarantee the post.
