Does anyone have a post Marian savegame?

**Obi Wan Asterix** · December 15, 2007, 10:05 AM

I would really like a nice balanced (at least semi historical) post Marian savegame that I could start. Can anyone upload and share one?

yeah it would
Best I have is a 192BC romani save
Roman's conquests are about historical for the date (Italy save for Cisalpin Gaul are type I, Sicily, Sardigna, corsica, and the 3 mediterranean costal regions *edit*of Iberia*/edit* are Roman Provinces, Emporion, MAssalia, Cisalpin Gaul, Abrakia and Appolonia, the Achean league (Corinth, and i "just killed Nabis", so Sparta too) as well as PErgammon are Amici Populi ROmani... Oh, and I'm at war with the Seleucids, so I'm about to expand Pergammon too... Or was, before I had to unistall EB. Kept the save, though)

Is there a way we can speed up the game? (e.g. 1 turn = 1 year) except it would work like this:

Example:

Turn 10 - Winter - 250BC
Turn 11 - Summer - 249BC
Turn 12 - Winter - 248BC
Turn 13 - Summer - 247BC
Turn 14 - Winter - 246BC
...etc

if you're wondering about how the AI factions look, here's a 195 shot:

Pontus has been crushed since
Yeah, I'm the only one in there trying to keep it historical :p
I have about 2 consular armies in the field (full stacks) one in Greece/asia, the other in Iberia , but both lost their commanders recently (how the HELL does a general die against skirmishers when he still has 50 bodyguards ffs?!)
I'f you're still interested, how should I give you the save, O Patron ?

(how the HELL does a general die against skirmishers when he still has 50 bodyguards ffs?!)

The same way that Pyrrhus died? Or the way that other generals died I suppose. During the Second Punic War, one of the main Roman generals was killed when he decided to go on a reconnaissance with some scouts and was killed in a skirmish with Hannibal's scouts. I can't remember what his name was - except that it was Marcus or something, and the last name began with M - he was one of the two generals the Romans took to calling the sword and the shield of Rome in the aftermath of Cannae.

Death usually isn't flattering in warfare.

Marcus Claudius Marcellus, and he was killed in an ambush when he decided to go on a reconnaissance. Not a random skirmish with Hannibal's scouts.

in EB 0.81 i got as far as the year 119 BCE before i got bored. conquered the whole world from gaul to media, didn't go to england and rhodes yet. wanted to get imperial reform before winning. didn't get it by far... facing only the seleucids (possessing the whole east/northeast of the zagros) and tolerating the sarmatians and sabae along my borders the game got friggggggiiiin boring. but i had the biggest empire i ever had and was satisfied enough

seriously, their must be some sick freak whose got a post augustan save???? if you are that sick freak and reading this, know that i'm joking about the sick part, and also the freak part... just put that save online... plzzzzz
