Basiliscus+coolguyz Roman AAR swap game

**Chicken** · January 16, 2010, 02:41 PM

Hi everyone,

Basiliscus and I wanted to play a new roman campaign (1 turn recruitment), with a twist, so we decided to play a swap game, each person playing 6 turns.
Also, at the end of each update, we will ask you guys what you think we should do next (rather like Alvaria's Pergamum AAR

)
We will update this AAR as frequently as possible, and I hope you enjoy it!

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

A naval invasion on Spain would be fun to watch.

I must also add that we are playing this (as coolguyz mentioned) 6 turns each and then retiring the power to the other... kinda representing the consular office of the Roman republic (each of us being consuls).
We haven't got any goals in our minds, since this will be played until RSII comes out... then who knows, maybe we'll continue this two-leaders way of playing (a hint maybe?).

I vote you attack Epirots first, then fight Syracuse when she has the whole of Sicily. It will be more of a challenge then.

Launch a Crusade! Take Jerusalem and expand from there!

It seems that Basiliscus is having fun on a skiiing holiday, and will be gone for 2 weeks.

I dont really want to abandon and AAR that we just started, so would anyone want to substitute him?

We were playing 1 turn recruitment, region borders included, and no force diplom if possible.

I will post the save game here on the forum, and every 6 turns, each of us post an update+the save game.

Anyone interested?

If Uni wasnt pummeling me to death with exams and coursework at the moment i would be interested, but unfortunately i have too much work to do a the moment

. And i say launch a simultaneous attack on everybody- it would be a pre-emptive strike as they are all bound to attack you eventually anyway or attack Carthage-they are always fun to take down.

Hi Coolguyz,

I have been a quiet observer around the forum while RS2 is being manufactured, and havent played Rome Surrectum 1.6 consistently for a while. But when i read your message i became intrigued and interested, as it sounds very interesting and provides a whole new concept to playing Rome Surrectum. I love the idea that 2 or more people can guide the outcome of different scenarios and even create different styles within the same campaign. I am excited

. just need some help to get started i guess.

Do you want to play with me?
If yes, then ill attach the save game in my next post in this thread

**Naked fanatic** · January 19, 2010, 02:53 AM

And what about allow anyone to join this game? Lets say you will post a savegame and the first who would like to play would just announce that. Then he will play his six turns and post savegame again for someone else. We can still vote. So if we agree we want an invasion to Sicily the player who is currently playing would have to obey this. Just an idea

Yes i want to play with you on this Rome Surrectum Consulship.

Ok i will look for the next post to have the save game to play my 6 turns

.

This is a great idea. Cant wait to do it and then post it back to see how the next consul goes.

I will give 1 or 2 days for people to voice the ideas of the people and senate on what the strategy should be for the coming 3 years. On all subjects ranging from war to development and finance aswell as diplomacy and other strategies possibly available. And then as Authorised Consul i shall enact that power to my own interpretation of what the people want

...and the rest we shall see what comes of it...

I say march on to Greece. Get Epirot first and then Macedon, it will be a challenge and clear out the barbarians sitting in the Alps to secure the Italian Peninsula. You will have no problems from Syracuse in the west for a while yet and like samurai89 said it will be more fun when they stopped their struggle against the Carthaginians and can put up a fight.
