    Default Post Your Empires!






    So, here we come to the day before the momentous patch, three days in. Post your empire. I'm currently stuck on an enemy turn bug for the Arevaci going into my fortieth turn.

    My fleet has just reached the shores of Etruscan held Italy. I am king of six kingdoms, and capital ruler of two provinces. Pontus. Bithynia. Trapezos. Pergamon. Galatia. Colchis. The violent struggle to determine the ruler of seventh kingdom of Thracia begins with an invasion of Odessos, and enters it's second year, with Antheia falling and being recaptured, by the armies of Athens. The Caucasian Wars started by my fool-hardy military ally Trapezos have resulted in occupation of Trapezos, after aiding them in any war they endeavored, and offering a helping hand by giving them Satrapy as well as the annexation of Colchis by the former slave and king, Prokopios of the Mithradatic Dynasty. My coffers have just received a surplus of 4000 for blackmailing an indebted son of a rival family, which goes to good use in the Miltary Edict I have just issued in Pontus et Bithynia.

    The Nemean Lion, my first legion, will march on Pulpudeva, capital of Thrace and the Odysyrian Kingom within the year. The Alliance of Athens and Sparta rules the Aegean and also makes war on the Thracians, and are a powerful counterbalance to the Celtic Confederation led by the Triballi, a Thracian people who have seized Pannonia. My king leaves a member of his family to adminster Colchis, while he takes his King's Elite to guard central Anatolia from expansionist Seleucid forces to the south. Cappadocia remains divided between the Seleucid empire and myself. Sardis, client state of the Seleucids has heeled Egypt. Gone also is Macedon.

    Good to see someone enjoying themselves. I wanted to play as the Arverni for my barbarian faction, but I think I'll hold out for the Getae or Odryssian Kingdom first.

    Here is my empire on the "hard" difficulty, although we all know the ai isn't hard no matter what difficulty you put it on. My next move is to plan to take the rest of Iberia, the Italian peninsula and then attempting to gain control of Magna Germania. I'll edit this post later to add more information, heading off to bed now and twcenter is being as slow as a sleepy snail who smoked a joint or two.

    hard or very hard is the way to go , and is it me or are it (almost)always the same factions that end up dominating campaign map? i have never seen the Iberians being kicked out of Iberia and they normally even dominate Carthage in my Playthroughs(generally Gallaeci,Cantabri and Turdetani) same for the Frisii,Iceni and Raeti, do they start with a big army or something similar?edit: How the hell did the Cantabri manage to get into the Alps

    Haven't had any contact with Spain. But the Carthaginians have been destroyed, presumably by Syracuse or an Iberian faction, since Libya just recently emerged. Pergamon usually flourishes, they were kind of formidable in my campaign. But it looks like they wiped out Sardis and the Seleucids in his, which is the opposite of what happened in my game. They both made huge gains against Cyprus and Egypt. It's going to be the major world war after I deal with the Celtic Confederation and Odryssia in Thrace.

    You can use Steam to take screencaps, just hit F12 or F11 (forget which one it is by default)

    http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfile...id=176080303My Athensempire on legendary, will take forever I guess. Interesting situation at the moment, because all my allies in Minor Asia, Gaul, Germania and Spain canceled our agreements and I am on Syracuseconquest in NW Africa as you can see. 3 new armies are just on the rise in Athens itself, will be interesting next 5-15 turns.
