Some of you might remember the duels me and Katank had back on MTW so here´s anotherone for ya´ll:
ROMAN BLITZ CAMPAIGN:
1. Secure all of "Italy" as fast as possible as any of the three Roman factions. (Italy = Sicily Graecus, -Phoenicia and -Romanus, Bruttium, Apulia, Campania, Latium, Umbria, Etruria, Venetia, Cisalpine Gaul, Ligura and Sardinia.
Yes, this means taking out the Senate early.
2. Expert or hard difficulty. Not everyone is Alexander, I´m not so I play the second toughest level
3. No mercenaries!!! It´s ok if the Senate gives you one.
4. No cheats ofcourse.
5. Any comments on the rules? Post a short story and end-screenie if possible when mission is accomplished.
Now, I´m running a game and seem to be able to pull it off before 250bc, although I took the detour of taking Massilia, Palma, Carthage and Thapsus too just because the Senate threw me a nice strings of missions; take Segesta, Caralis, Lilybaeum, Patavium, Mediolanium, Thapsus and Carthage so I just couldn´t resist, he he!
Theoretically you should be able to pull this feat off in around 15-18 years, or maybee even faster if luck stands you by, anyway it´s not possible to go faster than 9 years with spies infiltrating settlements prior besieging so I´m looking forward of seeing someone make it between 9-18 years. Good luck and happy hunting boys!
