A BI Blitzkrieg Playthrough of the Eastern Roman Empire With Added Historical Facts

Hello, I am back again, this time with a new channel and a new, much improved let's play; this one takes the Eastern Roman Empire and aims to complete the campaign in under twenty turns on VH/M (because I don't like stupidly hard battles just to make it more challenging). The reason for the change of channel is because I felt that my current channel no longer represented what I was like, instead it was a generic channel similar to that of many a let's player; my new channel is focused on taking a more historical approach to the game; with the intent of learning more about one of my favourite eras, as well as imparting some knowledge onto the viewer without being patronising or condescending. I hope that I have got my facts right as I have taken a fair amount of time to research them, both on the internet, and via reading books; however, if I haven't, please tell me where I messed up.

Each video is one turn, partly due to the video length limit that YouTube imposes on all new channels, and also because when I watched a similar LP - he did the same thing for the Western Roman Empire - I felt that it would have been better if it had been done that way. Without further ado, I present my first video:

This is good, but I am much more interested in the WRE completion on VH/VH (really, battle difficulty isn't that big of a deal, enemy morale is still low). Espeially if you make the empire pagan and restore the former glory of Rome and it's true pantheon.

The challenge, like I said in the other thread, is going to be a lot greater.

But it doesn't matter what I'm interested in :laugh4: Keep the videos coming, I'll be following this thread. Do try to speak up a bit, sometimes its hard to hear what you're saying.

Thank you for your feedback! Here is the second turn:

We have started two RTW succession games in the TR. Care to join?

That would be awesome. I assume that I just sign up in the TR?

Yup! I know I'm holding the save atm but you will be able to succeed the faction come next week.
