I'm on my first campaign and have nearly reached 50 regions. As I understand it when the Civil War breaks out I have to take Rome. But I took it 50 years ago!

How did you take Rome before the Cival War?
Because I'm good?
Only joking. What usually stops you?
The fact that you cant attack Rome untill you have enough popularity with the people.
And when you do attack Rome, that starts the Cival War as you are outlawed for declaring war on fellow Romans.
So back to my original question, how did you take Rome and yet not be in the Cival war?
Wish I knew. There was no warning that I was starting a war and the other Roman factions have remained allies. A bug?Quote:

There was an army but not as big as I had expected. My spy told me there was a garrison of about 300 so I attacked.
Hmmmm I take it you are playing as a Roman faction?
Are you running any mods? What version are you playing?
Also note your Senate ratings and popularity with the people (if you are a Roman faction)
When did you had the "chance for power" message??
If it was 50 years ago then you could attack it..
But I do not understand why other romans didn't attack you :dizzy2:
Well I won three more Regions and won the game without marching on Rome. I never did get the Chance for Power message.
That's bizarre.
Perhaps no-one tried it before. I think I had high popularity and it may be a spy opened the gates. Because it was my first campaign I didn't realise anything unusual was happening.
Well, what I usually did is build a Forum in Arretium, train Assassin, try to assassinate the Senate Faction leader, there, Civil War.
Errrr... Which faction are/were you playing with?
Julii, methinks. Was a long time ago.
Err sorry pal, I was asking the question to dcousins, I should've precised it! :sweatdrop:
So, err, dcousins? Do you remember your faction?
Assassinating the Julii faction leader causes Civil War, are you sure on that?
Civil Wars could originally be triggered through assassination without the chance for power message. It was classified as a bug, and was fixed somewhere down the line - assassination now can only trigger the civil war after the chance for power message.

The exact same thing happened to me! I took Rome way before the civil war. is this a bug? please tell me my game isn't broke!!! :help:
I really do think that we can trust Omanes on that one, he's very acknowledged on the RTW topic
They changed that?:|
That ain't honest:P I always loved doing that, so you could win the game in half the time
I'll have to try that if I ever play vanilla Rome again.Quote:
