The Basileus is crazy

Well congratulations on a great AAR so far. I really like how you split your kingdom like that. Makes it more realistic. And of course Phyrrus was hilarious at the beginning

Say what?

And yes, I know Pyrrhus hasn´t been very funny as of late. Well, this is my first ever AAR, and I´m exploring different genres within the AAR. Plus, it gets kinda difficult to come up with new jokes after a while, it´ll just feel too repetetive and cliché.

In my opinion it's more realistic given the nature of the kingdom (islands and enclaves) and the different personalities of Phyrrus' sons that the kingdom isn't united but fractured amongst the various leaders.

Oh okay, you´re right about that. For a moment there I thought to said it was very realistic with Pyrrhus of Epirus sailing to Ireland.
But yeah, I´ve been trying to get across the fact these guys aren´t really a unified faction. And they certainly aren´t the Epeirotes anymore. It´s just the rogue family of Aiakides.

Edit: P.S. I really like Alexandros. He is probably the best one to reunite the Epirote faction. Ptolemaios (that's his name right?) is a close second.

Yeah, those two are good guys, especially Alexandros. I´m curious to see what happens there, since at the moment I don´t really have any special plans for that area, nor could afford any. The Carthaginians are moving again on Sicily and Karia might be threatened soon again. But that´s all just boring defensive stuff.

This AAR actually has a lot of inventive promise; focusing on one crazy family instead of an actual faction is an interesting change.

And I think it's okay if it's not funny anymore, by the way; the pillaging stuff is entertaining enough. But don't drop the humour entirely if you can help it.
