A Cool Situation!
Anyways, in this rather pointless thread, I thought that I might share this cool situation in my campaign right now:
So, for the first time in EB 1.1, I thought I'd give the Romani a try in the campaign. Of course, I decided twist history and migrated to the Baltic with Caivs Aurelivs Cotta and start anew, with a small legion that was quickly disbanded to bring up the population in my new homeland, effectively leaving everyone else in Italy to be slaughtered by Epeirotes, Aedui, and Rebels. Now that's cool. Anyways, to make it cooler still, that northern town I captured, a bit to the east of the Sweboz homeland, but to the west of the steppes, I renamed Nova Roma (New Rome). That, also, is cool. Furthermore, Cotta had a couple sons to carry on his legacy (yeah, cool), and someone else was brought into the family with a COOL name: Tiberivs Valerivs Maximvs. Yeah, very cool!
Now, this last cool event was what inspired me to make this thread: Tiberivs Valerivs Maximvs married to some random woman, who (very soon. Damn, they were busy!) gave birth to a son: Tiberivs. Now that is sweet! Tiberivs' first son is named after him. I thought that was awesome. A dude with a cool-sounding name gave his son the same cool-sounding name. As a result, I now have two full generations of EB gameplay to enjoy these awesome dudes with cool-sounding names. That is glorious!
PS: My army is composed of Baltic troops, along with small auxiliary forces of those tough Scandinavian spearmen, Germans, and Celts. Cool, eh?
If it gets any cooler than this, I'm gonna go buy a lamb and offer it in sacrifice to the glory of EB.
