How good am I!? lol I've got 90 provinces. The new Roman troops look awesome. I'm playing it on battles hard and campaign difficulty medium.

I thought it was impossible before 172BC? or have you modified it?

Well, it's the conditional reform that has a time limit, I think. Therefore, unconditional has but 1 requirement: 90+provinces.

At least 172BC and blabla OR have 90 provinces.

The conditionals for the marian reforms say "or have conquered at least 90 settlements" so it's probably a legit achievement which means he made no alterations to the script. That's impressive if you actually managed to conquer all those settlements in such a short time. Hell, that might even be a record. You get TWO thumbs up from me

That is absolutely immense. I've been playing it 'properly' in trying to keep a healthy economy with good logistical support etc. What you've done there is impressive. I bet that was fun. I could actually have got more provinces in that time but I've been trying to keep my expansion as historically accurate as possible. I have all of western europe to just west of the Suebi homeland; all of north africa to the most northerly provinces on the Nile; and have all of asia minor (turkey) to just west of hayasdan and have Antiocheia. I've been dreaming of sending Romans into Babylon. Soon :D Then I'll be facing off against the Seleucids who are currently caught up in some hard fighting against the rest of the ptolemies (that I've been annhilating), a pathetic parthian faction, a dangerous baktrian faction and a huuuge saka faction.
