Roleplay/Your Houserules

[seienchin]

I always expel (the last option) when I conquer a settlement. I always build a type 4 government and recruit a Client Ruler to govern the settlement. I do not upgrade the settlement until the Client Ruler dies or until he is really old (60+).


I have only played as Rome, Pontus, Macedon and Bactria.

I did this too in my bactrian campain, but it ruined me cause the client rulers in the east are incredible expensive.

By the way dull characters often tunr out to be the better generals.

If i have a huge surplus of FM's and a reasonable amount of cash (usually late game Romani, Maks, AS etc) i'll use spare FM's to roleplay stuff - like build a fort on/near choke points or resources and stick a low-influence or useless character and RP that they've been 'banished' to some backwater or fallen out of favour etc. Usually only happens when i have too many FM's or generals.

Oh and as mentioned before, i'll usually simulate reforms for the AS and Makedonia by adding units to the roster as i defeat certain factions or have prolonged wars with them
