Whats the record, i was gonna aim to conquer the whole map but im having trouble in my romani campaign, macedonia have spread to syria and wiped out koinon hellon, pontus and are chasing epirus north east past dacia. My lands in germany r hanging by a thread, the germans only have 4 settlements left but due to the fact i cant recruit barely any more men because of lack of public happiness due to war tax i am struggling against their remaining 3 full stacks of leet forces. Macedonia have took 2 settlements off me and segestia is my last fortified stronghold before they hit italy where i have no forces every city is garrisoned with 1 man so if they do reach ill be in trouble. Its an amasing campaign so far im on the edge of my seat and scared to press the end turn icon lol.
Anyways back to the main question Whats the record for the most conquered lands in 1 campaign?
oh and proof is obviously needed :P

Fluvius Camillus managed to conquer every territory (barring one that isn't meant to be taken) by 195 B.C. with the Romani and 190 B.C. with Epeiros.

It's actually one territory.Fluvius Camillus managed to conquer every territory (barring two that aren't meant to be taken) by 195 B.C. with the Romani and 190 B.C. with Epeiros.
WOW.
Erm, what are those grey shades at the bottom edge of the map.

Unexplored territory, I guess.
you can sponsor 10 times the current global crisis with that income 
I can never have that income thanks to my gold-plated catas that cost me a real fortune

By the way, what makes Pella that good in economy?
Fully developed mine complex?
wow...scary... :sweat:

Yeah Pella can generate some serious cash. It's not unusual to get over 10,000 a turn.Fully developed mine complex?
Yay... over 10000 in a turn... How did u manage to wrest those boringness of a really ridiculously large empire?

Yeah, you're right. I was thinking of pre-1.0 EB, when there was still Dumatha in central Arabia.It's actually one territory.
Sorry but i dont understand how you can conquer the whole map in that time 190 bc? wtf thats a joke it must have been modded for an easy time, its just not enough time, even to build up all the settlements it would take more time than that

I hope you activated your EB script. Four turns per year and not the usual two. Ceterum censeo Romam esse delendam.Sorry but i dont understand how you can conquer the whole map in that time 190 bc? wtf thats a joke it must have been modded for an easy time, its just not enough time, even to build up all the settlements it would take more time than that
If that was aimed at me, then ofcourse its always activated, but still in that time period, ud have to blitz everything thats just no fun, its a hell of an achievement though
Pella generates that much money because it is the center of the world, superceeding Epidamnos.

Everyone has different tastes and playing styles.If that was aimed at me, then ofcourse its always activated, but still in that time period, ud have to blitz everything thats just no fun, its a hell of an achievement though
I find it no fun to sit around on my butt waiting to be attacked or letting myself be attacked while I could be expanding. I also don't have the patience to "roleplay." I play to win.
It seems very possible to achieve a whole map conquered in that timeframe.
The same guy is also working on a Pontus campaign blitz too. And maybe a parlava campaign but I'm not sure.
Its a great acheivement. Be a hell of a job to do it with every faction. Not sure if the Saba'yn for example are overly suited to blitzing.

Wow, I like praise!!! I almost seem famous
Ok, prepare for my empires!!!
Epiros EB 1.0, completed
Romani EB 1.1, completed
Arverni EB 1.2, paused, I may continue in the future
Pontos EB 1.2, in progress
(Pontos in an earlier stage)
These are the most recent pictures I have.

(Disclaimer: I NEVER CHEAT, this is all done by the way I like playing EB. In my opinion there is still some storyline in it. My strategies are supreme and my planning is long-thougth of. Every step is taken with care, precision and determination. Recently I installed FD, however has not been used on any of the empire you see, only once in a later stage with Pontos. Keep in mind, I can blitz faster, but that would have to be with a strong faction and NO STORYLINE, which you may cannot imagine, but which I dislike).
- Epiros = EB 1.0 Difficulty = VH/M or VH/VH honestly don't remember.
- Romani = EB 1.1 + official fixes Difficulty = VH/M
- Arverni = EB 1.2 + official fixes Difficulty = VH/M
- Pontos = EB 1.2 + official fixes Diffculty = H/H (I have installed EB and RS textures now, still I only used FD yet, to roleplay AS as an protectorate (only Alexandreia Eshate left), who however are dead now.

Congratulations, man!
I will answer this:
I tried to make it all visible but invisible barriers and the range of my spies stopped me from doing so.
The Underlined part, thank you.
Pahlava is incorrect however I did consider it, I am looking for one of these to decide what to play next: Getting the "feel" of eastern warfare and exploring faction cultures which I did not or rarely played as.

Ah the old times... Dumatha had the desert "building", I also remember Cydamus (something like that), being a Carthaginian city south of Hadrumentum.Yeah, you're right. I was thinking of pre-1.0 EB, when there was still Dumatha in central Arabia.

The Bold part: disagreed, I like the grandeur of the royal armies and prestige of enourmous wealthy empires.If that was aimed at me, then ofcourse its always activated, but still in that time period, ud have to blitz everything thats just no fun, its a hell of an achievement though

Pontos is correct, however I am deliberately slowing down after the picture posted.The same guy is also working on a Pontus campaign blitz too. And maybe a parlava campaign but I'm not sure.

If you don't cheat why do you have imperial troops in 195bc?

Not to be a nit picker but you did something to enable the Imperial reforms in your Romani campaign. You must be at least at year 125 for it to happen.No mods, I don't cheat.
omg u nit picker lol :P

Yep. I think it was the Aedui, (with a small chance of it being an Arverni) world domination. Every other world domination posted on these forums was either forged by the sarissa or the gladius. Either do a forum search yourself, or wait for me to find it.has anyone blitzed the map without pikes or romans?
Found it! Here:

And yes, the bloke modded the EDU so that all infantry units have 200 men. Thus the game was unbalanced quite a bit by that, as you can imagine what Gaesatae would do if they had 200 men. While Pantadapoi would have only 200, as opposed to 240. Same with the phalangites.
But this does also mean that the enemy elites were more numerous and the cavalry had less of an effect. Which is historical, because having 50-men mounted units and 120/80/60 men infantry units is not. Not proportional. Most mods fix this, but EB does not. (Thankfully too, since fighting with 20/30 men cavalry is tough)
