Post your EB empires!

[Arthur, king of the Britons]

Hello fellow EB players!
Since I couldn't find a thread about this subject I decided to make one.

Here is my Kart-Hadastim empire in 192 BC.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

As you can see I have just conquered the Romaoi/Barbaroi and put an end to their empire.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Here is the Vanquisher of Roma aptly named Hannibal ( he is probably one of the best generals I've ever had).

Now it's your turn, lets share our empires.

Oh and if you want to go more in depth and AAR-ish with your "empire presentation" then that is more than welcome. :D

Cool thread - I think it's gonna be fun to see all the pictures. here are mine:


My Romani Campaign. I just kept going with it, even after I'd won. Eventually I established a TRUE Pax Romana by making all the other factions client states. This caused them all to make peace with each other, hence, an end to war. The greatest accomplishment of my..."first citizen," Caius Iulius Caesar Augustus (yes, my Princeps was indeed a member of gens Iulia).


My Arche Seleukeia campaign - just finished it in late December. It was a really fun campaign, and it gave me a good grounding in Hellenistic history for the course on it I'm taking now.

I'll try to get some pictures of the KH and Qarthadastim campaigns I have going and post them up. -M

Guys, there's the 1.2 faction progression thread in the AARs forum... It's probably the largest thread in the EB forums

Do I have to?

It will look awfully braggish to post my World Empires once again.

Cool empires you got there, may I ask what date it is in your Romaoi campaign?

As far as I understand that thread's purpose is to post the progression of the AI not the EB player, please correct me if I'm wrong.

Get to work!

Seriuosly? Or are you joking? It is the faction progression mod. If you post the map, then both empires are seen, the AI's and yours. Do you think 50 pages of people posted there just so that people can see how the AI's doing?

Note: Now the pictures should be of a more proper size, still sorry about the enormous pictures I had earlier.

Snyggt rike Arthur!

Roman Empire 83 BC

Nice one, have you got the Augustan reforms in that campaign?

[SwissBarbar]

Thank you. Unfortunately not, I have not enough provinces yet. You need 90 of them for the reforms, I have not quite so many. Maybe soon. The Sweboz are attacking and I'm thinking about going north.

The Augustan Reforms are almost impossible to get right? Swêboz can get quite annoying when they reach that size, even more so with the enormous Ptolemaio empire you're facing.
And did they wipe out 4 factions (i.e AS, Hai Pahlava and Baktria) on their own?

SwissBarbar: Do you mind hosting the savegame here for us, if it's 1.2 compatible?

Wait, I told not the truth ^^ I just realized, that I got 105 Provinces, meaning enough for the Augustan Reforms. Must have had the number of Provinces in mind, which I had before conquering Mikra Asia. Since I have more than 400 battles fought, the Augustan reforms now only depend on the right FM to come.
Yes, the Ptolemaioi did all except Baktria by themselves. Baktria was defeated by the Pahlava. The greatest strength the Ptolies had, was when they used to posses all they have now PLUS all of Egypt and Mikra Asia. For example:

This is 160 BC:



And this is 104 BC:



Now imagine the Ptolemaic Empire in between these Dates, f.e. 130 BC. It was an insane fight. They had fullstacks of elite troops with experience they gained in their fights against AS, Baktria, Pahlava and the Hay. I lost about 30'000 soldiers to conquer Egypt alone.

Wasn't there a possibility to upload files directly in the forum. Is it gone? Where to find it?

Having an issue with getting screenshots from my current EB 1.2 BI.exe game. I've got screenshots before, print screen and copy to paint. Or get the tga's from the folder and convert them over to JPEG. But either way seems to be giving me a black screen in the photo's now. Anyone encountered this before and know how I might fix it?

Do you have anti-aliasing on? For some inane reason, AA causes all screenshots to come out entirely dark.

[Blxz]

Yes, I did have AA on. Thanks for that. Didn't even realize I had set it.

This is my sweboz game currently. Date is about 225BC give or take a year. Original goal was control of the baltic but the Sauro's developed a rage that I would choose to border them and declared war. I went east and liberated Gawjam Basternoz and took up to Gelonus and Olbia. After that they agreed to a ceasefire, trade rights and then an alliance all in the one diplo screen. A turn later and both Getai and Rome decided that I was their new target. Rome took Vindobona since I was out of position but is currently under seige and is filled with apeleuthoroi; not a chance against my germanic naked fanatics and chatti spearmen. The getai are seeing the other end; they were unable to take any towns and they are just about to face both my main army from the steppes (almost all baltic troops...archer heavy) and my rebel town killer that just took Ak-Ink by seige without an AI sally because it was large enough. Beautiful pincer attack.



War goals are a bit vague. I want to destroy the Getai because I don't like them very much and because that was my original war direction for later with my rebel killer army. I also have a wierd pleasure in holding Byzantion as the Sweboz.
As for rome, I think I'll take that little eastern bit they have between me and the Epirotes but leave them the Po valley region and as much of gaul as they want for now. This will be a world conquest in the style of Fluvius Camillus if I can hold my nation together long enough. Will be nice to see a world conquest Sweboz but I am worried about public order in the long term. Game play speed is a sort of rushed roleplay. I am managing my family members and not adopting much/at all anymore and essentially only warring when I find a partially justifiable reason. Progress will be sort of slowish mainly as I need to consolidate in order to keep the empire together in the later years.

EDIT: Of note around the world:
Pontus was a major power holding Asia minor up to Tarsus and Trebizond. They have since begun a minor collapse with Getai taking Byzantion what I think was a Halicanassus KH rebellion but might have been a naval invasion and the Macedonians becoming their traditional unstoppable force once they lose macedonia proper. The AS has recovered well and held up to Ankyra until just before this screenshot. Maybe pontus is coming back?
Saba has been fighting hard. Both rebellions and actual conquest. They did hold Sinai region and Gerrah and charax but have since lost a small amount of ground. Its actually hampering the Ptollies alot, I have been checking up with toggle_fow and seen some massive fullstacks kicking Ptollie arse.
Parthia was a giant before but has since lost almost everything as the AS recover, mostly probably because the Ptollies have stopped attacking as they fight back and forth with the Saba.
Epirus WAS dominating but the KH is on the ascent. Taken about 3 towns in greece in the last 10 turns or so.

Everything else has been pretty boring.

[Revoltie]

This is my Makedonian empire around 266, my primary target was Pontus (who took Byzantiun), bu then I was attacked by the Getai (who had an awesome development), who attacked tylis, I offered them a ceasefire with the condition of giving me one of their towns, and they surprisingly accepted, now I'm fairly well with them, I bought something like, four regions, and I'm in doubt whether to attack pontus or keep buying Getai land until they are weak enough for a final attack.

Given the fact that both the Barbaroi and the Getai are in Eastern Europe, I think I'll need to dispatch some more full stacks there, I have one at Naissos now.
