    Yeah, those forums where you actually have to read are so annoying, wonder why people make them...

    I have honestly no idea why this happens. It was a problem just after the forum upgrade, but our administrator changed some settings and it was solved. Maybe you should ask him?

    Funny. In a Jehova's Witness kinda way. I mean the vertically oriented posts. It's like a newspaper, and the endless scrolling that it inflicts upon readers reminds of unfoldable newspapers.

    But uhm, you're a veteran here... Any suggestions on what i could do now?

    I have a suggestion.
    Start a new campaign and play without cheating.
    It works for me.

    Migrate somewhere with the KH. That's always fun.

    Migrate to West Africa and try to hold back Carthage with Numidian units. So the only real infantry you will get are Garamantines, the rest will be assorted skirmishers and missile cavalry. Would be a real challenge I think.

    x30 From mikepettytw for showing how to edit in game text.
    From Brennus for wit.

    Some of those units are surprisingly powerful. That would be fun.

    Oi mate, don't like to read newspapers or somethin' yea? My old man loves to read newspapers, did ya know that? so does the 95 year old neighbor of mine who catered to Churchill, Stalin and Roosevelt God knows how long ago in their first conference together during the War. If indeed there is only one way of reading these forums, what in God's name can you, I, or any body else do about it? If we could, we would've done something by now, don't ya think so?

    As for the game...you say you're a roleplayer? I like to roleplay too once in a while. It spices things up. But when I'm in a sticky situation like the one you're in, I like to go to the saved campaigns folder, delete the God forsaken campaign, and start afresh. How's that for a role?

    Good luck pal.

    Conquering Casse by 265 is always fun.

    Troy wouldn't have had cavalry, all they would have would be some medium and infantry. Besides, the Trojan war occurred about 900 years before this game.

    Yes, i know the Trojan war was way before 272BC (if it ever happened), but then again apart from Pytheas, no Greek should see the Isles in the games time frame either. :p

    Koinon Hellenon seems to be the popular faction for migrations. Because there's a lot of Greek settlements around the med? Well, if you give yourself the Augustan reforms early you really have an unrivaled AOR from the British Isles, through Germania up until the Crimea, from Gibraltar to Seleukos: Legionarries for everyone.


    One thing about a Roman migration: could it be that a prospective triumphator doesn't get any children until he has had his triumph? My Brittannicus, despite having a fertile (wise, healthy) wife and being fertile himself got no kids. One of the surviving Blasio sons, prospective triumphator, stopped after 2 daughters. The one survivng Blasio who is still green has 4 kids.

    Another thing you can do is play as Saba and migrate to either India or Ethiopia and role-play it as one of them. Or just play as Saba, they have it hard enough...
    You don't even really have to cheat for those.
