Bloody hell, the British tourism board must be doing well.

Everyone does know the weather's shit, right?

I would have figured you would relocate the Britons to Spain or Greece, fighting over the key vacation spots with the Germans. First one to the Balearic Isles wins!

also an option

I did that once with the seleucids. Spent every last denarii sailing my entire faction over to ireland. By time i got there, i was 100,000 in the red. I died after 5 more turns. But i do agree, it adds a fun spin to an otherwise repetitive game. Because once you get there, you have to catch as many settlements as possible to get your money back, while only using the same army. Because after all, if you're in debt, you can't retrain the troops.

Once, I moved the entire parthian faction into gual...

It was odd...

If multiplayer campaign is ever made for RTW, that would be a good idea. The britons and the germans in a race to get the best places in sunny greece, or maybe egypt.

did a grande crusade with Gaul, i marched to rome destroying every city on my way. then killed all roman factions and sailed to Jerusalem and took it, and then made it my Capitol. i established a army there and sailed back to england. i conquered it and now i'm a million in red.

A million in the red!? Crikey.

You already know the chavs would beat you to Spain....

Nah, they wouldn't beat me to spain, they'd beat me to Palma. After all, we all know what island that is, and that it just so happens to be chav holiday paradise. It's a breeding ground for the burberry scum.
