Germania PBM

[Tricky Lady]

So I just finished the first (short) reign in the Germanic PBM.
It doesn't matter that this reign was so short (not even 10 years). If you guys don't mind you can put me back at the end of the list; I'll play a second reign later on then.

Settings:

• patch 1.2
• imperial campaign - conquer Rome + 50 provinces
• normal/normal
• 5 provinces/towns per reign

so this is the current list of 'volunteers':

• Tricky Lady (Ariminius, 270bc - 261bc)
• Quietus (Ariogaisus, 261bc - 250bc)
• Simon Appleton (Ariogaisus & Vannius, 250bc - 239bc)
• Swordsmaster (Vannius, 239bc - 222bc)
• YAKOBU (Vannius, 222bc - ?)
• Emperor Umeu 1
• Craterus
• if necessary, Tricky Lady again

• 10 provinces conquered maximum within a reign.
• If the faction leader dies before taking in at least 7 provinces, the player must continue (but the 10 limit still apply).
• If the faction leader dies and has taken in at least 7 provinces, the player will turnover the game to the next player.

Here's a brief summary of what I've done:
- moved faction leader to Bordesholm and conquer province;
- trade rights with Britannia, Dacia, Gauls, Macedonia, Scythia
- as expected Gauls attack Trier; defeated Gauls (Meriadoc)
- as expected Britons attacked Batavadorum in the same year; my ambush army is spotted by a Briton spy so it's a regular battle
- ambushed and destroyed a Briton army near Samarobriva;
- moved a small army to Vicus Gothii to conquer this town
- Gauls attack and conquer Mogontiacum (oops)
- move anti-Gaul army back to reconquer Mogontiacum (autoresolve, bad mistake)
- seige Samarobriva - few battles take place
- Samarobriva conquered (autoresolved)
- death of faction leader after conquest of Samarobriva.

Making huge profits now because our armies are nearly evaporated thanks to silly use of autoresolve button (sorry!).

I'll create a thread for write-ups only tomorrow or on Thursday. I've tried to take as many screens as possible (but forgot it many times). Write-up won't be spectacular but I'll try to make the best of it!

The savegame can be found here.

Have fun, Quietus!
