Your Greatest Generals

[Malrubius]

Do you have any interesting generals that you want to tell about? Here's the place to post their screenshots and tell their stories. They don't necessarily have to have a lot of Command stars or Management scrolls. Maybe they've gotten some unusual traits or ancillaries, or have obtained high office in their faction. Perhaps they've won at the Olympics, or achieved greatness through conquering some city or ancient landmark.

(You can get a good screenshot, clear of clutter, in the PreBattle scroll (where you have the option to fight or run away), by clicking on the general's portrait).

[Rodion Romanovich]

As the Romani, I got one with "Vanquisher of the Galli" a few minutes ago, which I'm pretty proud of as it's still only 260 BC. I decided my fleet wasn't ready for an invasion of Carthage so I halted my expansion south after taking Sicily, and concentrated on expanding north, contrary to what the real roman policy seems to have been. After taking most of the rebel cities, 1 Aeudi city in northern Italy and 2 Arverni cities (Gergovia and the city with a name resembling "Vienna"), I got the message that my general could perhaps soon go to Rome and declare himself Imperator . He only has 2 command stars, but that'll hopefully be possible to change in the coming decade of warfare in Gaul...

Chremonides for Koinon Hellenon. He didn't have a single command star or white management thing, but he had 10 influence. He had a bunch of philosopher type ancillaries, the only one I remember of the top of my head is Zeno. He led my armies into a lot of battles against Macedon and lost almost as many. His troops had no confidence in him and his movement points were restricted because of injuries sustained in battle. His only victory against a substantial Macedonian force was outside of Chalkis in 270 BC. He and most of my army died defending Athens in 264. His son died the same turn in an unsuccessful defense of Thermon.

Cool story! Sounds like your typical Athenian.

My pride and joy. After 14 years of warring with neighboring tribes on the British Isles, conquered all of it with his loyal troops. He has way too many traits to capture in a screenshot, even in the pre-battle screen. So much more to say about the man and the campaign...... but..... too tired...... right now......

Wow, I've never seen an EB general with stats like that...
