What does your empire look like?

[Bombasticus Maximus]

In your current game I posted it in here as I can't post it anywhere else. I am playing the house of julii.


What I don't understand is that I have all that land and the scipii have 6 full stacked armies in the top of africa and they are not using them?

[Alexanderofmacedon]

Welcome to the forums Bombasticus Maximus! That look like quite the empire you have there. Sometimes the AI isn't very smart, so that's probably why the Scipii haven't done anything yet.

Let me try and post my RTR campaign as Macedon. I've taken all of Greece and am in Asia minor fighting the Ptolemac and Seleucid and Gaulic empires.

Never seen the AI Thrace go so far into Asia Minor before. Interesting..

[Bombasticus Maximus]

Yeah I have strange campaigns once the julii took carthage before the struggle for power.

Why on earth have the britians took Ludgunum for they just be stupid as there surrounded by the enemy and that can only mean (death). What settings you playing on?

I think I helped by not expanding further north than Thessalonica. Macedon had only one settlement remaining, so they were ripe for the taking. Seemed to give the Thracians the added 'umph' to push on and conquer Dacia.

If your roman are you going to take rome as soon as you can or wait until you take the rest of the map first?

Playing VH/H

The Britons were expanding pretty fast early on, but they lost their way and got surrounded by the Julii and Gaul.

Ive just taken Rome, and Croton - so half of Italy and all of Sicily is under my control. Taking the other half from the Julii will be more challenging. I also intend to begin expand along the North African coast.

You should play some mods such as RTR of EB. If you want links let me know.

I would, thanks.

I usually play on M/M as I suck at getting money levels up but I can beat enemies on hard I just choose to build my skills up first.

Numidia, 242 BC, VH/M.



The hardest campaign I`ve ever had; so far I`ve only conquered one settlement, with the possibility that I might loose one of them.

it was a joke to annoy Craterus, but thanx for the info

[Bombasticus Maximus]

Ok so I played a little more.



the rise for power is here I could take rome but I'm not going too. Egypt are becoming a threat so I have sent an army down there to take some land. In ireland I am having some trouble because of these guys:



I was looking how egypt was doing and see the near surrounded parthian settlement around 10 generals and one full stacked army I was like WOW .
I am also getting alot of generals from one turn I got three which all were from the family so had silver armour and weapons. It's starting to get intresting.

i would forget ireland, I've never seen the need to take it. In fact, I would destroy all the buildings in all of britain and pull out. Leave it to the rebels. In my Julii campaign it was near impossible to hold onto without full stacks of town watch/peasants. Even they need to get payed

[Bombasticus Maximus]

Britians on for me just ireland. I'll leave that alone until I make alot of urban cohorts and out number them by alot.

Archer auxilla will probably do as well. Experience does not protect against arrows.

[Bombasticus Maximus]

I have my own gold experience army somewhere so I'll just use them.
