Julii PBM - out of character thread

[econ21]

Generalhankerchief just finished his Vandal write-up (haven't had time to read it myself yet, I confess). I'm happy to wait a little longer if he wishes. Just so long as we don't let this campaign die.

Ok, reign's done. It's all yours, econ21.

Savegame: http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/Juliipbm234s.zip

Just a couple things that looking at the savegame won't tell you:
-Manius Victor (Julius) just lost his legion outside of Vicus Venedae, but escaped with two other bodyguards. It's best if he retreats to Dulcus Domus Dulcus or another nearby settlement.
-The Spanish army sieging Corduba has done it before, but whenever you sally out they withdraw (oddly enough, on the battle map and not campaign).
-There's a Senate mission ordering us to blockade Scallabis. A bireme is en route.
-"A Chance for Power" has just come up.

I have a long weekend, so if we're lucky the writeup will be up soon.

Finally, just a little something I found while playing:



Enjoy.

Already!?

Looks like if I do get another turn, it'll be in the middle of the civil war. Woohoo!

[GeneralHankerchief]

Write-up's done.

Hopefully the events that happened in the third post won't limit anything, econ.

Nice write up GH.

Like the strategic blocking in of Brutii. Were there any opportunities to work with our allies the Brutii ?

[GeneralHankerchief]

Nah, they've mostly been going for Southern Greece. I think we'll beat them to Byzantium, which is my goal for every Julii game.

And the Scipii have just loaded up on armies in Italy and Sicily but haven't done anything with them. So the Civil War'll be a barrel of fun...

Thats a good writeup, noy my try-of-write-up
We have forgotten a thing:
The story telling!

[Zimfan40]

From Econ21's writeup:
"Instead, his arrow lodged in Manius’s neck and Manius the Victor, the hero of the Julii faction fell dead, his blood staining the snow on the steppes."

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, carry on.

[Zimfan40]

From econ21's writeup "Why does my father believe I am any less a man because sometimes I prefer snails to oysters?"

A Spartacus fan I take it?


Getting ever closer to my turn...
