looks like a leftover from .74, before the Liby-Phoecian's were converted to overhand thrust style.

It's like that in nearly all of my games....I remember I used to hear much talk of the unstoppable force that was the silver death.Originally Posted by raenor
It no longer exists....nearly every game sees the Arche Seleukeia partitioned between the Ptolemaioi and Baktria.
There are new deaths in .8x, although the yellow death and blue death just don't have the same ring to them.![]()

That's what used to happen in the 0.7x series too...

Well, it's probably been at least a year since I remember seeing threads complaining about overpowered AS.
I only remember it because it was right when I started to follow EB. Apparently, it was a big hullabaloo at some point.

I don't know about Blue Death, but Yellow Death sounds like a particularly nasty name for a plague.
In my campaigns Baktria hasnt become a monster. In one it destroyed Saka and started expanding in the Steppes but not as powerful as that one there.
In my Mak campaign which is around 200 BC AS is a monster and im only just winning the war between me and an AS/Ptol alliance :(
yeah, too bad you all have completely gone OFFTOPIC lol, but yeah, Parthia has been swallowed by bactria, I have swallowed all of Pontos and now I'm about to eat up all of the Selukid holdings in Asia minor, the germans though, they are making me a bit nervous...
(The Selukid's were eaten alive by the Ptolomies, but then I enabled their survival by taking over Antioch and giving it to them, and then later I took over Galatia and let it rebel due to the fact it was right next to the Ptolomies and I didnt want to go to war with them yet, but then the Selukid's backstabbed me and attacked me a few turns later)
Yes i did use alot of eating words because I just ate dinner.![]()
Oh yeah, on topic....that's pretty crazy? I assume they forgot about it, or maybe they kept it for shits and giggles?
SSbQ*****************SSbQ******************SSbQ
TBH I doubt the EB team would have in-jokes in the game (like the city "Domus Dulcis Domus" in Vanilla) as they want it to be 100% historically accurate.
Its an ui probelm, the uis for the salve faction had not been updated for that particular unit, in battle they would look like the new version.Oh yeah, on topic....that's pretty crazy? I assume they forgot about it, or maybe they kept it for shits and giggles?
Well, most of those are gone, although I note that several descriptions are still missing- not important from a gameplay perspective, but I do like to read all the descriptions.
The only remaining peasant card I've noticed is the rebel Poeni militia. surely they could have the same picture as their Carthaginian brethren?
Well suprise surpise, in my campaign as Romani, I and Arche Seleukeia share the world about 45% each, only 10% belongs to other factions... And Casse has best economy and military ranking, own all of the British isles except the southern province in Ireland, and my spy landed about 5 game years before my planned invasion of the British isles, spotted about 5 full stacks apart from their garrison troopsOriginally Posted by Bootsiuv
Naturally, I'll invade them with just a little over 1 full stack of own auxilia troops (recruited in lvl4 settlements in Gaul and Iberia)

Casse have the best economy and military ranking and they don't even own the entire british isles?
You and AS must be broke and ill-equipped for war. :P

The Koinon Hellenon looks poised to burst from Kriti and make Makedonia it's bitch.

Never.
Or, at least not when I control Makedonia.![]()
Nah, on the contrary I have too much money to know what to do with itOriginally Posted by Bootsiuv
It took a long time until I found out how to reduce my treasury a little bit: by lowering taxes in the Italic peninsula to minimum to grow my home cities to huge to be able to better meet later massive demands for troops (a good long term investment, plus it allows me to build latifundiae to get marian reforms), and secondly to hire more and more mercs instead of bothering with own troops.
Oh, by the way, AS declared war on me right after I made my last post... I had navally landed 2 stacks in Asia minor, one to the south and one to the north, to capture two AS cities that had gone rebels. AS didn't like me doing this, and attacked one of my besieging stacks. Now, I'll try to explain to them, why all previous factions that have attacked me have either been eliminated (Arverni, Aedui, KH, Epeiros, Kart hadast etc) or turned into buffer zones against steppe nomads (Sweboz)!First, my 2 armies in North Africa will move from Cyrene towards the Nile delta, then my 2 armies in Asia minor will conquer everything up to Antioch. An interesting situation in this war is the problem of Makedonia blocking Byzantion so all my troop transports to Asia minor must go over the sea during the invasion. I suspect Makedonia will choose to declare war on me eventually, probably at the most critical time
