Oldest suitor

[Pharnakes]

I would be good (and realistic, I belive) but sadly can't be done.


EDIT: ohh, and whats AA?

[Tellos Athenaios]

Anti Aliasing? What do you mean, OT?

[Gazius]

Well, he married a 47 year old wife and died at 76. But damn if I haven't gotten a large spat of 70's year olds lately.

[Pharnakes]

How can Anti Anilasing be for quitters?

[Tellos Athenaios]

Ah, the sig. Now I see.

[MarcusAureliusAntoninus]

Alcoholics Anonymous. A support group for alcoholics attempting to quit.

[skuzzy]

Funny bringing this up today, was just playing for few hours and almost all suitors I got were older than 60 :D Oldest I think was 78 and second oldest 75 :D And yeah I didn't accept them just so they can die the next year on me :D

[Strategy]

Exactly. This become very apparent when taking a closer look at the relations between the Diadochi. Seleucos Nikator for example, his second wife (Stratonike) was the daughter of Demetrios (son of Antigonos Monophthalmos). He was 56 at the time of the marriage, she only 17. (This marriage was only one or two years after the battle of Ipsus, in which Seleucos defeated Antigonos (and Demetrios) and in which Antigonos was killed.) After Seleucos' death his son (Antiochos Soter) married Stratonike (his stepmother).

Actually, the story is much better. Seleukos and Stratonike had a daughter (Phila); and the marriage between Antiochos and Stratonike occured while Seleukos was still very much alive. Seleukos then sent Antiochos off to govern the eastern provinces. The Seleukos-Stratonike-Antiochos marriage triangle was a well-loved source of material for hellenistic authors and playwrights.

how can you be a skilled infantry commander and never seen a lick of battle in your life?

[Emperor Burakuku]

AA = Anti Aircraft Gun.

Maybe he's spent all his time training infantry? I thought that the Green trait was about not having commanded in a battle? If so, he could have served as an NCO, or an infantry commander, just not a general.

[Pharnakes]

No, you don't have to lead to loss the green trait, at least I don't think you do. Anway, he could easily have learned the theory, if never put it to test.

AA = Anti Aircraft Gun

Did you only read half the thread?

Green or blue she's got the girl (38 yo ). I can use a good infantry commander unless he dies before reaching the battlefield.

Btw, what is the oldest age your FMs and wives give birth?

From the yet unpublished Annals of Lusotana:

Year 86 of Our Holy Forefather Tantalos. A gift of the holy Bandue! The 63 year-old governor of Lacetana, Causenos Conistorgicoi and his 47 year-old wife Setiza, granddaughter of the noble Ditalkos son of Tantalos, have rejoiced by the birth of their son Sekonzos Conistorgicoi in Emporion.
