Chris's Ludicrous Migration

[Tellos Athenaios]

Apart from the Romani and of course Chris_'s crazy Lusotanna all living factions seem to have taken rather plausible expansion routes...

You are absolutely freaky...just having that idea is madness, but actually pulling this through and establishing a firm base on the other side of the world...awesome
I think I should try the same with the Saka Rauka and perhaps move to Ireland

How did you make your maps? I'm interested if you found a quick and easy way of colouring only the provinces as I myself log my campaign progress simultaneously on a killsheet (edited one from SPQR mod and added an "Action"-Sheet where I write down all important happenings like diplomatic changes, battles, expansion strategies etc.) and a map of campaign. I used the same map as you did (the giant one with 3000x1857 pixels^^) but colouring everything "from hand" takes quite a while as I update my map every 5 years with a new layer showing the current size of all factions.

I guess this is another "Shameless advert for the Replay Viewer by Chris_", then?

Wonder if me walking through making alliances with everyone had some effect on this?

At the minute it doesn't make replays, but it can load data about the owners of cities, their stats etc, and generates a map (which can be saved). I just did another advert. Damnit.

Re : Migration
Took Gandhara and Sind back, but Phalava is sending hordes of Pantadapoi at me, whose only purpose is to make squelchy sounds when they get shot by arrows/ran down by horses. Also being asked by them to become a protectorate every turn by this diplomat that seems to enjoy hanging around my capital. Random towns in Spain keep revolting to me and killing my economy with full stacks of troops.

Just another update. I've taken 4 more provinces, and making quick progress against the Phalava. Their main force is Pantadapoi/Persian Spearmen, and cities are lightly guarded, so most battles are pretty simple. Occasionaly I run into a few units of Cataphracts, or a family member, which can cause some problems. It's odd, sometimes their armies contain lots of heavy cavalry, and their General is a Pantadapoi, who I proceed to kill with archers.

I might attempt to finish of Baktria soon - their last settlement is full of skirmishers, and they have another stack of skirmishers standing outside. Ptolies are slowing down in their westward expansion, and are currently at the top of Italy. Apparently all those Romans funneled into one area is taking a toll on their forces. Carthage has taken advantage of this, and has captured parts of southern Italy. Elsewhere though, the Ptolies continue to make ground, working their way around the Black Sea (from both directions).

On a side note, I love Hyrkanian Hillmen, they've saved many battles

Can you make us up another map, please?
