Crusader Kings II

[Beskar]

i have a suggestion for a new challenge :P reconquer the entire dejure roman empire (as in: all the provinces you can conquer by using the reconquest CB) but you have to do so as the Spartenos in Napoli at 1066 :D

You won't believe this, but that is what I did for myself as the very first thing! I have gone past those borders though.

15500 cataphract retinue, worth 49600 normal 'men', for upkeep of 2.4 gold per month. Basically unbeatable. Can levy 151000-ish from Vassals. 1177.2 gold income per month. Would be even higher if I properly invested my money into buildings and wasn't affected by a bunch of modifiers.
