    Cool thread - I think it's gonna be fun to see all the pictures. here are mine:


    My Romani Campaign. I just kept going with it, even after I'd won. Eventually I established a TRUE Pax Romana by making all the other factions client states. This caused them all to make peace with each other, hence, an end to war. The greatest accomplishment of my..."first citizen," Caius Iulius Caesar Augustus (yes, my Princeps was indeed a member of gens Iulia).


    My Arche Seleukeia campaign - just finished it in late December. It was a really fun campaign, and it gave me a good grounding in Hellenistic history for the course on it I'm taking now.

    I'll try to get some pictures of the KH and Qarthadastim campaigns I have going and post them up. -M

    Guys, there's the 1.2 faction progression thread in the AARs forum... It's probably the largest thread in the EB forums

    Do I have to?

    It will look awfully braggish to post my World Empires once again.

    As far as I understand that thread's purpose is to post the progression of the AI not the EB player, please correct me if I'm wrong.

    Seriuosly? Or are you joking? It is the faction progression mod. If you post the map, then both empires are seen, the AI's and yours. Do you think 50 pages of people posted there just so that people can see how the AI's doing?

    He's not joking, actually that thread's purpose really is to see, how the AI is doing. That's why it's called AI-Faction-progression. Of course at the same time you see how the player is doing as well, which is interesting too.

    I thought that the original reason for that thread was to post the progression of the AI to help the EB team to see if any faction is overpowered or underpowered and then change those things accordingly in a later version of the mod.
    It would seem I was correct.

    It would seem I was wrong, my apologies.

    Or was I not wrong? This is confusing...
    Yes well, i'm not denying that this was the original purpose of the thread, however since i looked the threads every new entry for the last year or so, i can definetly tell you that people are posting there to show how their game is progressing in general, to see how everything s' going on. It's basicly show your province-kingdom-empire and the AI thread.

    I don't want to say anything. By all means, create a new thread, i just think people post there for this reason

    As always, VERY impressive, Fluvius!

    Cool empires you got there, may I ask what date it is in your Romaoi campaign?
    I'm not sure exactly what date, but I think that I finally stopped somewhere around 20-10 BCE. I'll have to check. I really should take better pictures. How do you use the print-screen button? I mean, I know you press it, but where do you find the picture your computer took afterward? Thanks, -M

    I would recommend to use a program like fraps, IIRC version 1.9d should be freeware and working with EB, the newer versions are just shareware.

    Cool Hay Empire.
    IDK if Ptoly-Reforms help. If the Ptolies are too weak the AS will go crazy with a great empire. Somehow both must be stopped from eating each other and then having an insane Empire.

    Nice Hay Empire indeed, a difficult faction at best. Well done Sir.

    I think the way to avoid either the Yellow Fever or the Grey Death is to have high discontent in their cities somehow. I just had a go at WRI in BI and there is nothing that curbs your ambitions as high discontent and ruined economy combined.

    Well, it is quite historical that they eat up each other, they are sworn enemies and if Rome did not interfere in history, the decaying Ptollies would have been taken by the Seleukids. Imagine both lands combined under someone like Antiochos III Megas Or IV Epiphanes. Both empires had a good chance to become one of the dominant empires of the time, instead of the Romani. But Romani never expand east in my campaigns, so they don't interfere as in history, so apart from the annoyance of fighting fullstacks, there is nothing strange about it.
