And another good player plays 250 years and gets the same result, only against tougher AI resistance and with longer drawn out wars. It's just whatever you personally prefer.

And another good player doesn't conquer the map, but roleplays everything, including his own state's downfall.

Like in my short AAR (which had many views, but almost no comments - although it had a very good review in the critics quill on twcenter)

Yeah, too bad, we cant have alternate victory condition. I personally think the pontos could choose to become hellenistic empire that rule the black sea region, or reforge the old persian empire, oh wait the kalmar union thingies made those as possibility (pontos, hayasdan, or pahlava could turn themself into the old persian empire when they capture several certain city, but that will need one faction slot)

Haha. Who said you can't have alternate victory conditions?

Thought you were a modder!

Does anyone even play EB to get the Victory conditions? I think there are 2 kinds of EB players:

1) The ones who are playing historicaly and roleplay a lot, don't blitz the enemy etc... (like me)

2) The ones that blitz right from the start, and don't stop once they reach the victory conditions
