He survived arrows, spears, chariots, and died to a knife. Guess what the knife is made of? STEEEL! Which is mined from ROCK!

Few announcements :
* All battles that stage <1000 units will no longer be shown in the LP. Instead, there will be only key screenshots : Start, general dying (if there is one), results breakdown. This number may increase later on.
There may be exceptions : 995 super-heavy-cavalry battle will probably be shown, 10 000 peasants will never be shown. Boring battles may be not listed regardless of numbers.
* I'm not taking any requests regarding Scythia. It will be left alone until i conquer entire Egypt, Seleu and everything else in the area. Perhaps even till i take Greece. Or for good. Scythia is useless when compared to south provinces. Scythia will not be present in voting poll for a long time.
* I appreciate all suggestions and advices, but i assure you, that i do know what i'm doing. (unless i'm sober) Thus, please, don't tell me how to move a unit around the map, or anything as... well.. blaergh.
* General "Stats" i don't care about at all, and there will be no exclusive breakdowns of what traits, companions and stars they have.
* Pontus has two full stacks hidden behind a rock.. somewhere.. like a midget using a urinal, we need to stay on our toes.

That is all. Thank you.

Sure about the Scythian thing, although once we take out Egypt we're all getting on a boat and conquering Britannia for the fun of it.

Do so! Rome is awesome. Burning it down with peasants even more so.

The reason behind my outrage was that he wasn't getting hit. We avoided all phalanx attacks, got hit only by a few arrows and perhaps a peasant fist or two.. We maneuvered like Richard Maneuverson (or whoever is good at maneuvering).. and a pathetic dagger drops him. Meh.

"Public Order : 0. Distance to Capital penalty 9000%" Sounds like a plan!

Wow, great. That should allow us to recruits some of those awesome-looking cataphract archers.

Sinope can train them too. Once Pontus starves there.. Cataphract Archers.

You forgot cultural penalty, squalor and possibly garrison. We might just be able to create the unhappiest settlement ever.

New poll has been added.
Here is a quick breakdown of the votes :

General Info : Greece has the biggest army and income at the moment. The second and third places are.. Seleucid and Egypt. We are at war with Scythians, Parthans, Greece, Thrace, Pontus, and only a thin foil veil away from Wars with Seleucid and Egypt.

A - Seleucid have two provinces in Anatolian Peninsula not counting the permanently-sieged Antioch. There is also a rebel town. It's easily defendable, and coupled with Susa on the East and Kotais north, will form an immovable wall. It's the "Kick Seleucid in the nuts" vote option.

B - "Kick Seleucid in the nuts, and continue doing so till they die" option. Should be obvious.

Options A and B (War with Seleucid) are somewhat safer. We take the closest enemy first.

C - Tricky. We'll have to take entire Egyptian force on. Just a few turns (and glorious battles) will stab them in the eye to total uselessness.

D - "Stab them in the eyes, and continue doing so till they die".

E - "I want to fight the entire world" option. With Greece, Seleucid and Egypt all facing us at once, we'd risk everything.. but a victory would.. WILL.. ensure total world domination.

Notice that there is no "Invade Greece" option. We will do it, but for now our own backyard is most important.. Unless Brutii start advancing rapidly..
Stakes are getting high. Romans got cockblocked in their expansion for now, but they will advance soon.

Lastly : i can take entire Pontus in one update, but depending on the votes i will do it faster / slower.

Greece, as in the city states that are always exterminated? Well, I didn't expect that.

 I'm going for taking out the Egyptians, they can cause hell if they get powerful. The Seleucids will fall easily enough.

Greece is pretty hardcore if the nations don't beat them when they're just starting. Their hoplites would be hell against cav.

That was a suitably epic way for our glorious rock-eating leader to go out!

As it turns out, the pen was in fact a poor choice for melee combat in comparison to the sword.
So I just started playing this game and I accidentally nuked the moon.
