Grand Strategy Imperator: Rome - the new grand strategy from Paradox

[fantadomat]

This was such a pathetic let down. Hopefully paradox can do better with CK3

Change inheritance laws: 80 mana
Marry with ally: 10 mana
Marry with neutral: 15 mana
Marry with hostile: 30 mana
Assassinate: 50 mana

Marrying a black woman: Free, forced through event

Only if you are playing as woman transitioning in to a man!

To be fair, I like the idea of supply trains. In EU and CK2 armies live off by photosynthesis.

Yeah, they finally gave the armies proper logistics.

They need to port this to EUIV and CKII post-haste.

Would be cool if they make it so you can pillage enemy lands and take some food this way, while the enemy can take the food and scorch the land to deny you food and feed their own forces.

Hopefully this won't lead to exploits like sending 100k men armies into the deep desert with no penalties whatsoever.

Could lead to interesting dynamics too, like doing fast attacks without supply wagons, in order to secure enemy regions fast and start getting food from them. Or supplying sieged armies through the water.

So long as the supply issues are coded for the AI as well. Nothing worse than having to constantly build supply wagons or forts in a campaign, only to find out that your AI enemy's 50 thousand man army has been marching around for the last 6 months with one sack of corn and hard tack.

AGEOD sort of had a work-around with the EASY SUPPLY option, force cohesion, and provincial supply paths. Paradox's logistics seem really shallow by comparison. They could do it right, but they may overthink the whole supply issue and break their damn games. Which, given their track record is probably the approach they'll take.

BACON WAGON-DLC coming soon!

The missions are the only fun thing left in the game lol. Painting the map get old fast,it is not like you can do anything else in the game. At least mission make you feel like playing a nice relaxing campaign. This days i only play mission based games and take only the claims.

 

[Fedora Master]

lmao, the game is a top seller right now due to the sale. Only 26 bux!
Poor fools.

Actually, medieval logistics, and the reliance on forage can make things pretty interesting:
Foraging with a larger part of the army makes the process more efficient, but the army more vulnerable, and should generally be avoided in friendly territories.
In Lords of the Realm 1, you could allocate people to forage/construction/assault (if I recall) during sieges, which was cool, and something I wish was done more often (and the breaches were done over time, and not during the assault, like in the total war series).

When the rulers of Messana invited Roman protection for their Sicilian city, they could not have expected that they were igniting a fierce rivalry that would set the Western Mediterranean aflame for over a century. Carthage had traditionally seen Sicily as its sphere of influence and it could accept no equal on the island. Rome and Carthage would go to war in 265 BC, in the first of three wars that would finally end with the sack of Carthage in 146 BC.

This free content pack for Imperator: Rome includes new events and units models to illustrate the greatest wars of the classical age - the superpower showdown between the nascent Roman Republic, and the established Carthaginian Empire.

It's literally nothing.

 

[Jenkem]

it's an opportunity to post negative reviews since it's a separate dlc

They really should add micro transactions to Imperator. Everyone knows that's how you can make tons of money even with a shit game most of the community hates.

No surprise there. They made a game that's supposed to be a hybrid between EU4 and CK2, and gave it less content than either CK2 or EU4 alone. Of course people don't play it.

Is it still alive? Those pesky Swedes are persistent, I give them that.

 

[Fedora Master]

It's going to be exactly like Stellaris with endless reworking of systems without improving anything.

Hate to quote myself but...
