LildawgGaming 115 Posted December 29, 2018 I started a game with the 5 AD Start Date. I decided to play risky and choose a Germanic Tribe Close to Rome. I began by dominating my weaker neighbors. Soon, a small coalition formed against Rome. I was the only one who managed to take land as everyone else died. Soon I had an army and threatened all of the other Germanic Tribes to become my vassals, eventually annexing them. However this came at a cost. I had to assimilate ALOT of territory. Thankfully, Rome was being nice to me. After assimilating a whole lot of territory for about 2 hundred turns, I discovered America and defeated some Native American Monarchies. Parts of Central and South America was gobbled up pretty easily. Assimilation also wasn't too hard. Then I turned my focus to the giant red monster of Rome in Europe. I built up my armies and... ...They surrendered without a fight... No, I am not joking. I was so scary strong, that I vassalized Rome and eventually ate them in their entirety. They also could have EASILY matched me. But they took the coward's route and submitted to me. I plan on continuing this playthrough. I have A THOUSAND TRUCK LOADS of land to assimilate now. Difficulty: Normal Fog of War: Discovery AI Aggressiveness: 125% Note: I made my empire bright green to help show it better on the second map.

DragosRS 33 Posted December 29, 2018 (edited) This is actually a really good strategy, easier to do in later scenarios cuz german lands are worth the same and there is no ROME but well done Edited December 29, 2018 by DragosRS Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
