To be honest the only route should be a domination victory i mean rome is built tords that not to mention that a domination victory and a domination victory would be the most fun to watch
If I remember correctly, the Cliffs of Dover is the only natural wonder in Europe for Civ 6. I think most people want to see you do a domination victory, especially as Rome. :)
These are so watchable. I've got work to do and i wish they weren't tbh. Just finished the England TSL and thought 'time to start' - then I saw this Rome TSL campaign. Ah well, this is quality worth failing my A-Levels for.
+Todd The Skeleton, Meme Historian It was tons more impressive. If half the entire known world was conquered under one rule, wouldn't that make it much more meaningful than Rome's slow build up? To add, the Mongolian army was not a giant rape army and was a very tactically advanced and disciplined fighting force.
Actually the biggest extent of the Mongol empire was under Genghis Khan's grandsons. Though, to your point, one united empire was not to last given the limitations on communications and their willingness to be, for a lack of better word, "localized."
+Todd The Skeleton, Meme Historian While the Mongols were indeed a rape army; they didn't die out any time soon that's for sure. His grandson Kubilai Khan was one of the most famous leaders in eurasian history and kept the empire pretty well honestly. They say that over 1% of the ENTIRE WORLD'S population is descended from Genghis Khan because him and his children/grandchildren did so much raping and pillaging etc.. across the world that they fathered thousands of children which eventually became millions over the years. In fact, the Mongol Empire lasted all the way from 1206 AD to 1502 AD when they were finally pushed out of Russia after having lost the Yuan Dynasty rule the mongols had over China in 1368 and the subsequent splintering of the entire Mongol horde in 1405 which left Russia as the only place still under Mongol Rule. So if you wanna be real technical, the "empire" died out in the late 1300's AD, but that was still nearly 200 years of rule; and if you consider the empire still alive until their defeat in Russia it would be a 300 year rule!

While i do like TSL I have to say I miss you playing on random maps. There are more surprises and challenges (many times) in a random map. Also we get to see diferent civs, I don't think Brazil has popped up in any of your lets plays so far. Besides there are just no enough civs to fill this world. I'll be watching this series, I'm sure I will enjoy it, but I think you should consider playing on random maps again after this. (Since you are always doing two series why not one TSL and one Random?) Anyway, keep up the good work Drew, your videos are always great.
Drew I can help you get those shoulders of Gorgo. All you need to do is get stronger at military Press. Add weight and get to a point where you can do your own body weight for 5 reps above your head and you will have insane shoulders. Also gorgo has good side delt development so some high volume lateral raises will help you get that width. I been training for 4 years let me know man
TheScaleless tbh greenland is still a shithole to this day even after hundreads of years after settling it, like how many greenlandians are out there? only like 50k or something like that
You should've just have planned to conquer Valletta, with Valletta conquered you wouldn't have even needed Ostia as a canal city and could've settled 1 or 2 tiles further east to grab more of the Adriatic from Gorgo. I'd still grab Valletta at some point, taking them would still give you great control over the Mediterranean. As for the Victory, I'd say go for Cultural or Domination.
Valletta could build stuff on Sicily, and if they're close enough maybe even in North Africa. Keeping it would also give you complete control over the central part of the Mediterranean, it would keep Spain and Greece completely separated and might be able to grab some nice deals from them to open seas for them. It would definitely be a limited city though, If Carthage is around then that would be the better city to keep.
Know this sounds weird but go for Australia or New Zealand I'm big fan of theirs!! Not now at first maybe later. Otherwise I think a cultural victory would be fun to.
To be honest the only route should be a domination victory i mean rome is built tords that not to mention that a domination victory and a domination victory would be the most fun to watch.
Please buy that tile on the east coast of Italy, north of Rome. It'll be be SOME sort of shitty if Athens beats you to it and Gorgo puts an encampment there!
22:42 you skipped your range attack (when you move to your city center, even though you move across the river, it doesn't cost additional movement points)
I would like to see all civs random starting locations immortal, giant earth ,random civ, with barbarians I think seeing where everyeone starts and how they do from their locations to win would be fun . prob need to do score only victory but if you think you can do space or culture go for it
Just played as rome, took the capital of poland. I took classic republic as govt. Denounced by germany, poland, and nubia. 150 turns , war declared on me by all of these countries, i tried to settle in africa and nubia was pissed. She had the whole continent to herself
You should go after gorgo and then Frederick. by that time Frederick may his hansa and you can use your southern city to produce settlers to settle carthage. and definitely kill that city state to your south.
Instead of making the roman empire which wouldnt be special try and make the Holy Roman Empire which would be new get the french and germans to work together
+J Wyman Except it was lol... The Holy Roman Empire was controlled by very pious religious Kings such as Charlemagne etc.. who considered it VERY holy, it was made up of the remnants of the fallen original Roman Empire (and is thus an empire, albeit smaller than the original), and it DID encompass a large chunk of Italy too so is thus quite Roman really; especially since the ONLY reason that the city of Rome itself is not included in maps of the HRE was because Rome and the immediate surrounding area was considered its own entity in these times (i.e. The Vatican, it was just known as the Papal States back then. It was still considered part of the Holy Roman Empire nonetheless though). The only part of Italy that wasn't really considered part of or associated with the HRE was the kingdoms of Sicilly, split into the island of Sicillia itself and the very southern tip of Italy.
DREW THERE IS A REPLAY VIDEO in the victory screen on the bottom tabs there is a button that says 'REPLAY MOVIE' it frustrates me so much that you missed this This comment is going to be posted in every civ 6 video until you realise
