*Health update: Health update: Saw a doctor and she said I should see a surgeon, getting blood work today, surgeon appointment tomorrow and ultrasound Monday. If pain gets worse I should go to A&E. Fun times. I'm dipping into my savings and getting private appointments as I just want to get to the bottom of things... Unless they get worse then I'll hook up with the NHS A&E.*
ZechsMerquise73 Nah, nah. You see, Caesar was a godless Corbynite and Brutus was an upstanding Blairite turned Liberal Democrat, and was only doing his duty to protect the Roman establishment from such a dangerous threat.
Hey, I'm the 3D artist who worked on the units and portrait art as well as a few other bits and pieces. Glad people are enjoyign the mod, it still has a long way to go but the team is very commited to make a great mod that any Tolkien fans can enjoy :) If anyone has any questions or suggestions, feel free to comment and I'll try and get back to you.
@@skirk248 It has the best mod support by far. Lots of great tools for making the map, node based custom particle systems, dynamic script reloading in-game, way better 3D support, WAY better scripting language than previous Paradox games which makes a lot of stuff possible only in Imperator, powerful UI scripting and UI editor, and lastly the fact the game devs themselves frequent the discord to help modders out and add features we ask for through patches. Once most the vanilla stuff has been replaced in the mod, why does it matter what the original game is? Its easily the beat choice for a total conversion like this. Getting just to this point in CK2 or EU4 would have taken 10 times longer
@Gray Matter Everyone has different goals. Some people like myself just enjoy tinkering with games and seeing how far you can push the engine. Others just want to make the game how they would have made it. Some do it for fame, others for money (the ones constantly pointing to their patreon and donation links). Its also a good way to get into the games industry. A lot of the devs at Paradox started off as modders for previous games but got hired. Heck a lot of devs in any company will say they started with modding
You picked Gondor at the start of the Kinstrife. Smart. You will get a civil war every time. It is supposed to happen. Though it looks like they didn't fix the death variables just right yet. Try Arthedain or Cardolan next. Those don't have civil wars but get to deal with Angmar. Also unification of the three kingdoms.
And I think giving up frontierlands to barbarian invaders so they could focus on winning the civil war is literally a thing that happened. 7/5 for historical accuracy!
Content amazing as ever, great work alex and don't worry about not being able to upload or whatever as I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say that we wish you the best and hope that you recover as quickly as possible.
For a moment I thought you had managed to avoid the Kin-strife, Gondor's canon civil war. Then you managed to have one that was multiple times worse...
So in the books the Eothed were the guys whos settled in Rohan, they saved the Gondorians from defeat in a battle and the king was so impressed he gifted all of northern Gondor to the Eothed becoming Rohan. However, in this game they just invaded you.
I just watched your last imperator rome video again where you said youd keep the game alive. I was like "hes never going to play this again lmao" Yet here we are thanks Alex
5:06 "It's that Rohan?" No, thats Rhovanion people that were reason to Kin-strife (downfall of Gondor) and almost get wiped by plague. Rhovanion is Sindarin meaning "wilderland" while Rohirrim means "People of the Horse-lords". But in this age Rohan is actually Éothéod ("horse-land") located north of Lorien. Yes, I take my LotR knowledge very seriously thnaky very much sir!
This is correct, but Eotheod is, technically, also the southwesternmost part of Rhovanion, so he's not wrong geographically. Rhovannion shouldn't really be a faction, because its a geographic area that contains... more or less everything between the Misty Mountains and Rhun east-west, and the Blue Mountains and Ered Lithui (the mountain range along the north of Mordor) north-south. The southwest border is along the Anduin, the Emyn Muil (these are the hills containing the Falls of Rauros, the waterfall Boromir's body is sent over) and Dagorlad. Eotheod, being to the northeast of that line, is in Rhovanion.
@@mdt105 this is true for geographical, but game looks using rhovanion as tribes of People also. Also rhovanion are more kin to gondorians in the end than rohirim.
@@mdt105 Hey thanks both for the love, we have events set up so Eotheod can become Rohan by assisting Gondor in time of need. Rhovanion will get some more love eventually too, though there was a Kingdom of Rhovanion too, we just need to create some smaller petty kingdoms and such also
Hey Alex, it's me, ya boi, Maddhatter the RamFam...loved this video like I love them all...so funny! I subscribe so keep em.coming and I will watch them.
Imagine not using the "Icons for 1.2 + UI fixes [Deprecated]" mod This post was made by the "holy shit Alex it's the second most popular mod I'm kinda disappointed (JK) but also very great video and I'm glad that you made a video on Imperator: Rome as it's one of my favorite games and the Cicero 1.2 Beta Update has only made the game better."
So if half your council and every one of your armies rebels, doesn't that mean you lose by default? I mean, a proper civil war requires both sides to be able to fight, right?
