    It looked like Rome only suffered marginally in the Antonine Plague but the Cyprian Plague really shattered the Empire. Interesting that Rome never went Hellenic but stuck with Italic for the longest time but I'm assuming converter shenanigans led to Eu4 interpreting it at Hellenic.

    Really funny how the Baikal Empire, while being named after the lake, has the least amount of access to it, lmao.
    Also very fond that this timeline looks even more alien than usual. The EU4 part alone is insane: Sapmi dominating the Norse instead of other way around, Slavics not existing, Celts and Greeks living so far east, two Roman Empires but not the way it was IRL, Greater Armenia coming back, North of Eurasia being divided between an Uralic and Hunnic states (with the first being #1 world power no less), Hakassia being a major player, Angevine Empire kinda being a thing in a way, Nepali domination of North India, Berbers in Australia and both Americas, speaking of which: Native-dominated North America (based), Christianity being merely a footnote in history. One of those timelines that would make for a highly interesting history book.

    • @GeneralPol

      Thats the joy of mega campaigns, I kinda crippled Christianity by converting to CK3 in 280 (had to Imperator kept crashing)

  • @hunkulous1462
    @hunkulous1462 13 วันที่ผ่านมา +8

    I’m very glad you used my mod BetterBlobs. It seems to work decently well for Imperator!
    I have an EU4 version of BetterBlobs which is the *most* complete and polished, and I am working on a CK3 Version of BetterBlobs (I think that has the most eloquent changes personally to increase historicity) that is vanilla friendly and Fallen Eagle Compatible. Then I’ll go back in Imperator Rome and mostly just tweak some UI and localization. …While my Imperator BetterBlobs submod works as intended perfectly fine for timelapses I realized there was some improperly localized events 😬 (going to fix that ASAP)
    After the most recent update I run Imperator Rome timelapses until 361 Ad November 17 (earliest Fallen Eagle CK3 start) but a couple months ago there was a crash due to my mod in late 200s AD It has been fixed, but I also want to make the game end on 361 AD so you don’t have to press pause manually before converting to the next game (I’ve been doing that with my CK3 and eu4 mods) (although the defines of I.R. are slightly different so I’ll have to investigate that)
    I’m glad I think my AI border fort abuse-curbing worked as I had finals in real life and was pretty sure it worked and did minor testing, but looking at the borders of Rome and other powers aligning with areas that aren’t ‘tribal’ while also being ‘frigid’ or ‘arid’, it seems like it worked. (Unless your other mods affected that more so)
    I think keeping tribes in tact is the most important thing for megacampaigns, and in vanilla IR, CK3, and Eu4 tribes are almost always either vanquished or on par with the major settled powers in terms of centralization or technology; so I’ve been focusing on reworking tribes (while giving them the unique ability to conquer ‘tribal’ lands unrestricted) but I want everything to be dynamic and mod compatible.
    Thanks! & I’ve been watching your channel for a bit now, great job with the organization of everything, I love it.

    • @GeneralPol
      @GeneralPol  11 วันที่ผ่านมา +4

      Its a great mod, will have to check out the other versions. If you could stop Imperator at 361 that would be amazing. It takes a while to record it, and I have to time it so that i'm around to stop the game at the proper time, which can be a real pain!

      @@GeneralPol Thank you, I really appreciate it.
      I've currently been working on my Crusader Kings III BetterBlobs mod, (it's not done/published yet)-- but for now I changed the campaign ending date of I.R. to the earliest bookmark in the Fallen Eagle CKIII mod -- 361 November 17 AD -- (This change should be compatible/work with any mod: Timeline Extender, Invictus, TE : Crisis of the 3rd century, ect. unless the mod creator *really* wanted the game to end at a specific date) -in my I.R. TE : Crisis of the third century BetterBlobs Submod.

    This was a great one!! The Imperator > CK3 > EU4 period works amazingly.
    Vic 3 was fun but the important stuff that happens doesn't always translate well to a map. Maybe running it with GDP per province map mode would give a better sense of who is industrialising the hardest. (If the AI could do it well).

    - Carthage dies in 45 seconds
    - Rome straight up dies after conquering half the world
    CK3
    Eastern Roman Empire/Western Roman Empire not having any Italian territory and being based in Africa (I guess in this timeline, Cleopatra really was black)
    Britannia breaking into Europe
    British Holy Roman Empire
    Mongol Big Bois
    RIP Christian Empires
    CK3 games tend to build up one Court Language, so this time it's Latin
    EU IV
    - OR & OB
    - Greece forming far away from Greece
    - Revolutionary OR & OB (So Muslim Communist Russians) aka How to Scare Americans in Three Words
    - Western Afro-Roman Brazil, Canada, Australia, and Alaska
    - United States froms from New Wales
    - Imagine working for two whole games to get your religion as the most popular religion in the world and then in EU IV, it becomes mixed up with your much smaller rival.
    - The North American Continent is a bastion of Republican ideals (the government type, not the party)
    - I rooted for teh Continental Celtics. Go Gauls, down with the Franks!
    HOI IV
    - Oregon invades Canada
    - The Communist Pizzamen rule Europe and most of Australia
    - The PRC carried somehow

      The biggers mystery how democratic republic Or in the end of V3 became fascist and in Axis in HOI4. I'd understand if communist, they are expected there. Democratic alliance - ok. By why fascist? And there is no conflict with Italy since half of the world is fascist already.
      And China just went to sleep in HOI after the first war and forgot to participate the world war. Sad, they had potential.
