  • Diplomacy stays broken. Run is from 0:01 to 6:30.
    9 turns. 7 battles. 10 diplomats. 50 territories. And one dream. I spent way too many hours figuring this route out and grinding it, but it eventually paid off! It could be a little faster, but getting a complete run is a long shot so I'm not complaining.
    I'll eventually make a more descriptive guide, but the general strategy is executing my Scipii short campaign strategy to kill Carthage and Numidia (with a few improvements to make it way more consistent) and then spreading diplomats out across the map to "buy" territories. It requires a great deal of patience, planning, and luck, but the end result is a truly wild way to beat Rome: Total War in six and a half minutes. Hope you enjoy!

    This is just brilliant. I had always thought that the Scipii would be best for a "diplomacy cheese" speedrun, because they aren't hamstrung by other factions' contempt i.e. if you play as Julii, Gaul will never give you their territories no matter how much you offer, and likewise the Greeks will play hardball if you're the Brutii. Way to make it reality! I can only imagine the amount of research and testing that went into this!

    • @kevmeister4194
      @kevmeister4194  3 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      Thanks, really appreciate everything you’ve said! You’re right on the nose with the Julii (they can’t get ever get away with buying off all of Gaul), but I think the Brutii could potentially do alright as well! Greece is cheap and easy to buy despite hating Brutii and Scipii. I’m not sure exactly why that is.
      It took a lot of trial and error, but it was satisfying in that it almost feels like a culmination of many different short campaign strategies!

    (Means his troops have bonuses such as +4 attack bonus, therefore auto resolve rapes the ai)
    Before he agrees on diplomacy he uses a cheat “Force accept” meaning they will accept no matter what u offer. He gives them some money to fool the viewers that its actually working.
    This is a speed run but not on the hardest difficulty and he also cheats.
