Forming ROME from WEST ROME is INSANE!

You can hear the whispers, I know you can. The whispers saying "Now restore the peak Roman borders".

We are sorry for this Laith. But we still want this. But we are still sorry

I need to see you continue this, now go fight the Sassanids and the Visigoths and restablish the true borders of The Roman Empire 😊

[@ivanergovic2634]

Doubt tht, mans done lol

[@Aluunyax3]

Agree, more rome

[@KurtisK94]

We need this

[@Necromediancer]

This man is genuinely suffering and you want more

[@ShiningLight]

oh yes, the countless wars waged by the Roman Empire against the Roman Empire to form the Roman Empire.

[@50mt]

Historically accurate, to be fair

[@Vanvidum]

Damn Romans, they ruined the Roman Empire!

[@reconscout2238]

Western roman empire against the eastern one to form continental roman empire.

[@ZygardeHM]

We need MORE EXTENDED TIMELINE CONTENT

[@YoImOrbit]

This. So many new scenarios

[@trolpaolo4260]

UR ABSOLUTELY RIGHT

[@kornel72]

Cant wait for him to see this. I can imagine his scream.

[@tonethymcbuttox5830]

this is absolutely and objectively true.

[@RetconCrisis]

@@boot-4704 Yep, 1066 is in the mod. The mod has every year from 2 AD to the modern day (2022)

[@mysteryfonzie]

If I remember correctly, troops that early in the game deal almost no damage aside from cavalry...So you can almost just go 100% calv decimate everybody. *thats assuming if infantry gets a shock pip by around 600+ year*

[@1stNickname]

That's probably why the age objective is to get a ton of cavalery or the age after.

[@comb-t]

Congrats Laith, you are free from the pain. There really should be some sort of warscore modifier vs the Byzantines for uniting rome lmao, realistically wouldnt have taken 100 years of constant warfare to reunite the two romes, but hey. Was a good series, I hope you do some more extended timeline scenarios - though probably for your own sanity less painful ones, but that is kind of your brand of EU4 play.

[@sneedchuckington]

Yeah at some point they would get the message that they're under the Western Emperor now. It didn't take Aurelian a century of fighting the bring the Gallic and Palmyrene empires back into the fold.

[@macizogalaico]

@@sneedchuckington Romans would absolutely fight for a hundred years before saying "well i guess THEY are the true successors of rome..."

[@kabobawsome]

There should be a Western Rome mission tree that ends with a Personal Union CB on the Byzantines. Then once you get them loyal enough, another mission to inherit them and form Rome, bypassing the decision. This makes the most sense both historically and balance wise. I wouldn't go for a standard Restoration of Union CB either, instead giving a special CB that also gives them the opportunity to PU you if you lose hard enough (which, again, would have made sense historically).

[@sneedchuckington]

@@kabobawsome absolutely. The whole point here is that you, at least at this time, are not actually different states. It's more of a civil war and it makes sense that it's winner-take-all.

[@XiaoYueMao]

@@macizogalaico West Rome is LEGIT rome, end of, unlike Byzantium west rome is the literal continuation of the roman empire. Byzantium split off into a seperate empire in order to preserve rome as west rome was falling, realistically if west rome came back and reconquered itself and rome, a couple wars against byzantium is all it really would take for majority of byzantine nobles realize that Byzantium can no longer claim to be the continuation of rome

[@alexbattaglia8297]

You should totally continue this campaign by re-taking all Roman land

[@namonator7144]

I’ve loved the series so far but you can’t stop here, restore Rome to its historical borders and keep going till you set up Roman colonies in the new world

[@amtep]

Yeah when West Rome and East Rome are fighting each other, occupied provinces should flip. Maybe a "Unify Rome" CB like Unify China on the other end of the continent

[@xylixiian]

Best series on this channel by far, so glad to see it’s continuing!

[@mikab631]

That's right, I comment great video to boost engagement five seconds after it goes public. I expect payment by post Jesus christ that was grueling. GG!

[@nicholasoneal1521]

FINISH THIS, CONQUER THE WORLD!

[@spectre4165]

Please do more West rome! I love to see Laith suffer

[@kevindejong01]

Putting so many painful hours into reforming Rome makes you an official romeaboo

[@Podzhagitel]

I’m glad no one told him that the AI can’t use their special invasion CB if they border one of your vassals and not you directly 😌 suffer

[@bonehead2426]

cant wait for laith to have to reconquer all roman provinces under trajan by popular demand

[@almgaming186]

Watching laith be in pain is very enjoyable

[@Masv1pe]

I fucking love your upload schedule Laith. Pls don’t ever touch grass and keep doing KZbin, you save my day.

[@yaboimosh]

Thank You thank you thank you, lets do more of this... IT CAME ROME Y'all. Take a day off laith.

[@henryroberts7297]

Such a good... start. Rome remains fragmented. Abandon sanity. Reclaim the empire!

[@DekuTheDestroyer]

Alternate title: Laith going insane

[@Donerci_Pikacu_Usta]

Thanks for the video! I really needed to see your pain for the name changing from Western Rome to Rome. And your pain finaly coming to and end. You fulfilled the dream. You formed Rome out of a 3 or 4 province minor. I hope you find happiness for rest of your life.

[@stopmotioncreatorpro3373]

It doesn’t actually need to take that long. I allied the Byzantines day 1, so when the Ostrogoths declared war on me I took most of their land,along with their visigoth allie. Then I called Byzantium into my italian war, and destroyed them. Cleaned up France and Iberia, broke alliance with Byzantium. Declared war on them 3 time in total, took all their land and money. Then finished England and and North Africa

[@borgarskrede-holen967]

We need this as a World conquest

[@DoggoDutchman]

Now your north, west, south, east rome

[@CameronAB122]

More mods need to use the dynamic names feature. I know the reasoning behind not putting the government type in the tag name but imo Western Roman Empire/Roman Empire looks better than West Rome/Rome

[@RetconCrisis]

Visigoth PU was the biggest plot twist of the game

[@dylath2304]

Now restore peak Roman borders! 😈

[@masterkanalen8449]

MORE OF WEST ROME!!!

[@SereglothIV]

I can't be the only one triggered by the fact that he left Italian bits unconquered on the penninsula and that tiny brown thing in southern Hungary. "My Emperor, there's an Italian province right next to our glorious capital of Rome, should we conquer it?" "No!!! Attack Byzantium instead! Then truce break it! And truce break it! Amd truce break it again! That's all we gonna do for the next 100 years!!!"

[@jamescombe5031]

31:18 I love how the Rashiduns are an Archbishopric and Abu-Bakr was an Archbishop apparently...

[@aronaskengren5608]

Now restore the Roman borders!

[@SeraphBunniel]

Amazing the the Palaiologoi made appearance just in time for them to watch over their empire being taken over truly the most historically accurate game

[@mikinius]

You should do a tier list of "most painful playthroughs" some day

[@DD-nb9rn]

Now try and break the Roman Empire at its peak as the visigoths/alemanni/bulgarians/whatever tribe/horde

[@sizanogreen9900]

This warms my cold and bloodless sadistic heart:)

[@IronWolf123]

Welcome to another episode of "Laith goes mental trying to make more content for his KZbin channel", with your host Laith. Now if he stopped pulling his hair out, he'd introduce himself.

[@tigrecito48]

youd think theyd let you take more provinces in wars in this mod.. cos populations were lower.. lower dev etc.. if you think about it wars back then theyd take whole nations or half a nation in one war.. Alexander took 1/4 of the world in one war

[@emylily8266]

tbh this is just to limit snowballing, its never been about population density or whatever, throughout every time period theres been examples of countries swalling multiple others within a single conflict. (The reason why density doesnt matter is that the imperial core is also less dense, thus you have a smaller army to garrison your conquests)

[@m_uz1244]

Like the other guy said. In 1517 the Ottoman Empire annexed the entire Mamluk sultanate in one war. In EU4, that takes no less than 5 wars to do. Similarly, the Spanish conquered the Aztecs, Mayans, and Incas in single wars. The Ottomans annexed (partitioned) Hungary in one war.

[@mcalkis5771]

After this video I am convinced that Laith would rather shove nails up his eyes than play this campaign again. I would really want to see one more part though.

[@zachmoore6084]

Part Four: Laith’s Therapy Session

Well, if nothing else, this playthrough was basically "Why you should build forts: A tutorial"

[@allahc.c.487]

This is not a normal EU4 video, this is 45 minutes of suffer

[@aram9167]

Love how you formed Rome in 666 LMAO

[@samuelblackjack7752]

To 6:38 , if you fully annex a nation you take all their subjects except of personal unions! (I even tested it before I've sent this comment, lol)

[@DNVIC]

I remember there was a time where you did take the personal unions; a long time ago i remember if you annexed burgundy you got every pu partner as well

[@NicCageCDXX]

laith has become a true roman emperor, launching an extremely costly civil war strictly to be able to call himself the sole emperor or rome

Now world conquest

[@stranger0152]

3 years ago I played Byzantium in 500's and I took mecca and form Rashidun. I think you should do this cursed run as well. It is so much fun btw. I conquered whole Asia with that :D

[@AmariFukui]

Okay awesome i'm glad that i'm not the only one who experiences the EU4 brainmelt after several hours of play, I use ET a lot because I like having the leisure time to conquer whenever I feel like it rather than running down the clock.

[@orrorsaness5942]

This Is Amazing

[@greenacadian4197]

Ended in the year 666...that's foreboding

[@pimmpslap]

This actually looks fun compared to just never losing anything and conquering everything with ease like every other playthrough of EU4.

[@Cohor101]

Well, time to do this my friend. Take all the lands Rome had at the height of its power.

[@Pqndchannel]

Ah yes, the Ming in 600 ad.

[@michalhruska362]

Keep grinding brother, one does not simply annex the Byzantines :)

[@Joshieboy75]
