Successor Wars / Diadochi - Antigonid Dynasty campaign #1 - To rule the world, one must rule itself

[@Pontifexum]

You did much better than I in my testing of the mod 😂I wanted public order to slow down the player but maybe it's too much tbh..I could combat this by putting some pre-built temples in the starting position for some of the provinces, among other small things. What're your thoughts??

Well, I gotta say, it was quite a challenge to bring everything in order, but I very much enjoyed it ! Every little small scale skirmish against rebels had more weight and overall made every decision more important. It could have easily gone the other way and I could have lost a few seatlements, but it didn`t. I honestly enjoyed this part of the campaign a lot, we all know that the best parts of campaigns are the initial struggle/challenges. Steamrolling gets boring quite fast, at least for me. If you ask me, you should keep things the same on "hard" difficulty, but maybe give the regions some bonus public order due to "difficulty" ? I know thats something that can be done right ? In some mods when I check the public order tab, there are "+x / -x public order due to difficulty" so it can be done right ? I would go with that rather than adding temples in the regions. Let the player decide what road he/she wants to take :D.

@@SwordOfRom3 I believe you're right that I can adjust according to the difficulty. I also appreciate the thorough response! You're the first to test out the mod this in-depth as well as the first to make a video about it which means a lot. Looking forward to the rest of the series, now that public order is stabilized time for Demetrius Poliorcetes to go to work 😎

alright, word of warning; Antigonids start in a somewhat weak position. The best option is to take out the Achaean League early, then Epirus so that way the greek mainland is secured by you. After that I would wait out to see which Thracian group wins up north, then ally them so they can form a buffer state so you can focus on Aetolia and the Seleucids. If one of the Thracians decide to be less diplomatic, I'd take out one and then if the rest are less than friendly, just choose which one you want to vassalize (I'd go for Odryssians for historical reasons).
