The Median Comeback | Imperator: Rome (Atropatene)

[@Aerozona23]

it's nice to see someone play atropatene.. i scripted the mission tree 🙏

[@KingAlton9403]

You did so well, I love the heavy focus on development as a tall player.

[@skepticalbaby7300]

Great job on the mission tree. It is a great mix of conquest and development. It also provides good rewards for a very difficult start. I would like to see more like that for the difficult starts.

Single handedly bringing back Imperator Rome on the youtube scene. Do you perchance know if the Kingdom of Rome has any content and how is it formed? Might be fuj to Lose to Etruria and make a comeback as the Kingdom xD

[@KingAlton9403]

I wouldn't say single handedly but thanks anyway. I am not sure if there is a special mission tree for the Roman kingdom but I will look into it.

[@Theta-411]

Hell yeah! Always happy to see more Imperator Rome content from you man 😼👍

Median empire is one of the most under-rated empires that existed great vid

Control range is the distance you can take and control territory from the nearest territory you own. More useful for grabbing coastal territories in the Mediterranean or Black Sea. Edit: "nearest territory" to where you _want_ to capture. I'm actually not sure if it's the territory itself, or the closest provincial capital. So, grabbing Cyprus _should_ put you in control range of Northern Egypt if playing Rhodes or whatever. Taking Northern Egypt then essentially puts the majority of Egypt in control range, but not southern Egypt or Nubia.

Nice job navigating the mission tree! Atro is my favorite to play because of forming Persia. It's a difficult start but rewarding.

[@association3cm675]

To entice governors, inspire disloyalty at the last moment, that way you don't have to care about if they were bribed.

[@cameronturnmire1145]

I noticed you played Judea which has an awesome mission tree but you should try Samaria which has a different outcome

[@KingAlton9403]

Yeah, unfortunately the Judea save broke so I couldn't continue it but playing as Samaria is a good excuse to go back to that region.

[@carlesmeseguer8089]

The control range is the diplomatic range you will recive, been a major power gives you quite a lot, but with tec you can try to ally other faraway nations (also helps with getting more oportunities for getting faraway producs)

[@rift8966]

Diplo range is not the same as control range. Control range is how far from your nearest province you can take and control territories. Diplo range affects how far away you can enter diplomacy. There's also naval range where your ships start suffering attrition if you go beyond it.

@@rift8966 Thanks, didnt know that first

[@lohgock555]

I searched everywhere to see if someone else than me didn't get the claims from the mission, I played atropatene myself and didn't get them either...maybe a coding error, in the message that follows, it only states the bonusses you receive, but not the claims. NIce that i could reproduce it and see it anywhere else. anyway, you have a nice entertaining style, very nice video :D

[@troykanotz626]

Can you do an Assyria or Babylon video? Maybe Phoenicia or non-Ptolemaic Egypt? Or Athens, Sparta, or Macedon?

[@KingAlton9403]

All in due time.

[@TheDutchGeneral]

22:48 - 22:52 I can imagine this in a "out of context" video one day. Edit: a fun idea

[@xk1390]

You cannot really abuse the entice gov option bc it can only be used every 10 years. Same with offer citizenship option, which is something I like to use to bring a skilled guy to my country when my family is low on males, since the one you bring is adopted in your family. Also, you should recruit a woman that has a good bloodline (for your primary heir to marry). E.g. Armenians have cav bonus and fort maint reduction IIRC. Sometimes, I even anoint the grandson iso of the prim heir if he has better stats, esp considering he'll be a lot younger when ascending to throne.

[@KingAlton9403]

Oh okay, that's good that it can only be used every 10 years plus I guess you can't really abuse it and use it constantly because it does take a lot of aggressive expansion.

[@xk1390]

@@KingAlton9403 For you it generates even less AE than normal, maybe bc of a mission bonus or innovation.

[@KingAlton9403]

Yeah, but it was only a temporary bonus.

[@Majesticmoji]

"If I had known that i wouldnt have taken it" buddy it says it in the tooltip 😂

[@wongjunkit6205]

Entice Governer has been a thing in vanilla Imperator for ages. Also Imperator "Rome" but no Rome ironic

[@KingAlton9403]

Now that I think about it, I do remember using it a lot before, but then I took a long break from imperator so I guess I just forgot about that feature. Also yeah, Rome has gotten soft lately in my campaigns.
