Thanks in advance for doing a post of the state of the world, as I don't truly understand right now what what land is under Iulius proper, who are his vassals and how is the situation in the barbaric realms.
Btw, Are you using Elective Galvenkind or what succesion law?
I'm currently on full Elective, as I don't like Gavelkind much, nor do I consider it realistic for the story ("You shall be my successor Iulius!" Then croaks and dim witted Hadrianus gets half off the lands). But that might change as I get more vassals. Or a bigger title
Thanks for the explanation, it was because for a second I thought that Iulius brothers had some land that I misunderstud what succesion law you where using. I prefer Elective over Primogeniture, at least in smaller realms so that I can elect which son is the good one, but in bigger realms one founds the problem that other people may inherit as well.
Subbed.. I absolutely love your writing skills. They are simply amazing !
Curious, For each chapter how many years do you generally go before stopping and then wrting up the chapter ?. I am curious because i am hoping this summer to start my own AAR and i cant seem to figure out how many years i should go and then write a chapter.. ( I am very tempted to do it how you do it because wow you have a way with words ! )
But I'm curious, how did you manage to get out from under the Karlings and to the Eastern Romans?
Also, I wonder why Iulius has not married yet. Is he just too devoted to his military exploits for a wife, or is there another reason...
Do you pretend to extend the Roman/Hellenic pantheon through the Empire?
Well one way to deal with rebellious vassals: park themselves in a separate kingdom to take care of later as needed
