Oh the horror, Johan pretending to be the emperor... We all know that StarNaN is the one and only real emperor...
Bit disappointing no vicky 3 announcement but this does look good, when will the dev diaries start?
Long live Persian Empire !!!!! omg i cant w8 to pillage Rome ! conquer the known world and truly be king of kings !
But you have connection to the romans. Every culture is connected. For an example (not romans but greeks) the school Khosrau of Persia built was inspired by the Museion in Alexandria, and in turn influenced the rise of arabic learning. Everything is connected. Though the roman empire the greek philosophical legacy was kept alive and spread.
Roman trade on the red sea is what allowed the arabic cities where the arabic culture and the religion of islam were born to flourish. Roman neglect and their wars with Persia is why the arab conquest could happen (many cities in the region were pretty much open to join anyone who wasn't roman or Persian).
The Byzantine-Sassanid wars were in fact a major reason for the rise of the Arabs, as the wars totally exhausted both sides. But, the wars are frankly outside the era depicted in the game.
Repeating and exceeding the achievements of Ashoka is exciting, IMO.

How long will it keep being that for? There are only 5 work days a week.
I know that the game hasn´t been released yet; but while seeing a video from LegendofTotalWar I got and idea. Is about the province capture system; LTW (LegendofTotalWar) discusses the topic if wheter it would be inclined to HOI4 or EU4. I think it would be a good improvement for the series to make a mix between both; this being that if you move an army to a "default" province (a province that has no city like Rome, Capaua, Pompeii or of importatn value) u will instatnly take it (HOI4 style) unless the province has a border frontier or a castra in wich case a siege would start. But if u surround this province meaning taking all others that are adjacent to it the siege will go faster (Example: if i want to take rome and i take all of the province that are sorrunding it the sige will go to my favour). Another thing is that u have the choice to decide what to do in the siege. If u have catapults being able to bombard either the walls or city. By chossing walls u would get a 10% chance of destroing them in the first week, and it would go up each each week by 5% or less depending of how many siege engines and the abilitys of your general are; also u can have an event like u destroyed a tower so less of your soldiers die if u decied to assault the garrison. But if u chosee city you have diferent outcomes 10% destroying granaries so food decreses, 10% port if is costal so less food can be fished from the sea meaning less food income and less trade, 10% the palace or prison so a slave uprising can start and some garrison units die or the slaves take the city and a rebel faction starts, 10% barrack so less weapons are abailable also garrison decreases. Also you could make the catapults throw rotten corpses an a diseas starts in the city and u can have 5% of destroyng the apothecarry so it becomes deadlier. Other thing is that u can have spies infiltrate the city so they can poison the wells, counter fit money, beging an uprising and other things. It would be nice to see what u gus come up too. I have other ideas if you want to know them just write me back I would be glad to help in all I can.
I hope the game supports Latin. Would be awesome to have the menu and all texts in latin or ancient greece.
I also hope the AI is able to establish huge empires. Looking on the map most countries start small. Would be hard for an AI country to establish hegemony over his neighbors and grow to a vadt empire. I don’t want to be the uncontested ruler of the ancient world after 100 years.
