I wonder to where 'first consul' can be connected
Obviously to Napoleon
Yet in view of incoming Rome ... it might be - Roman ?

 

[crazy canuck]

Yes, this sounds good.

But "esse delendam" definitely means "has to be destroyed", not "should be destroyed".

Good old Cato didn't mess around with subjunctives.

Boys, we are worrying about correctly quoting and (given some english errors made from time to time) properly translating, our God of Rock and Roll not some long dead Latin speaker.

The First Consul thingie refers to EU III: NA. I asked Johan the same question.

 

[Swamp Rat]

Hence the location "Haunting Saint Helena"

Together it makes sense

Only one change since I went away? Very well, it's added. BTW folks, the semantics of latin expressions could perhaps be done somewhere else, so I have an easier time finding the posts which actually contribute to the thread's purpose?

 

[Basileios I]

I still hope it will be possible to script historical events yourself, even if they're not included out of the box.

 

[ZmajOgnjeniVuk]

On expanding the map:

Won't happen.

 

[ZmajOgnjeniVuk]

On trading system:

Won't be any CoT's in Rome. Was none in CK, Victoria or HoI either.

 

[Davisx3m]

Johan on historical events

 

[Swamp Rat]

On trading system:

CoT's??

What does that stand for?

 

[Gothmog]

CoT's??

What does that stand for?

Centre of Trade.

 

[Swamp Rat]

Centre of Trade.

Oh right... has been to long since ive played EUII. Thx.

 

[hildoceras]

Hmm. Have you made any changes to the EU3 technology system at all?

Techsystem is completely unique for Rome

The "indirect" control of non-capital provinces sounds very very interesting.
I really hope the characters kind of interact with each other. What fun could it be to balance the number of provinces controlled by noble family A with the one gouverned by family B in order to avoid A taking over the power in the state. Could give rebellions a total new depth.

Well...

You will only get to select options for events for your current ruler and his children.

Which in a republic where you elect new consuls every 2 years can be pretty interesting

Like that incompetent buffoon got rich of his governorship in Narbonensis, and now spent alot of cash to boost his popularity with bread and games. And you end up with him as consul..

6 Unit types surely not.... a single Legion has more than 6 units types!!!!

Surely there will be unique national units????????

Heh.. im sure that is to give room for both Phlanxes, Legionares and THIS IS SPARTA!!! AAARGH!!!

Hey, it has been popularised

 

[Nikolai]

Updated again with the new answers from the latest dev update.

My question is whether this counts as a game-losing annexation (i.e. Mongols annexing you in CK) or whether it is more akin to Victoria: Revolutions wherein Communist (or Fascist, or Reactionary, or Anarcho-liberal, etc.) overthrow your government, rewrite the constitution, put a new party into power, but your country still exists and you get to keep playing?​

kinda like victoria.

I see we got the standard Paradox rebel unit here.

Will major civil wars be handled any different from previous games? After all they're a pretty major part of the Late Republic (and also the failing Successor states)

There won't be much fun in going against Pompey as Caesar if the opponents are just "rebels". Even worse it would not be possible to chose which side to play as

civil wars will be handled entirely different in rome

there's no babylon in rome.
