Sparta does look bad but they're very good. Most of that is due to location, though. There are a ton of cities in Greece that you can sack to fund a huge mercenary army which lets you rush your way through any empire. It's not very roleplay for Sparta to use mercenaries, but I managed to take Pella not by 480 like the achievement wants, but by 460

Important thing about commanders, armies get a +1 to dice rolls for every two martial more the commander has compared to the enemy. So, in your last fight at the end of the video, the enemy commander had 5 martial while you had 12. That's a +3 to all your dice rolls, which combined with your counter his units lead to bloodbath.

One thing to keep in mind in this game is the AI is not very good at moving troops around with ships in my experience. Its very easy to win a war with Egypt for the greek lands they and their subjects hold by you just sitting on the ticking warscore and baiting their fleet so they can never pick up troops

Dude I just saw your Israel episode, just came here to comment hoping you'll notice: You're soooooooooooooooo good at this game, and that is why I find it SO fascinating to watch you play! I learn alot from watching you, and you open up this game in ways I thought weren't possible. I was blown away by the strange strategy of stacking fort defence, never thought it would have any significant use but you STOMPED Egypt on the first war with attrition and fort defence stacking and it was sooooo fascinating! Love your Imperator videos, will watch many many more. Could you put a little bit more explanation into your videos, explaining why you do what you do and showing the results of X-actions, just super quickly in a glance? It helps alot in learning! Like....How'd you get the research up to 100% so quickly as Judas, then 125%. Why citizens instead of Nobles for research, when nobles give 3x the yield (or am I wrong?) What does 1,2,3 attrition mean? You had stacked up to 9, what does it mean precisely? Thanks man!

I will try to explain my process more in the future. When it comes to citizens over nobles it's really just a preference thing. Nobles are best if you are trying to get as much research as possible, but citizens are a good middle ground to get some research and some manpower. As I was small and didn't have much cities, it would take up too much building slots and money to, for instance, build academies and forums in my capital to maximize research and manpower respectively. So in order to get the best of both worlds I focused on building court of laws to get more citizens. As for attrition, I'm not an expert on it and it's actually a little complicated so I will try to simplify it as much as possible. It seems attrition itself only effects how much food an army consumes with each point of attrition increasing the armies food consumption by 10%. e.g.(+1,+2 +3 attrition; 10%, 20%, 30% consumption respectively). After an army runs out of food, only then will it start to lose men from attrition with how many men being lost per monthly tick determined by the type of cohort (the heavier the cohort the more it will lose). So to conclude, attrition doesn't determine how much will die but how quickly an army runs out of food.

In the Messenia war, you thought you couldn't peace out bc the game was showing the x iso the checkmark on the peace deal screen. However, a fully occupied nation cannot refuse a deal regardless of what the GUI shows (display bug I guess). So pressing the Ok button would have ended the war and let you take all their land. You can use this strategy to peace out one enemy ally at a time and take them out of the war. It's especially easy when the their allies only have one territory. When you have at least 20 territories, you can then make feudatories, very useful to do with nations that only have one territory that wouldn't have given you much income. But they each have a 2k stack and will only export to you. So having a few feudatories increases your power by quite a bit and they don't occupy a diplo slot. Anyway, it was entertaining and I hope you'll get to actually fight Rome.

I don't know why I didn't expect Sparta to have a strong military. When playing this game I always felt it was better to have quantity over quality and tbf, that usually works better, but of course Sparta is the exception to that rule. I also really like the tall missions in their tree, Sparta needs some kind of economic modifiers to carry it do to it's small size.

Virtual limes in general makes the AI follow more historical borders and it's even stricter on the Romans but it doesn't really slow down their rate of conquest. In fact I think it makes them even scarier because now they will actually grow in a relatively historically accurate way, so if you are playing in Greece, southern Gaul or even eastern Iberia the Romans are more likely to show up compared to vanilla.

Marcus aurelius said that to make onself happy we need to compleate tasks. Happines does not come from nothing. Also there is a part of the brain the bigger = more resistance to sucide, and to train this part of the brain the test subjects did stuff that they did not want to do but was important. The only bad thing with imperator is the difficulty in porting it to crusaider kings, republics dont work and the culture gets wacked....
