    Rome in DEI was the most authentic gameplay ive ever had. The Punic wars raged on for over 100 turns for me. With pirates and Romes crappy Navy made it hard to invade carthage. It was so much fun.

    Same. I resorted to crossing the Alps and occupying Carthaginian territories in Hispania, before pincering Carthage itself from Numidia and Sicily. In the vanilla game, you could take Carthage after a few breeze battles, making it a hollow victory.

    Cool breakdown. On a related note, when I was fighting Rome as Massalia in DEI = basically you got to outnumber the legions and take them piecemeal. Massalian Thorax-type sword infantry *can* fight Rome Principes, Prima Corhors or even Legionaires head on same with Massalian elite hoplites... but I was heavily reliant on Cavalry to slam into their backs and also on my Peltasts to wipe a flank and pile in.

    Thanks mate, yes your definitely right! Although I'd probably prefer to use hoplites more than swords against Rome as they will last a super long time in phalanx, then hit them with as much cav or shock infantry as you can. You have some helpful axemen in Northern Italy too that you can recruit.

    Those ship towers are excellent in landing operations since they have endless ammo and they shoot while they are on the beach, so you can stay near them to benefit from that, or sail near the enemy troops on shore to let them do some killing. Just be careful also while being near them as they can shoot your troops in the back, so position yourself correctly.

    I'm on my first playthrough of DEI after completing some 8 campaigns as Rome before and I had to restart it about turn 6 at the latest 5 times because Epirus and Etruscia absolutely dogged me on normal difficulty (my lack of knowledge about the new units didn't help) I'm now on my 7th run and finally got my fitting only because I managed to broker peace with Epirus 1st turn and all the other families didn't hate me at the start and massive civil unrest from the get go. And the fact that armies are now decreasing public order instead of increasing it is also quite the change. Been playing with a pops mod before tho so that wasn't difficult to adjust to lol

    Can be a bit daunting at first but once you play a few campaigns you'll get the hang of it mate. I recommend you take on the Etruscans within the first 4 turns. March your army north as you recruit more heavy infantry, you'll outclass them easily :)

    For me, I took both the starting legions, decked them out and took Taras quickly, and peaced out with Epirus. Then I focused on the Etruscans. Once they were gone I took Cisalpina, and by then the war with Carthage began. The whole time I was focusing on peace treaties with the greek world. Of course I lost that campaign due to pirates taking Asculum and magically spawning a 15 stack there instantly. (I wish DEI at least didn't have shit like that, but it's better than vanilla still). I'm honestly not sure what to do about the pirates, I was barely scraping by with the legions I did have against Carthage, and didn't have nearly enough money for a fleet to defend against the pirates, so I'm at a bit of an impasse for now. It wouldn't be much of a problem if they just sacked the towns like normal pirates, but occupying it and spawning a new faction with a nearly full high quality army is just fucking stupid.

    @@stunseed8385 thanks for the tip to it comes a bit late lol. Ive completed 2 DEI campaigns since and am on my 3rd by now. If you're wondering, I've added some submods every run to fit it to my preferences. I got rid of the army garrison debuff by now and got a mod that allows for much more Armies so I can have generals with small Armies (less than 5 units usually) as province governors. The generals are built for administration and improving cultural convertion while I have only 2 actual Armies, my consular Armies at any given time where the generals are skilled for combat buffs. That way I can actually use the multitudes of family members I have by the midgame while keeping the other parties happy by sending them on diplomatic missions over and over. I also went with a 2 turns per year mod while changing the reform requirements to get more historically accurate units for the given time period. Just hit my polybian reforms at turn 100. Marian's are gonna be around 100BC now and Imperials around 20BC. I also figured out how to postpone war with Carthage so I don't get dunked on from 3 sides and can have a more methodical playthrough. Just stay at war with Syracuse but never fight them. Carthage wipes them out and the script doesn't trigger until like turn 50 or so. Many of the other factions have hit their reforms long before me so they stand a much better chance against me without the cheat buffs the AI gets on higher dif. I managed to win my first Punic War without wiping Carthage out and only taking Sicilia and Corsica/Sardinia by only defeating their Armies and sacking their cities. Now I'm in my Second Punic War, taken Africa Province, gotten the Numidians to break their Vassalage and make piece with me while I have 1 consular army march into Spain and finish Carthage off this time.

    I know Rorarii are weak but even weak units can hold a front line in DEI. I personally use the Rorarii in my front line and have stronger spears fill in gaps and assist while my Principes out flank the enemy. I mostly do this because 3rd class citizens are easier to replace and unit upkeep is lower. This is really good for early to mid game. My biggest complaint about Rorarii is after the Polybian "upgrade." Before the reform Rorarii were the cheapest unit that could form a square, which is useful for holding a front line. After the reform they have the exact same stats and no ability to form square, not sure why this was a design choice.

    Ok, Primus Inter Pares means literally "the first (or better "the major one") between the two equals". The equals were the two consuls, the political guides of Republican Rome. It was a late republic / early principate era definition for what we call today "emperor". In all effect, when Octavian became emperor, he was officially proclamated Primus Inter Pares because the roman world wasn't ready to accept monarchy like in its ancient past (before the Tarquinii were driven out of the city) or in the near East, like at the hellenistic and Parthian courts.

    The Antesignani I think are quite underrated in the campaign with their ranged alpha damage + spears with bonus damage vs cav. As long as they're deployed with a throwaway unit to take charges and missiles for them (any regional levy unit is fine), they are great as counters to everything the Legionaries are weak against.

    Finally rome :) If I may abuse this for a question. Do you have any clue how to remove the trait "disdained faction leader" ? Parthia starts with it e.g. and it just sucks a lot. Would be worth it to just kill off your faction leader because he has it. Furthermore i read everywhere that your faction leader gives bonuses when in the capital. However, i don't observe anything at all, is this juts outdated info on all the websites?

    For the first question, just have to kill your leader sadly. For the second question, there is bonuses but some are more discrete. Like it’ll help your population improve. I believe you also have to have your leader be a general in order to get their personal trait bonuses to take affect. You can then also select trait cards to focus on administrator stuff

    Actually war dogs can be devastating, I almost always use a full dog stack, they can decimate many types of low armour armies, use them like torpedoes. The kicker is that using it as support army, after you launch the dogs, just keep the handlers back and run them out of the battle so you won't take any casualties. Sometimes if caught alone with dog army, launch the dogs and run away, next fight you have all your dogs again, while enemy lost units.

    To be honest staying as a Republic is probably the best bet. Usually you want to change your government within the first 20 turns so you still have the civil war protection on. Later down the road the Romans always have civil wars so if you time it wrong, changing your government later down the road as Rome isn't really worth the civil unrest imo.

    BTW the Hastati aren’t meant to be good. DEI focuses a lot on historical accuracy and the Hastati were mostly recruits who went i to battle first to break or at least tire out the enemy. Rome utilized 3 lines of different units with each line further back being more experienced. So if the enemy did manage to break through the front line, they’d have to break through a second tougher (and fresh) second line, and then the most experienced (and fresh) 3rd line. Rome rarely ever deployed the third like though and it was seen as a desperate act to use them, most famously they were used mostly against Pyrrus and Carthage during the Republic’s early wars in Southern Italy. DEI wants you to likewise use the Tripex strategy to fight as Rome, which is why so many units are at different levels of “stats” meant to represent a sort of artificial experience outside of the experience mechanic.

    Indeed you are correct. I mainly complain about them in terms of just meta and gameplay :P I almost always have people in the comments of videos with them swearing they are fantastic, but in terms of pure game play it makes no sense at all to recruit them over Principes. Playing immersively of course recruiting them is fun and makes sense though :)

    Am I the only one finding this a little too much? I've re-run this campaign 7 times ( Hard or Normal Difficulty ) because everytime, with different approaches and strategies I'm pretty much completely outmatched by the time the 1st Punic War kicks in. Even if I'm not outmatched and I'm actually pretty solid, I'm VERY far from making any advances into Sicily/Carthage. I could thoretically build up very slowly but where's the fun in building a good 3-4 armies in the span of 50 turns all the while carthage is raiding your ports. With all of that in mind other factions constantly threaten to invade, forcing you to actually pay attention to all of these turns not just turning your brain off for 50 turns until you're ready. Even if a plan succeeds then the real pain starts, replunishment. Even with a realistic approach ( Gathering a force of about 6-7k men in the span of 10-15 turns and then attacking a major settlement ) the AI doesn't care, by the time you start healing doom stacks start coming your way ( 3 - 5 turns away usually cause I place a Spy in Africa to keep tabs ) . Oh and don't let me mention the raging population being mad for no reason at all meanwhile I'm spending a fortune on public order buildings and wasting warfare researches that would aid my war efforts to keep a lid on them through public order researches and the random slave revolts cause I could go on all day. Any tips? 😂😂😂( I have 1.6k hrs in Rome 2 it's not like I'm a baffled new player )
