Spartans Only Challenge!!! Rome Total War Let's Play #1

Ойындар

Welcome to the Start of my Unedited Sparta Campaign for Rome Total War, where I play as the Greek City States. This is a Challenge Let's Play where I am only allowed to use Spartans.
This is no Peasant Only challenge, Spartans are obvious much stronger. So where is the challenge.
A settlement must reach max population before it can train them, and Spartans are super expensive. Yes, my units are much stronger, however they will forever be in far fewer quantity.
Also, Money is a nightmare.
Rules:
- Have to Achieve the short victory objectives for the Greek City States.
- Only land units that can be trained is the Spartans.
Mods:
- Spartans Recruit anywhere and in one turn, as long as it has the correct building.
- Sparta itself starts with an Army Barracks.
- Generals are also Spartan Units. (Than you to Arazeth for that Mod).
In this episode, I organise my nation and begin some early expansion by attacking Athens.
Enjoy : )

    It's kinda funny how your general can't even lift it's phalanx because it overlaps with the rally ability. Thank for bringing up silly stuff like this in your challenges.

    "I can't believe it; a RTW campaign where money is going to be the problem." I took years playing the game with cheatcodes, or at a medium -50K, bc I couldn't figure it out... Once I figured it out, I kept struggling, until I realised having 30+ settlements, with every settlement stacked plus half of them with an extra full-stsck army to back-up wasn't really a good plan, nor necessary. 😂

    Wait, is this modded? because in the base game even with an Army Barracks you can only make Spartans in Sparta or Syracuse xD (I should have watched the video before commenting :P)

    Ahh the greek cities, easily the playthru with my most kills, love those brigde outpost battles. I remember escorting 3 generals and 3 spartan units to mann my 3 empty settlements. We got ambushed by a full army of purple roman soldiers with archers cavalry decent footment. My spartans fought very valiantly. Their cavalyry was no match against my 3 generals but they were too numerically advantageous. I had to form my 3 spartans to form a triangle formation to deflect their many archers. My men fought bravely and luckyly my generals were able to breakthru from the enemy cavalry and managed to retreat at the edge of the map. I may lost the battle, but saved 3 hardened generals at the cost of 3 spartan cohorts

    I did something like this as the rebels and I played as on Greek rebel city and left the other cities alone and when I ran out of money I cheated some in but regulated myself to a fair amount but when all the rebel cities were taken I would no longer cheat in money and I would take other rebel settlements by putting troops there and then I allowed myself to control the other city

    You shouldn't strech out the Phalanx too much. If it is just 3-4 men deep, it is much harder for Cavalry to jump over it

    on turn 1 of not modded game with Greek Campaign, I hire mercenaries and attack the Romans in Sicily while simultaneously attacking Corinth; highest taxes I can take; withig 20 turns I have a solid position and income and can declare smooth sailing; the Romans Brutii and Scipii knocked out if focused within 10 - 15 years (20-30 turns)

    Yep, as said in the video: Spartans are not just limited to Pergamon and Sparta. Generals are also Spartans, and Spartans train in 1 turn, rather than 2 - to keep the series shorter.
