finally okay so for this year's Grand campaign I'm starting in the 1066 start date for good reason you see I've got a character that's got Grand Ambitions for a very Grand campaign because over here in Athens lives a man who's had enough uh not this guy though although cool little chin beard thing going on let me go ahead and introduce you to our character today it's Roman the Roman you see Unearthed in a cave Frozen for a thousand years the last Roman has arisen and as you can tell from his eyes he is very shocked to see what his Empire has turned into oh yeah you see from my inspiration today I actually tried to make him look what I think the average Roman probably looked like and and uh I don't think I've done too too bad of a job okay we are getting to like blow up the old territory here I think we should probably leave it off here yeah you see that's the look of a man right now who's trying to process the information that the Roman Empire is now Greek and yet also somehow German okay so you're telling me that somehow the the Greeks who are walking at us very slowly with very long sticks are now robing even more perplexing that the Savages from Germany who wore trousers are also now Roman okay so our Quest is going to be pretty simple first off I'm not too sure about this whole Byzantine Empire thing not only is it lost a whole bunch of cool Roman land it's also in the process right now of losing even more and then on the flip side in the old capital there's a big bearded Barbarian it is just not going to do so I propose as the last proper Roman sitting around unless there's another one that I don't know about that first off we blow up the Byzantine Empire and then we get to work on the Holy Roman one so I think first off we need to educate these Greeks on exactly what being Romans all about also because all of our vassels and everyone in our court is not Roman and that apparently ticks them off quite a bit cuz they hate me well I guess in all fairness I did come out of a cave and immediately start nitpicking their entire lifestyle married someone but my Bishop immedately made me divorce her then I got this new one and she got pregnant very quickly good powerful loins there Roman DS have been blessed by series oh wait hold on we we uh I I meant power to Christ oh it's it's a woman and she kind of also looks like a frog i h okay well uh a good Roman name mesalina that'll do okay we just got very lucky there we just got all of auu which we are going to press very quickly because they don't have a lot of troops but they do have an alliance and he has a lot of troops we might need to make a friend here go had another daughter too okay well you know what this was actually good because we can get more Romans out there and more importantly more alliances too so we can uh get a bit of conquering going should we take the risk here we do have allies and more troops but will they get here in time oh it did not matter at all we just absolutely destroyed them there let's get the siege done and we're going to get ourselves a whole new duy oh we finally got a son and he's called Octavius and you know if the head that big he he's definitely an Octavius so we're going to stay with that hey so after getting our other duchi of we can go ahead and make our kingdom title now whilst we will be uh hanging out in the Kingdom down here for a while I do think we'll probably uh we won't stick exactly with the Kingdom of helis yes but I am now despot Roman of helis where I will continue my plans for Roman domination okay so we have grown our new Roman Kingdom quite a bit but that does not mean that I am happy in fact I'm not happy at all which is why I've started a dissolution faction against this whole purple thing so that when the time is right we will strike and hopefully dissolve the whole thing and then we can move on to our next enemy over here well I think it may just be time to push our little dissolution faction oh we got someone else in here too um the county of poor well that's all I need and to war it goes okay so it's all going to come down to this Banner we've already sieged it down because they were dealing with another another revolt and we have secured an alliance with the French by poing off one of our Offspring so this work oh yeah um she absolutely destroyed them well there goes the bantine Empire job complete now it is sad to see such a prestigious quote unquote Empire collapse but don't worry the Romans ain't going nowhere in fact we're only getting stronger and our culture is still spreading nice and far but we're not done there we really need to go ahead and move on to our next Target whil our conquest and goals have gone uh pretty well actually Roman is getting a little bit old it's got an interesting nickname there too now we did have quite a few Offspring here some of which are interesting to look at so our lineage of Roman ancestry is definitely going to be secured we want to make sure that uh the realm will be left securely once um Roman falls down the stairs drunk all right next up we are coming back home it's been a little while since we were uh last here but this will be our home base for our next step of the operation all right this one is going to be a little bit tricky problem with Rome is uh it seems to be filled with loads of old musty men at the moment and uh I need to I need to get my old musty smell on it instead as the man was at the gates of Rome he took his last breath and ushered in a new era of Octavius and Octavius does live in a gigantic Shadow uh not just from his father's giant jaw and we have gone ahead and inherited our father's war against the pope which we want to have a good rule we should definitely make sure that we win this okay it does seem like me and the uh Pope have kind of done the same thing here huh we have already given ourselves an air and it is Roman definitely a fitting name for the very smart boy he'll become okay we have won our war with the Pope but as that had happened someone else has declared war on us we're going to go have to ahead and turn our attention back over to grie and also we we got a lot of interesting stuff happening okay other War dealt with now let's get to a bit of Realm stabilization and most importantly we're going to go ahead and move the capital back into Rome even if that old man smell still has not left Octavius rule has not been too kind to him at the age of 56 he's decided to pretty much give in now we do have our next step of the plan but I don't think we'll be doing it as Octavius as like most Roman leaders he's decided to go down a different path in life Called Death so instead he's just going to sit comfortably in Rome you know do a little bit of building here and there and then eventually pass a way of death enough even though you appear to be on the way out you have lived uh the same age of your father and looks like you're going to be living longer than him but to be fair he did live the last half of his life there as a one-legged drunk Roman had had a lot to celebrate I guess hey once again before this guy kicks the bucket we are going to go ahead and take a bit more land off the pope oh and yep I picked the right time to do it as he's about to die I literally timed that perfect as that is all she wrote for Octavius well our father Octavius wasn't exactly as great as Roman was but he did get quite a bit done but then he just sort of sat around and died of depression now we've gone ahead and left the majority of our lands over here to our brothers to administer we're going to focus now on what the original plan was which is getting friendly with the Holy Roman Empire y out of one Empire and into another it's definitely safe to say that this is a bit of a administrative nightmare huh okay so if I want to bring down the Holy Roman Empire I'm going to have to infiltrate it a bit more than just being inside of it no we need to get land over there H when our Le is sat right in the middle of this destitute Empire quote unquote we need to go ahead and make ourselves very cozy with him indeed which we can't do all the way down here in Bros so I have Justified myself a claim on Vienna which should be in my hand surely as I'm a grown man and currently it's being ruled by a little girl so let's go have a chat about that with him shall we oh he actually he actually accepted you know what I was fully expecting him to say no there and I was going to go to war with the small child yeah that's right I Roman II is actually a local hero for not beating up a small child ah but there we go we've secured oursel a bit of German territory oh the small child is very angry with me now right would it make you feel better Agnes if I invited you to my Feast as the honorary guest oh uh it appears I've given you the spoiled eggs Duchess Agnus my bad how did that happen and that really didn't seem to do much for our relationship did it he well once again my le I am asking you for a bit more land of an angry child it's like taking titles from a baby uh I guess cuz in a way it is we're just going to keep doing this until we get all of the land that we want down here in Austria oh well kind of out of nowhere Roman II has bit the bullet he died in his sleep which um yeah considering his nickname is the good as well all we did was bully a child game I'm not too sure about that one hey but now we have Roman II who smells like a bog okay Roman II dying has been a blessing because we've modified our feudal contract now so we can go ahead and declare war and we don't have to keep turning up to this old man's Court every now and then and begging him for land sorry no longer child in Austria uh it's a bit of a family tradition for me to ruin your life now that we've taken that Province we're going to go usurp the entire duche of Austria which will be our Hub now for taking down this old menace look at that nose is very red cuz nobody's really ever going to vote for me in this whole HR reelection thing we can't really just usurp our way through it so we're going to go back to the thing that worked best blowing it up yeah now how we're going to do that though is going to be a little bit complicated because this guy does have a bit of a competent Army and I don't exactly have plenty allies to back me up here once we wait for an opportune time to take down this Empire we are just slowly chipping away at land while nobody seems to mind okay so we have gotten quite a lot of land and quite a bit of power down here in Germany and I think it is finally time for us to press the claim of dissolving this Abomination oh also do you think this is the same King as Roman III it's not he just looks exactly the same this is Valance uh this is roban so Valance has gone ahead and declared himself king of Bavaria and our unwitting Le has given us all the land in said Kingdom which um would not really be a smart thing but he's also 9 years old so here you go it is finally time for us to press our demands and say that the H be no longer a thing oh um he just accepted alas for centuries our blood has declared that this Empire will burn and uh it did burn in fact we burned two of them to the damn ground finally a true successor to Rome has been born albeit it's a little bit complicated because we've actually got kind of comfy over here in Germany now whilst we have got a vast Empire spans from Greece to Italy and into Germany now uh it's a little bit disorganized a little bit overburdened and I think we may have to consolid did it just a little bit down oh Rex Valance just like every Roman leader has been murdered by an unknown as salant uh which in turn has split Our Kingdom in two now between helis and Rome up here but I do think that is probably for the best but with the kingdom divided like this I think it's probably best we move our Capital away from the very isolated Rome over there to our new Homeland over here oh it seems my uh my brother over in Greece has really got friendly with the Greeks straight away again hey you know what I ain't coming back to sort that out all right at least you're kind of embracing what I laid down there for you so ever since the collapse of the Holy Roman Empire there's been a bit of a land grab going on through the territory so I need to get myself involved now there's still a few States left for grabbing here but I think it would just make more sense if I land grabbed off the people who are land grabbing we go wasn't too difficult at all now whilst star kingdom is doing very well for itself I have to say I have heard Rumblings that something out east is a brewing uh news is getting to us very slowly but our dutiful leader Rex Ro Manus of Rome uh lot of ours in there is seeing to it that that shall be a problem because we will simply ignore it and go back to building ourselves back up to an Empire plus you know I'm sure if they do get any further over here my brothers got it covered uh mostly cuz he's so large now they won't be able to get around him doie now let's make the kingdom of bohemia disappear and Germany's turned into 10 billion different states again oh yeah uh they're they're getting very close hold on why did the Pope switch sides you see this is this is why I burned down rope yeah okay so we're just straight at bordering now I guess um would you like to get me into poten L man if only there was like some uh Empire that could have stood in the way from this of happening huh boys and the great German langra We've Ended up at war with the French who have gained thems a lot of land and I think they should share but with the help of my family the uh my brother down in Greece and also uh Scotland which I don't I can't even remember how this happened or when this happened but my cousin leades Scotland and he's created the Roman SC yeah I I don't know I must have sent someone over there to get married at some point and they ended up in control so Scotland is my number one friend other than you know my brother but yeah he's he's doing all right down there and together we are beating up the French for land in Germany and we actually have already won okay well thank you very much so we are expanding quite rapidly here and it is a bit untenable and I don't think we to hold on to a lot of this land but the problem is we did create a giant power vacuum that other powers are sweeping into from every direction even the Mongolians are turning up now in order to deal with that I'm going to have to get larger I um I don't think I have to worry about the French anymore someone just dissolved them okay I do promise though that was not me I know i' I don't I have a bit of history for it but that wasn't me okay now with all the land we have taken and the fact we're just a another bastardized German Empire uh it's time to declare ourself emperor of Rome Rome Reigns Supreme once more everybody although in all fairness this time it is actually Roman uh look you can tell cuz it says Roman there on the map I feared has finally come the Mongol Empire has arrived to claim my booty uh actually a female K too so she's doubly after my booty all right I'll be calling in everybody that I can that is willing to join me in this death war the banners have been called and Romans all throughout the realm and all the other Roman Realms out there are uniting to try and give me a helping hand here uh just just found the the Mongolian Army there boys we've gathered all the troops and we're going in for a battle okay it's being a very very costly battle but I think yep we we have managed to do it oh there you go one son out another one in oh there you go and that decisive battle has kicked them out but that they're not gone I could tell you that much but I will be taking that 4.3k okay whilst we're at it as well we're going to go ahead and take the rest of hungry before they get their hands on it oh she just ate my brother alive and I'm going to take that one very personally I've captured the Mongol War batter that is staying with me and another very ly War I just lost a lot more of my sons there but my brother is back alive somewhere no no my my brother did not make it my nephew will be taking up his title instead though we're going to hope that he holds on a bit better than uh his other family members I was murdered well this is certainly not the son I wanted in charge but unfortunately the one I did uh passed away uh non willingly in battle okay well Valen is not going to be uh lasting very long he's already on the way out oh but this guy oh we are in a very very bad period of Rome history right now in fact it's getting a bit too historical yeah we just actually got assassinated again so I don't know who got him this time but imperator Roman is the second he did not live too long but now we are imperador Leonidas and uh I kind of get the feeling that he might have been behind it never mind but he did Kill the original guy okay the Rome La is just it's getting it's getting too complicated it's too real either way assassinations or not he has made his way to the throne as emperor of Rome and I got to make sure that no one else is getting taken out here okay uh yep it's uh it's already happening again but I think it might be the leader of the Mongol hord that's uh actually trying to take me down CU I am her rival the only thing I can think of but we're just going to just going to hope that this works and I get her before she gets me this we're about to find out if this disappears immediately if she was the one trying to get me we did not even get her I'm going to die my spy Master to finally put two and two together realized it was her that was trying to kill me I don't think it really matters as I've now become a lunatic from probably the paranoia hey I got her and upon her death her Empire exploded there is only one way to celebrate this and that's by jumping up the roof yeah I just um I don't think he's uh too recoverable at this point I'll be real with you so I'm just going to go ahead and take on his two assassinated Emperors later and then One Lunatic Emperor hopefully we can have our elves a bit of stability in this realm all the year is 1309 and I think Rome is now finally in a stable place under imperator leonius II a brief period of massive instability where everyone kept assassinating each other and you know the whole Mongol invasions but that seemed to have cooled off now so I think we are fine okay like 5 minutes after I just said that I was just murdered again be roam still not in a very stable place truly giving Rome a run for its money in this one but uh here is the world at the end uh if if you can't tell it's very messy very interesting things to point out though is we do have Britannia that is an Empire attack but it is also falling apart got to give it that we got Leon which owns a whole bunch of Northern Italy and France over here and then uh the elephant in the room room is the chagai yeah that's um that's a problem for another day Roman kingdoms are still alive back here although they have split into epis and helis which I'm sure they might get up to semic or they might just get conquered in eu4 Jerusalem is also here and uh kind of scary thinking about it uh but yes that was our great dynasty of Roman the Roman where we came from we came all the way away from Roman and his uh absolutely horrendously looking jaw of Splendor and virtue and somehow we've made it all the way down here to imperator antonus and his very very turbulent line of assassinations before him I mean oh this guy assassinated assassinated assassinated okay it's definitely uh interesting to see how this will translate into eu4 I do have a plan but as you can probably tell we are very much going to be situated in Germany for this game but yes if you
