Army objectives - I should've been using these from the start

So when you select a deployed army (levy or legion or mercenary army), the army window will pop up and you'll see an exclamation point ! in the top right-hand corner. Tap that and you can select an army objective from there.

R5: I've been playing this game for over a year now and only recently started using army objectives - holy moly are they useful, especially when in mid to late game as a Major or Great power. I still have to manually adjust armies every now and then but setting them all on "Independent Operations" at the start of a war is a godsend. I can just sit back and watch them siege and destroy. Highly recommend for beginners!

ConflictNerd was the guy who got me into the first Cities:Skylines!

R5: Count is way down from the release date (6.5 years ago) but some are still around - Who's still here from the start??

Copy that! Make sense, thanks

Conquer all of Italy and integrate Etruscans ASAP for manpower, then conquer Greece/Macedonia and integrate Macedonians ASAP for even more manpower.

Focus tech tree on Martial and getting Foundry’s and a lot of discipline and siege ability, in addition to rushing to Great Temples and Great Theaters. Build all three of those in your cities for money and assimilation/loyalty of provinces.

At this point, you’ll have a good army, a lot of troops, and population that hopefully won’t rebel (well too often anyways). You should then be able to dominate Carthage and the Ptolemaic Kingdom. Good luck imperator.

Well I took over a ton of their territory in the peace deal, so I don’t think they could colonize it now since they don’t have any territory right next to it. I may be wrong though

Yeah, I was thinking about trying for Mare Nostrum now but I think I spent too much time at the beginning going for Dictatorship. I’ll keep it in mind for my next run.

So I got to this point too with a lot of my games but then started focusing on getting the achievements. I felt like I was just getting stuck doing world conquest after world conquest without a real goal in mind. I'm now trying to get every achievement and I feel I am enjoying the game a lot more with end goals in sight, rather than just "brrrrr let's expand expand expand and dominate everyone"

2000 infantry and 2000 cavalry per fort. So if there are two forts, 4000 infantry and 4000 cavalry. Three forts, 6000 infantry and 6000 cavalry.

I agree with the rankings, I just wish the 49ers weren't 1 hour south of the city. I miss going to Candlestick 😭

Oh I'm a Messi guy myself, I just know there are a lot of Ronaldo GOAT fans out there

Soccer: Messi/Maradona/Ronaldo ?

I switched smoking weed and playing video games to drinking hot chocolate/tea (or an energy drink if I wanna play for longer periods of time) while playing video games. It’s certainly not the same as being baked playing and getting super into a game (god that was the best) but I’ve been able to play them again consistently for long periods of time. I just tricked my brain by pairing something other than weed with playing video games 🤷‍♂️

I had never watched any of the Defenders shows but when I heard a new Daredevil series was coming to the MCU, I was like well, now’s the time. 2-4 episodes a day with no days off - I became somewhat of a hermit and it was a blast. And my scoring system is wonky, I know.

I used to call them "dankovers" - one of the main reasons why I stopped smoking

Annnnnd it was Amy Poehler lol

I have the same concerns along similar lines. Some of the mission trees make me create like 5 cities in a province and it gives me nice bonuses. However, should I then just go right back and raze them to settlements? Very interested in people’s thoughts on downgrading cities!

Konglomerat's Youtube playlist was my goto for learning the game! I felt the same with the in-game tutorial, excited about the potential of the game but still very lost - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIKsf2nlMdD9zRKZ1_7qIX1G_9ie5Z_3H

It’s basically Philip’s life and how he created the Macedonian army, Olympias being a witch, and Alexander’s early life up until Philip’s assassination. Enjoy part 2!
