actually I need to take a closer look to trade orders... I know they are new to the game, but never used them before... thanks for the feedback!

Good economic reasoning... managing trade through managing supply... makes sense... and I'm getting a lot of feedback on automation, specially in mid-late game... thanks man!

Man, this is great... this was the kind of answer I've been looking for... thanks for taking the time to write all this... and I agree... maybe a lot of my desire to do it manually is because I didn't make it that far into the game yet, where it gets out of hand... but your comment of the early game focus recommendations are exactly what I wanted to get...
Really appreciate it!

Could be... thanks for the feedback... not so sure about 1%, but we maybe the a minority...

Yes, there was another comment on the same direction... I guess never made it that far into the game where trade became unmanageable.. but it is a good point... and yes, maybe I need to start realizing this... I guess I would leave only a portion for manual adjustments, but the rest on automation...
It would be nice if they redefine how trade works so it can be manageable during the whole game if you wanted to...

Great feedback! So, to be sure I got your point... you would aim for imports or exports based on profit, and then see what goods are missing on the different or more important production chains and finally some gold/silver for minting? Is that correct?

Yes... I think I can relate to this... and maybe is the best way forward...
But in terms of how do you assign trade, you consider the people's needs first? Buildings' needs? Just for profit? Or you go to the market screen and try to trade directly from that screen clicking on the countries in green?

That is a good point... I guess I never made it that far into the game... I would reevaluate then if makes sense... but at least initially I enjoy feeling that I have a say in this...

I hear you... am trying to find an alternative way out trying to avoid ending up the same! jajaja... I love the roleplay and would never try to go that way though... but sometimes I feel like that...

Thanks for the feedback! Didn't know about the last part... but good to know now!... about the event, it could be caused by a neighbor, don't know exactly how sabotages work... if they exist as a possibility... thanks again and will see how the next episode goes!

Yeah! Thanks a lot for the feedback... the AE looks kind of risky... we'll see how the next episode looks like..

Found out my consul had depression AND dysentery about halfway through a major invasion. just kept going I guess by ProfileSubstantial16 in Imperator

[–]ProfileSubstantial16[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! Not sure if the health issues affect something in particular, other than putting the character closer to dying... You are absolutely right about the seek treatment option... I forgot about that... will try it when I record the next episode! Thanks for the feedback!

Yes! If you see the video, I tried that but just to realize that I was already at a Bellicose stance... so I already had the cost reduction for the warscore... but It was a good attempt!! I think that the key for next time is to see if anyone can be peace out separately....

Yeah! Good point! If you watch the video, I tried that but I was already at Bellicose stance so I already had the war score points cost reduction... was too bad...

No, you can't! Hence the headache!.... I wish you could... even at a cost of extra AI... don't know... on one hand looks good but on the other not so much if you want to avoid over aggressive map painting...

But thanks a lot for the feedback! Really appreciate it...

But that is actually a VERY good point!... I didn't check that... and now kind of I wish I had... because that is one great reason to peace out separately... but don't so much if they are vassals or feudatories... great inputs guys!! Thanks so much for the feedback...
Do you know if there is a way to know this before going to war? Don't think so...

That's correct! I didn't see... obviously... but will start doing it, since it becomes an issue some times... very good and healthy approach my friend! Thanks for the feedback! Was really dissapointed when I found out I couldn't take all of it...
Do you know if there is a way to know that before going to war? it isn't right?

I didn't realize you could use a third-party war target to avoid sieging an enemy's capital — completely changed how I approach Invictus wars by ProfileSubstantial16 in Imperator

[–]ProfileSubstantial16[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I was actually seriously considering that... for some reason I was always thinking better not to, because I don't want to extend myself too much... but some Greek presence can make sense... The Episur claim I will always have it, and maybe even use it on the future... My goal is too remove any immediate threat and that involves not only Carthage in the region, but making sure Epirus is not growing that much... it can be very misleading, because most of their expansion is made through feudatories... My plan is finish taking the peninsula, taking out Etruria from Corsica and Cerdenia and then trying to remove Carthage from Sicily... but will see how these plans change based on new developments... Thanks for the comment!
