I revived ALEXANDER'S EMPIRE in 58 AD!

- Remember my EU4 Athens campaign? In that one, I went West to East, this time we go East to West to try to form and revive Alexander's Empire in EU4! There's only one tiny province with the culture we need, so we're starting this EU4 challenge out with a bang as a vassal of a satrap. This is the extended timeline mod, one of the best EU4 mods out there, I'd highly recommend it!
This is how I revived ALEXANDER'S EMPIRE in 48 AD in EU4!

You wanted it, so I followed up with another part! - czcams.com/video/0ShVmhaInSs/video.html
if you started from the years 2 to 10 the Indo Greeks would be an independent state with hellenic as its faith
@Mikołaj Dujka only until the year 58 plus you can see all your neighbors next to you
@@unknownexplorer6232 that would be a painful 50 years
@@arcanus5120 just spam dev
@@prodbasedmystik that would be an objectively boring video
@@arcanus5120 its not that bad i've done it plenty of times all be it not as a minor nation
If you start somewhere around 20-30 AD you can actually play as a member of the Ptolemaic dynasty that ruled Egypt after Alexander the Great. They rule the roman vassal Mauritania and their religion is Hellenic
I cant see them in any start date
@@vel3035 its not a start date
@@Geo-nw9ug so how do I play as them?
@@vel3035 just click the year/month buttons manually to turn back the clok from the first startdate. You can start as early is 1AD if i remember correctly.
@@keizervanenerc5180 thank you
The 2AD start has the Indo-Greeks
You should start November 1st, 1444 right before the battle of varna, I want to see how extended timeline handles it.
Great idea.
Not greatly i think since the later the start date the laggier the game is
Something that I like to do to add flavor is to name important provinces with forts after amazing generals. That way, 200 years on people will be reminded of their bravery and you'll feel more attached to the land you occupy.
My god. The larp possibilities are endless!
I name provinces after good rulers and heirs. It’s narcissistic but fun
Based idea
The Huns also have a mission tree in Extended Timeline, so that might be a fun start to try out. Especially since West Rome is basically falling apart when they're in power
One weird with is that the huns idea are trade like idea I think, I'm not sure
Extended timeline is such a cool mod, I really need to play more of it, it's just a shame that there are few mission trees and stuff, which to be fair makes sense but still.
it’s the epitome of “wide as an ocean, deep as a puddle” for me
theres mission mods for it
@J Wilt we do not care
@@ysff0710 i care
@J Wilt we didn’t need an essay for an explanation
Please, do continue this campaign, it'll be so nice seeing you suffer while fighting Rome.
Extended Timeline is basically just another game
I'm ecstatic this is done but I'm disappointed that you aren't hellenic. At the earliest start date indo-greeks start as hellenic.
@Avi
Oh that makes sense
one province? you should name ALL provinces Alexanderia
It just feels right
I have actually played the Indo-Greeks before and have formed Bactria as well, one of the coolest games I've had, glad you played it as well
Please for the love of god accept the cultures your empire is actually made of. You only get full cash and manpower out the single bactrian province and all others have a big debuff
Bactrian is the best
He is roleplaying and converting everything to bactrian.
Love the extended timeline videos! Keep them up!
Playing Rome at its height in euiv extended timeline is like starting as ming if there was no such thing as low mandate. I think reforming Rome in vanilla or forming Rome in imperium universalis is cooler.
Rome in a game covering its full period should have an event for the fall of the monarchy, the contest of the orders which would be pretty basic. You click an option to reform into a republic for the former, and then the latter would be kind of like court and country, or possibly an hre event.
It’s possible that Rome should even have hre style mechanics to represent the de facto degrees of autonomy/sedition practiced by equestrians and governors of the principate. It could be a unity/fragmentation mechanic where Rome uncontrollably forms vassals that are disloyal and then Reintegrates them. Then in the third century a disaster happens and pretenders stacks are always trying to depose the emperor, and the country breaks into separate countries you can reconquest with cores. Events also would occur where the emperor gets assassinated by praetorians. Finally the principate would need some kind of ancient adoptive dynastic element, not as deep as ckiii, but events lead to the emperor choosing an heir. Uniting and stabilizing Rome from within would be satisfying, and then winning against Persia and the barbarians would be a good althist mission tree.
What your describing would be a full mod on it's own.
I've played them twice now in extended timeline. The disloyal subjects is the best way I've found to actually survive.
@@derekskelton4187 Yeah republican Rome is arguably a combination of colonizing with oppida, something analogous to native federations/diplomatic vassalization, and conquest of foreign tribes. Otoh archaic Greek poleis involved more colonizing by sea. The principate period has two incidents of dynastic succession that were resolved quickly and then a fifty year anarchy. Roman legions we’re stretched thin to fight each other, the sassanids, Carpi, Iuthingi, Quadi, Sarmatians, etc. Rome’s history specifically is intricate enough to deserve a paradox grand strategy. I know there’s imperator and mods but they don’t reflect Rome’s circumstances closely.
The best time period would be 0 to 1500 auc.
That’s all of western Rome’s history, Byzantine-Rashidun wars, and just long enough for Charlemagne to meme a personal union on Irene of Athens.
@@brutusthebear9050 By releasing and playing them? Or using them as cannon fodder in wars?
@@KuhulAjawMapGaming Releasing Vassals to survive.
(Slaps roof of fort) this bad boi can stop 40 thousand Persians if it wants to.
Imagine how satisfying it must be to come up with and craft the missions for the different cultures in this game
You better continue this one my boy! Can’t leave us on a cliffhanger like this
Well gosh, keep the good times rolling! Part 2!
i usually dont comment on youtube but i feel like i gotta say, whenever i see an upload from you i audibly get excited :D
Oh god yes 🥵 Love to see daddy Alexander Legacy being recreated
This is one of the best series on your channel
Hey Laith, I'm just a bit curious. What's the plan with your Ulm trip, do you guys already have any idea when you're going to go there?
Great video once again, thanks for the amazing content!
you should definitely convert to hellenic for that sweet roleplay, not sure how tho
can't wait to see where this campaign goes
You should do a round of Switzerland in the Present Day bookmark
yay for longer video!
Please do more of these ❤
Dear Laith, the Tooltip with the Ruler you get is usually right. But the Pretender can die before he enforces and get replaced by another one and thats when you dont get what you were promised.
And big thanks for the Videos you keep bringing, your playstyle is really entertaining and I cant really get how you do manage to survive in such chaos, but good job and its alot of fun to watch, keep it up.
Now this actually gave me ideas
Not for EU4, for CK3, but still
Ideas is ideas
It took me so long to notice that his headset is missing
I love when Laith starts aggressively leaning off camera from pure stress.
Yea would be fun to see where this goes if you would continue
Lets go 45 minutes of the best eu4 channel
Part 2 would be awesome
Well, if you have nothing better to do, you could play rashidun in rise of islam. They get some pretty juicy bonuses. And 666 ruler, and two good generals.
BOY DO I HAVE GOOD NEWS FOR YOU
Lmaoooooo
Plz continue this one I need to see the ceasers face when a greeko-Bactrian army marches on him from india
Loved this video.
God dammm Laith looking fly as fuck today
Laith: *rebel bombs the ai*
The Ai: *rebel bombs back*
Laith:
:O
Weirdly one more branch of Sakas were around for ck3 time frame in 868 start.
if you read the event where you get the core, it says that its because you are mahayana and bamayan was mahayana
we need more!
I'd gladly take a second part lol
The northern satraps aren’t the remanants of Alexander’s empire, they are sakan(a Iranian people) invaders
Nevermind
Can someone actually tell me how many nations in extended timeline have mission trees?
Starting at the very beginning of the game (2 AD) you wont be able to see anything other than your neighbours, so no agressive expansion. It's easy to expand, i did a lot of games in britain and scaled up
leif at start of war oh want that merchant from bam at end of war totally forgets to take bam!
How are you using both the Graphical Improvements mod and stellaris font mod? When I use the graphical improvements mod that's compatible specifically for Extended Timeline, it looks a lot different than the normal version seen in your video. And when I use the stellaris font, the game always crashes when I open the Ages screen
Id like to see more of funny british man paint map videos more.
The pretender tooltip tries to be true.
It is correct on the day it spawns, but typically the pretender leads an army. If he dies as a general he will not take the throne, but his name will stay on the tooltip.
You can kill all the pretender armies that aren’t led by the leader safely. If he dies the ruler is just rerolled.
i had an interesting, to say the least, interaction with you via discord
h
You should start as someone in the aztec area and wait for colonizers to come
Waiting for doom... But still it is good idea, maybe we will visit they?
mods like this show how much people hate playing Imperator Rome
Is rerolling potential advisors actually even odds? My impression was that you're most likely to get another one of the same type you just dismissed.
please continue this
the indo greeks converted to buddhism and are actually believed to have sculpted the first depiction of the buddha in human form, you can see what I'm talking about if you look up Gandhara Art. They didn't "betray" hellenism, they adapted to the lands they ruled over, since they were quite literally the last surviving independent Greek state in existence.
for the love of god, press the button in the bottom right of your popups, and set them to display as icon. you don't need to know about every single thing that happens via popup. it slows you down super hard
ty for usin my reccomendation
"The last greeks" the thumbnail says, pretty sure greek people still are a thing lol
curious why you didnt take this on in imperium universalis?
Whats that money sound it sound like the time I was electrocuted by the police
What
109k subs, where on earth is the ulm collab?
Have it be like Marklar and name everything Alexander
Bactrians aren't really remnants of Alexander's troops
they're descendants of deported settlers of Alexander's conquest
which is to say not the people you'd expect to be good at fighting
The real alexendaer the great
negative manpower actually makes sense
you've got some men who are really ought to retire but just can't because there's no one to replace them
so any new ppl you get are going to go towards replacing them before you start getting any new free manpower
Can you keep going? And what mod is this again?
this is the male fantasy
Play as either the selucid empire in imperator rome or as parthia in this mod
Aaaa you did it!
Woohoo Bactria!
Can anyone please list me all unique mission trees of ET which are actually super fun like this one? I would rly like to play it
The huns are really fun ngl
You should play meiou and taxes
I still wonder why tf there are factions named Iberia and Albania in the caucasus
Since you already did Taiwan conquering china, why not do Tibet? If you want you can do Tibetan Empire vs Tang Dynasty
That would be badass
Continue.
Part 2
18:04 did I just see an Albania where there is supposed to be an Azerbaijan
32:55 AND WHY IS IBERIA WHERE ARMENIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE
Which mod is it?
Extended timeline
@@jamesmorris8321 thank you
if it were me, id have grown bigger in India first but then im not as good at the game as you so i couldnt win when armies are 5 times bigger than mine
Finish west Rome please, I love you and I love all your videos but please for the love of God finish western Rome.
20k retreated with full morale against an 8k LMAO < Cheats :)
Why is your adio so low
ngl kinda want you to take all of india first before you start going west hehe
Fun Fact about extended timeline
Rome is a bitch
no seriously 40k manpower, 90k units, no bonuses to military, +15% land maintenance, absolute hot garbage unit pips
Oh and also they trade estates for a government that give -40%devcost and 200 govcapacity (which actually helps the ai since it's not always smart with privileges)
BTW every pagan religion has a diety with 10% land morale, 5% discipline, except hellenic which has ares with 10% land morale and 2,5% discipline
When ulm
