    Just a few general tips: You were making so little in the early game because you had so many forts, they have high upkeep. When you totally conquer a nation you can choose to imprison their leaders and then make money off of selling them to slavery, which is a big financial boost early game. Loving the Imperator attention recently!

    I've never bought a comment or whatever, and it's not even much, but I'd really enjoy another Sparta video. You got me to play Imperator Rome (with Invictus mod) and have enjoyed it more than any other Paradox game! Cheers! I think it would be cool to see a diminished/ conquered Rome, or Spartan "Byzantium" borders, or a Leonidas's Revenge goal, taking out "Persia" which doesn't really exist in the same facet but, make it like restoring Alexander's borders? Anyway, thanks again!

    Are you aware of fort infrastructure capacity? Each province by default has 5, each level 1 fort adds 3 and upgrading those forts adds an extra 1 per level. Going above it increases maintenance cost by a lot. That's why you were bleeding so much money after taking Argos, the province was at 16/5 before destroying the forts. After it was still at 9/5 since you had three forts in the province

    Zlewikk (put it online a few hours ago) and Alton (some days ago) are playing Spartans too rn. But your campaign is way better (I really liked that you conquered Crete) and far more interesting - the early expansion, the fights against Macedonia and Rome, just great to watch. I would love to see a second part. Your video really motivates me to start Imperator: Rome myself.

  • @deeznoots6241

    Btw if you’re wondering where ‘The Besieger’ nickname comes from its a translation of the title ‘Poliorcetes’ given to Demetrios Antigonid(in game he is the heir to the Antigonid kingdom at game start) given to him based on his many innovative siege weapons in his ultimately unsuccesful siege of Rhodes, among these weapons was a 55m long battering ram operated by 1000 men and a 38m tall Siege tower named Helepolis(Taker of Cities), all of these siege weapons were inevitably abandoned when the siege failed and the masses of bronze used in their construction taken by the Rhodians and used to create the famous ‘Colossus’ of Rhodes.
    Honestly aside from the nickname Demetrius is probably one of the less capable Diadochi with a mostly unsuccessful military record and a bad reputation due to being a horrendous pervert, famously including an attempt to ‘court’ a young boy that ultimately resulted in the boy killing himself by jumping in a cauldron of hot water in a bath-house to escape Demetrius.

    A bit late, but any culture you dont plan to integrate it's a good idea to use the setup colony decision. It settles some of your core pops in one of their pop centers and increases assimilation there, creating a pop center that's just more loyal in recently conquered provinces alongside increasing levies.

    Pay attention to how many forts you have per province, you have a kind of force limit that makes them much more expensive if you go over it. On the settlement/city page, click on the spears and it should have it listed in the bottom right. Each fort in a province uses 3, but increasing a fort level only increases it by 1, and the base cap is 5. Military traditions and provincial investments can increase it, but until you do it's a good rule of thumb to just delete all but 1 fort in each province.
