Germanic Tribes Stronk

[LildawgGaming 114]

I started a game with the 5 AD Start Date.  I decided to play risky and choose a Germanic Tribe Close to Rome.  I began by dominating my weaker neighbors.  Soon, a small coalition formed against Rome.  I was the only one who managed to take land as everyone else died.  Soon I had an army and threatened all of the other Germanic Tribes to become my vassals, eventually annexing them. 

 

However this came at a cost.  I had to assimilate ALOT of territory.  Thankfully, Rome was being nice to me.

 

After assimilating a whole lot of territory for about 2 hundred turns, I discovered America and defeated some Native American Monarchies.

 

Parts of Central and South America was gobbled up pretty easily.  Assimilation also wasn't too hard.

 

Then I turned my focus to the giant red monster of Rome in Europe.  I built up my armies and...

 

 

 

 

 

 

...They surrendered without a fight...

 

No, I am not joking.  I was so scary strong, that I vassalized Rome and eventually ate them in their entirety.  They also could have EASILY matched me.  But they took the coward's route and submitted to me.

 

I plan on continuing this playthrough.  I have A THOUSAND TRUCK LOADS of land to assimilate now.

 

Difficulty: Normal

Fog of War: Discovery

AI Aggressiveness: 125%

 

 

Note: I made my empire bright green to help show it better on the second map.

This is actually a really good strategy, easier to do in later scenarios cuz german lands are worth the same and there is no ROME but well done

The Plan:

I am gonna have to divide the region between various vassals.  I have too much land to assimilate.
