4:42 "I could go after Naples. I dont know why I would do that. That's not helpful in any way" Sir lacks the critical information. Conquering the land from Naples can mean that you've gained enough development to get rid off the army debuffs before you fight the Ottomans.
Guys I just have a general question. Does the game become too tedious for you at one point? Like post 1600. I've had that experience since 1.30 where I feel everyone has 40k troops and Maginot line built. Seriously, I love the game, but saps the joy as years go by.
FYI it's pronounced Magna GRAY-sha, and since Romans first encountered settlers from Greece there, they ended up referring to them as Gracians (Greeks) instead of Hellenes (from Hellas, which is how the Greeks refer to themselves).
I love you Laith but I’ve literally just finished RedHawks Byzantium > Roman Empire run and I just can’t be bothered to watch it again. Maybe in a few months though!
First he tells us he doesnt want to do a Byzantium run, then he does one. I guess the appeal of the purple phoenix couldnt be denied anymore and he had to play it. I dont mind tho, its pretty cool seeing Byzantium forming Rome. 😄
Hey Laith have you ever played as the VOC? The Dutch East India company. I'm playing as Netherlands right now. I'm struggling to work out how exactly to release the VOC. The Wiki says very little and doesn't explain how to do it. I haven't bought a dlc since Emperor so maybe its on a mission that I don't have? In the nation wiki it states its a REVOLTER nation. So, I have to allow rebels to take over all of the India provinces? There are also some events that say it can form it but claims you need a dlc I don't have for it to occur. Also, Im wondering, does the event, mission, revolt thing release it as a separate nation or as a vassal to Netherlands? Basically, what I'm wondering is, if I should keep Netherlands relatively weak before releasing & playing as VOC?
playing byzantium is something no one has ever done before! also i cant manage to play them since i suck with 250 hours but when i first started playing the game i beat ottomans as byzantium.. dont ask
start as a pacific northwest U.S tribe and take over every province that touches the pacific ocean. you would have to resist european colonizing while also invading asia all starting as a tribe. I call it, "THE RING OF FIRE" bonus points if you start as chinook and take over every fish province in the world (the salmon run)
Byzaboos are gonna love this one
Hey don't think we automatically love anything SPQR or purple phoenix related, OK? We aren't like that and can stop anytime.
Can confirm
Its like a reward
Can confirm; clicked as soon as I read Byz
It’s me I’m Byzaboos
A Byzantium guide? What's next, Tunis?
hahahaha
Just saw this after showering
"And your next line will be: this is the 1.37 tunis guide"
Hate to be that guy, but at 3:18 Ioannes is actually the Greek version of John, not Joseph.
Other than that, great video as always Laith!
Laith's declined to rizz the pope and is now rawdogging the Ottomans on vibes? Mandem
I apologise for writing that
i sentence you to playing a game as hawaii
@@punishedwhirligig3353 I recently did the Surfing USA achievement so I have already served my sentence
@@punishedwhirligig3353at least it's not Tiwi 😂
You can refuse the union and still ally the pope

Please finish this series! Super hyped to see Byzantium great again
laiths been thinking about the roman empire again
bro thinks he’s redhawk
How could you do this to RedHawk!?
What about this means there can’t be. Video by RedHawk too?
I was just joking. The two of them are friends.
@@Pharren88 so was I, with “hawk too”
Im but a sheep, and my feed is the millionth Byzantium video. Cant get enough.

Yep. Can't remember the last time I had a game go past 1650 where I wasn't trying to WC (which is such a slog)
Yeah it’s agony, vassal swarm is the only viable way to make it not suck imo
Modded AI scales a lot better, which makes the game more fun. Though Ironman is gone.
It makes it worse when most ai go defensive first

Every time I watch one of your videos you look more and more like one of my close friends and it's very strange lmao

Maybe in a few months though!
Sigma byzantium grind
Been a little while since I've watched Laith and WOW that's a whole lotta hair. Looks good though, keep it up man haha 👍
Haven't watched Laith in awhile and I was confused why Russell Brand was playing Eu4

draining the EU4 well before EU5 eh
One last hurrah before the casket is put in the ground

its a decision by the dutch, im not sure you can play as them
like you can release them but i dont think you can play as them without console commands or a later start date
Are more parts coming?
Yes! Continue this!! 🔥
playing byzantium is something no one has ever done before!
also i cant manage to play them since i suck with 250 hours but when i first started playing the game i beat ottomans as byzantium.. dont ask

I wish I was good enough to pull off a byzantium
Day 354 of asking for an Oranje Free State Playthrough of Vicky 3. Just 11 more videos and it'll be a year.

Didn't use the bulgarian rebels to pop them out of the ottomans and then annex them - 0/10
