I can't help but think of the Joker from the Batman movie while playing an Arab nation, particularly one from shithole North Africa. Conquer Tunisia/Algiers and nobody panics, nobody does anything because it's all part of the plan. But swoop in and conquer Greece and Thrace, well then everybody loses their minds! Nothing like having the entire European continent bringing 200,000 swinging dicks to Constantinople -- rather, Maghrebople. One man in Rome has the power to get half a million testicles on the move. No wonder the Papacy has a strong vein of sexual perversion feeding blood to its cocklust for all things Roman. Strangely, nobody bats an eye if I land 20,000 mercenaries on Rome's backdoorstep and invite myself in sans-lube. All the whores just watch their pimp get slapped around before calling it a day after, oh, fifteen years or so.

My Paradox playing is pretty cyclical too. Right now I'm playing only Vicky 2, but eventually I'll exhaust the options I find fun, and if that's before OG I'll probably do something drastic in HoI3 like fascist South Africa (incidentally, there was a HUGE bug in Black Ice for Japan and Soviets with the enforced peace between them, as it would cause serious shit to go down if Germany was invading too). EU3 fails to hold my interest completely these days. Before the current cycle I was playing Rome, bringing the world some Hellen glory as Seleucids.
Actually I generally just keep being Greece and continue removing Kebab. I find the idea of being "Byzantine Empire" in the 19th century prepostrous. I haven't done a Greece campaign in a while, seems like a good idea now that South Africa campaign is drawing to a close.My Paradox playing is pretty cyclical too.

Try forming byzantine empire in victoria 2 if you are exhausting the fun options , yes its included but the option dont show up until you get all the new core after megali idea and superpower status.
Actually there seem to be many ways to prevent Germans from ever becoming a problem. For example, in my Scandinavia campaign I established a stranglehold on Hannover, and conquered around the Kiel. These two factors put any hopes of German unification to rest (preventing North German Federation is the pivotal task). Italy is much easier to keep under the bootheel.well mussollini was considering himself as a roman emperor , so in an alternate history, a fascist evil powermongering greece, why not . Remember to make germany your bitch as well, true alternate history at its best.It xill be a really tough challenge although.

The Prince and the Thane is very slow for me, no matter what speed i set it is always speed 2 or 3 while vanilla runs smoothly. Any way to improve on this?
Not really, if I can make over 1400+ gold from my shithole provinces in Semien with 2-3 gold per month, so can you! Though most of it came from rich Jews that I've invited to my court dying left and right.What I don't like about TPATT is ridiculously reduced income, even if you have 20 or so stewardship and lots of income buildings.
Ok i tried turning off all official portrait packs and the game now runs much smoother, still slightly lags but i blame the mod's size for that, generally it is very playable now.The Prince and the Thane is very slow for me, no matter what speed i set it is always speed 2 or 3 while vanilla runs smoothly.

Are you playing my put together version with the Better Looking Character mod included? That one is known to hog resources on some pc's.
