[QUOTE="Idhrendur, post: 18992139, member: 136081"]Welcome to part three of the Empire Strikes Back! The previous parts can be found here: [URL='http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?644185-The-Empire-Strikes-Back-a-Byzantine-Megacampaign-(Part-1)']part one[/URL], [URL='http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?725694-The-Empire-Strikes-Back-a-Byzantine-Megacampaign-(Part-2)']part two[/URL]. This one will have something new: if you respond to my posts in character, you will get in character responses back, as part of the regular reports to the Senate. Note that you have no power over the game itself, as the Empire is still an Absolute Monarchy. More details in the posts below.
