Field of Glory Empires Challenge with Grey Hunter

[Greyhunterlp]

Hi There, I'm Grey Hunter, and I'm lucky enough to be taking part in the Dev Challenge!

I should introduce myself, I've been doing LPs/AAR's for a long time, some on the matrix forums, but I moved over to Something Awful to fill a Grog shaped hole there - I've done a lot of games, and I'm currently in 1945 of my second day by day LP of War in the pacific.

I'll be trying my best, but as a dad with a full time job, I don't have the time to throw at the game that others do. I basically get up at 4am to get some time to myself, and I'm still running LP's of WITE, WITP and a weekly RPG game. - that said, this is a unreleased game, so I'm hoping for the first challenge at least the learning curve will be a leveler.



Challenge 1 is simple – unit all of Italy under the Roman sandle. I have no idea whats going on, so bear with me as I learn the game! no time for off screen learning here!


Video 1 is mainly me getting to grips with the system and learning I need a lot more combat power.


This is the start of me actually trying to win the game. I hope to get time to have another bash before the time limit runs out, but from here on out, it will be a real attempt.

Thanks in advance for watching.
Grey

Grey Hunter, thank you for making this. I cannot wait to check this out in a couple days.

Continuing on, I run into some problems in the south. This puts me behind schedule.


Part 4, where I learn that sieges can be hard.

This is still very much me learning the game, some people would do this off screen, but I love showing my failures - only from failure can you improve!
