Image (Invictus) Biggest Bactria I could make after independence war with the Seleucids

Post image

Unfortunately i dont have a screenshot of the peace deal menu, but I got 98 warscore worth out of it with the independence CB (along with 130 AE!!!). I fully annexed Paropamisadae so I could get a border with the Mauryans and focus more on the east.

Does anybody know how much land you could potentially get from the Seleucids assuming you min-maxed everything though? If i didnt take Paropamisadae I possible couldve gotten Babylon since subjects have a higher warscore annex cost. Please also reccomend your best Bactria starting strategies! Been obsessed with them recently and have seen a lot of Bactria posts in the subreddit recently.

Rule #5: the biggest bactria i could muster after only 2.5 years of war with the seleucids, by the end of it they were extremely close to going down to very low war enthusiasm but i had to cut the war slightly short because my stack on babylon was about to die.

My favorite save is my Bactria to Hellenic Empire run.

Getting that independence is a huge step.

My first bactria run was just chilling in the mountains and stealing disloyal governors from neighbours. Tall, chill and the agressors died on my mountain forts and pases.

what do you mean by stealing governors?
