Starting Situation

The Roaman Kaiserate is one of the generic nations in the Chisimbi region, stretching from  Twizanyika in the west, to  Tzhimane Confederacy in the north, and to  Zeblu in the east, and Roaman Kaiserate,  Ibhayiz, and  Imba-Zaru Principality in between. They all share a series of decisions leading them to the conquest of one another, and ultimately to some other nearby regions.

The game starts with Roam in war against Imba-Zaru, and Ibhayiz in war against Tzhimane. Each country that defeats their starting opponent can take the decision that spawns some free divisions, unlocks the next decision, and grants some other bonus depending on the nation.

The next decision, Cross The Divide, unlocks in June of 1008. Any of the four countries that was at war at the beginning and completed their previous decision, will be able to declare war on others (Roam or Imba-Zaru on the north, and Ibhayiz or Tzhimane on the south). Thus, if anyone hasn't been able to deal with their initial war yet, they may end up being invaded by someone who has, so it's important to deal with the first war quickly, so you have the initiative.

However, this is the opportunity that Zeblu is just waiting to take advantage of. Once someone takes the Cross The Divide, Zeblu unlocks their own decision called Let Loose The Horde, spawning some free divisions and attacking all countries involved in the central conflict. Twizanyika is not going to sit idly, either. After Zeblu lets their horde loose, Twizanyika is also able to attack everyone else, including Zeblu.

If none of the four middle nations ended up crossing the divide by June of 1009, for instance due to being stuck fighting their starting wars, both Zeblu and Twizanyika will be able to take their decisions regardless. This is also the moment where any other country in this region unlocks the decision to attack Twizanyika, which is useful if Twizanyika decided not to take their own decision for some reason.

Once any of the six nations conquers or subjugates the others, they will be able to take yet another decision that allows them to core the entire region via compliance. If you created any puppet states, they will also be automatically annexed. Furthermore, any unifier except Roam will change their cosmetic tag to United Chisimbi, the exact name depending on their ideology.

Their appetite doesn't end at just unifying Chisimbi. The unifier unlocks the decision to attack  Kingdom of Zongo,  Melahaka, and  Tanaigha in July of 1010, followed by another decision to unlock compliance coring of that region. Somewhat unfairly, the attacked nations (neither those three, nor any that are going to be mentioned later in this section) do not get the opportunity to core Chisimbi. Afterwards, three additional avenues unlock for Chisimbi, which you can embark on in any order.

Firstly, in January of 1011 there is another decision to conquer  Naugdaw,  Maglibing, and  Talarayi, and then another to core them via compliance.

Secondly, you get a decision that allows coring  Sambovato and  Feathisian South Zebrides via compliance. Notably, there is no decision to attack them. They are meant to be manually justified against by the player, as the AI would seriously struggle trying to conquer those island nations.

Thirdly, in January of 1012 you unlock the decision to conquer Zaikiria, the region consisting of  Lan Kir Militarchy,  Khamrin, and  Sen Kinh (which by now have likely already unified under Lan Kir). However, coring that region is not possible, being inhabited primarily by the kirin.

Finally, there is a decision to attack the  Realm of Kiria and any of its potential breakaways (besides Changeling Fragrance), which unlocks in January of 1013. Despite its late unlock date, this decision doesn't actually require the conquest of Zongo or any countries beyond it, only the unification of Chisimbi. Like with Zaikiria, coring that area is not possible.

Military

The Roaman Kaiserate has an army of 9 divisions of 6 infantry battalions, 1 division of 8 knight battalions with a recon detachment, and 1 division of 8 charger battalions with with a recon detachment.

Even though the Storm King barely touched Chisimbi, he has left his mark on the region. The rise of the self-styled Kaiser Augustus in his wake has led Roam on a conquering spree. The temporary collapse of trade has allowed the slaves of Ibhayiz to rise up against Tzhimaneish masters. Even the Zeblu are looking north after their recent truce with Zongo. With old and new conflicts finally coming to a climax, one thing is certain: there can only be one winner.

Centuries ago, the griffons of the Romau Legion found themselves stranded on the shores of southern Zebrica. Initially working as mercenaries for griffon cartographers, merchants, and explorers, in 807 they founded the city of Roam in the midst of a Zeblu invasion. The city has prospered ever since, with the legion forming the centrepiece of its military. And far from being the only legion now, its traditions have been spread by Augustus to all forces of the Assini.

Aspiring Empire

• War Support: +12.00%
• Compliance Growth Speed: +4%
• Military Factory construction speed: +6.00%

Kaiser Augustus, commander of the Assini militias, can certainly be said to be an ambitious stallion. After he removed weak and indecisive city governments from power, he quickly mobilized the economy and started to look for opportunities for conquest. While he framed his first strikes as retaking Assini cities, he since dropped any pretence. Roam marches to war, to forge an empire like Zebrica has never seen.
