As it says on the tin. I heard that the TCC was part of the cause of the economic problems facing the Western Empire in the 4th and 5th centuries.

In the short run, you could do very well: Have Alexander Severus. (The Imperial Roman goldenbou of AH wishcasting) decively win his Persian campaign. The Romans win a respectable peace and earns the admiration of the legions. From that point, not only is Alexander himself much more secure in his power, the Sassanids have had their wings clipped early in their rise.
If he lives a few decades and is a competent commander, that buys Rome a lot of (relative) peace.
That's true, but doesn't do anything about the underlying economic crisis brought about by managing an empire the size of the Roman one without a real understanding of economics.
