Re: AI faction expansion in your campaigns?
Seems like you're doing pretty well Viking :balloon2: , i started a sweboz campaign like two days ago and after 10 years i already control most of central germania, about 7 cities, my goal is to quickly advance to the south and pull up a huge defensive wall against the romans and macedons so i can built my elite forces and attack them when i'm ready :2thumbsup: .

Hi
Here is a snap of my Karthadast game, year 229BC:

Note Pontus waaaay out in the western seppes. Have no clue what happened. There aren't any pontic troops there. Must have been bribed but there weren't any diplomats in the area either, and it certainly wouldn't have rebelled to them... ~:confused:
Re: AI faction expansion in your campaigns?
Here's my Koinon Hellon campaign, in the year 244BC:
Wars: Me vs Epeiros, Me vs AS, Me vs Ptolemaioi, Sauromatae vs Hayasdan.
I'm currently allied to nearly all others, and so there aren't any other wars except Everyone vs. Eleutheroi.
The reason for all my wars are foreign aggression towards my peacefull city state alliance...

Note that the Ptolemaioi, the Aedui and the Parthians have bribed settlements.

The Seleucids are giving me a hard time too. They are at war with the Ptolemaioi, the Ptolemaioi constanly threaten their southern flank, and you know what? They attack me! So I took all of their Asia Minor possesions, which included Tarsos, and Antioch. Then in all of a sudden the Romans attacked me, the Ptolemaioi attacked me, and a little later the Epeirotes attacked me. I pushed the Ptolemaioi out of Asia Minor, took two regions of the Romani and got a ceasefire and a new alliance from them, nearly anihilated the Epeirotes, but now I find myself threatened by nearly all of the standing Seleucid armies. They have just about thrown every single able soldier they could find onto me.
It started with just an invasion army, that fled from my garrison in Antioch without taking even a single casualty (they simply turned, and ran away before the fight had even begun), but one turn later it included stacks of thorakitai (the Seleukids simply love them, and so do I - provided that they don't attack me), spherdonetai (spelling?), pantodapoi, pantodapoi palangitai, pezhetairoi, thanavbarra (again, spelling?), peltastai, and generals. These combined forces amount over 5 full stacks, and that just for one single region, without the funds to properly finance them, and a whole southern flank now vunerable to any invasion, even if it was an invasion of akontistai. :jawdrop:
Re: AI faction expansion in your campaigns?
Seems like you really pissed them off hehe :p. In my Pontos campaign i'm constantly at war with the seleucids and ptolemaioi, just took karkathiokerta and antioch from the seleucids and salamis from the ptolemaioi. But the Romans are getting close in the west and have all but conquered one of the getai cities. Knowing that i control byzantion and tylis to stop the macedonian advance in asia minor and to secure my west flank, the romans will probably attack me as well so i'll be very busy in about 10 year orso :p.
Still a nice expansion with KH there mate, i'm still playing on easy because of the fact that when i start to play at a higher dificult setting my enemies bribe all my cities and when i have to reconquer them they attack my flanks so, god knows where they get all that money from ://. Andy idea how to stop those bribing diplomat basts by the way?
Re: AI faction expansion in your campaigns?
Well, I smashed the Seleukid armies yesterday... :balloon3: :balloon2: :balloon3:
I got a ceasefire from the Ptolemaioi, so now it's time to advance into their main provinces... :grin:
Against diplomats:
Assasinate them, bribe them, have agents in your towns (agents are relatively expensive to bribe).

Carthage in 209BC
I had fought two wars previously and took all of Italy south of Rome. The romans recently declared war again, and so my Iberian army marched on Massillia. I fought a roman fullstack to get the city, and it was a cakewalk compaired to the war against Ptolemaioi. But it is great fun
Re: AI faction expansion in your campaigns?
Cool Hayasdan going South and not rolling through the Steps.
Re: AI faction expansion in your campaigns?
Koinion hellenon is in a cool spot, seleucia seems to be segmented,
Hayasadan is owning, Macedonia owns Greece..and Parthia is landlocked(Not including Arabia.)
Haha Gallic Christmas colors..
Re: AI faction expansion in your campaigns?
That is a realy cool campaign Warlord.
Bactria in India, Hayasdan down south, Romans actually expanding, A massive Makedon and an Awesome Sweboz.
All in all, pretty cool.
