What do their armies look like anyway Spooky? Because I'm pretty sure that full stacks of Pantodapoi and Akonsistai couldn't do this!
:egypt:
Sweet jesus!
I recommend you to attack soon! before they get even more powerful! If i was you I would first attack old carthage and quickly take africa. At pretty much the same time I would land stacks in modern israel.
then i would attack egypt from two directions.
soon after that i would start to move stacks into modern turkey.
anyway, good luck!
it would be nice if you wanted to upload a save-file from that game! :D
I have various saves from differrent points in the campiagn i'll up load them at some point.
currently a number of cities have rebelled back to carthage with some armies fileding silver chevron and silver upgrade elephants!.
Right now my only suggestion is to destroy Gaul, Germania, briton and everything in europe, build it up, then make several "Perfect AOR armies" and split them down the middle,
and if that doesn't work and they start conquering territory, it'll be EB history.
Just imagine a player character escapes his Empire and takes refuge in Britain because the Ptoleys conquered everything
Oh and http://www.truthnet.org/islam/Islam-.../Islam_map.jpg
I would suggest keeping one save just so you can see how big they get and on another save play as normal.
And upload your save so we can try too!:knight:
BTW are you using any mods in your game? (playing on ALX maybe?)
OMG!!!
You know Spooky... that's... that's spooky! (ok sorry :shame: )
And you have to KILL THEM ALL!!! to win the campaign... niiiiice...
Destroy or outlast
Yeah, like the Saka-Rauka is going to kill them off. Could you tell us what their diplomatic relations are? I´m guessing they´re at war with the Sab´yn, in which case I doubt they´ll last much longer. Really, I don´t think any faction will last long once that juggernaut decides to crush it unders its mighty feet.

Pretty much every faction is doing well.
Except Macedon, that is. It was either them or me.
Audui had he bad start, but are recovering. It will be a good fight for gaul between the two tribes, unless the Romans take Insubramrog.
The Sauro's held the whole northern Caucasus at some point, but the Hai split them in two.
Epeiros has been allied to me from the start, but they recently attacked me (I'm in 246 by now). I'm also getting regular attacks by Pontos on Byzantium and on Helicarnassos by the Seleucids.
Edit : it's not very clear, but I hold Syracuse (and Messana too by now)

Human player: Romani
In most parts "business as usual", save for Asia Minor: After beeing pushed out from Greece Makedonia made her most glorious return as Lesbian Kingdom and has now wiped out Pontos and thrown the Seleukids out of all of Asia Minor. There seems to be a real Diadoch War ahead with four factions (including Epeiros).

:laugh4: Loving BI ^^
Slowly making ground against the Sele's and moving into Indian territories, still allied to pahlava since day 1
Pahlava losing/taking territories with Sauro all the time and slowly losing ground to Sele's
Hai are strong , holding their recently taken territories, but seem uninterested in expanding
Pontos ignoring everything else except Mak settlements in Asia minor
Ptollies only seem interested with Sab' Yn who are always sending stacks north, though there is a half stack of Ptollies seiging Kydonia :dizzy2:
KH still hanging in with a couple cities revolting to their ownership
Maks have blitzed poor Getai who have been destroyed and are now focusing on Sweboz to the northwest, Sauro to the northeast and Pontos in Asia minor (yes they are attacking basically everyone they can ... and winning :sweatdrop: )
Romani slowly falling apart since the Carthies landed(!) and took Capua(!), they have a full stack of polybian and allied elites in Roma and Arpi to hold off Carthies who actually have alot of units in Capua, maybe from continued landings?(i have no idea)
Carthies, as above, have invaded mainland Italy, secured all Sicily and are pushing their way through southern France. Carthies and Luso's were allied untill Luso's betrayed them and took Gader. So now the Carthies are sieging Numantia and have a fullstack (in screenshot) heading to retake Gader
Arverni/Aedui are fading powers, offering minimal resistance and petty skirmishes against each other and should have been destroyed years ago if not for Sweboz fighting Maks, Romani fighting Carthies and Luso's fighting Carthies
Casse took a few territories but have stagnated :thumbsdown:
Wow! I really like that expansion in Konny and Voice's campaigns. It shows that Macedonia really doesn't need that much help - folks who say they are wiped out in every campaign are just selectively viewing these things. That Mak Anatolia is just awesome and the Mak blitz in Voice's is very interesting too. Parthians were doing well in Voice's too till he stopped them. And I like that KH is still hanging around in multiple places in Voice's also. Carthage in Voice's is great too!
Yes, that is first of all for the survival of Makedonia in Greece. They are usually not able to hold themselves in Pella, but really have a good starting position in Asia.
I think if we would rename the faction "Epeiros" into "Aeikides" and "Makedonia" into "Antigonides" (not ment as a serious suggestion) no one would be complaining, because Makedonia does not disspear it simply changes from one ruling hellenic family to the other, while the former rulers of Makedonia create themselves a new Successor Kingdom in Asia.

I just conquerd those pavhlan settlements. They declared war on me after many years of peace. After taking their homeland provinces I forced them to ally with me and to give me 1000mnai for 25 turns (I love force diplomacy :2thumbsup: )
Right now I'm building up my cities and preparing an army. The Selues should be afraid!
Mac and Epeiros seems evenly matched. KH is still around, holding two provinces, Rhodes and Lesbos. :P
Both the romans and Carthage are massing in Sicily. Soon the Punic war should start.. I hope for carthago to win! :yes:
Really cool Mak expansion konny and Voice, though seldom.:grin:
I'm probably just tired, but I lol'd.Quote:

Hope the lesbians win .. eem .. you know .. not the lesbians but the lesbians .. oh well ... the people from Lesbos should win .. this is confusing :dizzy2:Quote:

Maaaybe we don't need to have this conversation here. 8p
Btw, out of interest, how did one got about deleting one's messages?
Just imagine if gay women were called "Sappho's", then the Greek Women named Sappho would revolt :(Quote:
