Basileus & Chancellor's Report, Summer 259 BCE

Buildings
Construction has begun on a Choriton Syllogos Stratemautos in Antiocheia-Margiane, to allow us to raise some local units.

A game field has been repaired in Zadrakata, which also has a new Techeia Xulika. Some Ocheteia Haple have been constructed in Edessa to make it a much more healthy place to live, and to promote population growth there, as the number of men eligable for military service there is rather low. Preparations for a Heorte Poleos has begun in Hekatompylos. A Chrematistes is also being constructed in Karmana.

Military
A Kovkasi Lernain Netadzik unit has been raised in Mazaka, and a pantodapoi phalangitai retrained in Antiocheia and in Hekatompylos. A Pantodapoi unit has been retrained in Zadrakata.

Internal affairs
Some Aphistamenoi bandits who have for some unknown time gone unnoticed in Kappadokia, By the bridge south-west of Mazaka, have now been found. They are attacking merchants and caravans, blocking trade. Captain Mousaios tried to engage them with the garrison of Mazaka, but they ran and hid. It is just one band of Persian archers.

Aratos have fought and won a heroic victory against a Ptolemaioi army sent to relieve the siege of Hierosolyma.

Taxes were lowered in Zadrakata.

Intelligence
Our spies have managed to infiltrate Tylis and report that the garrison there consists of almost exclusively Celtic levies.

Misc.
Sarpedon and his Royal Army has moved south, and Phormion Epiphaneion Armeniakon has been moved west towards Ipsos.
