I've noticed the same thing. I've never seen an emergent Carthage, and the Roman-Carthaginian wars were fought, basically, to determine which major power would rule the western med. sea, if I remember my world history analogy correctly, so shouldn't they DO more? I wish Carthage would rampage a bit more, cause some havoc.

Cant agree with you theere, I haveseen campains where the carties steam rooled Itay, and had a Epiros campain, where they took Iberia, which a did not really bother with and than started crawling from the Pyrneys with full stack and loots of elites.

Well I'm certainly glad it CAN happen. Hope I see it, eventually. Maybe I shouldn't play a faction that has to crush Carthage every time....

I've seen Carthage really push into Iberia, in my current campaign they almost killed the Luso until Rome (me) stepped in, it was almost a re-play of Hannibal and Saguntum.
