The Sweboz, Aedui and Casse have expanded at a steady rate similar to how they do on my usual h/m settings. Averni surprised me as they're actually keeping the Romani from making the "Romani-Gallic empire" they usually make in my other campaigns. Getai haven't really expanded as much as they normally do, which is probably because of Epeiros.

Romani and Karthage are at as always with Corsica and Sardinia exchanging hands every few years. Bit of a balance in Sicily with Karthage owning Lilibeo and Romani Messana respectively. Hiero is still alive and kicking in Syracuse which is quite surprising.

Makedonia has been all but wiped out by Epeiros, and there was a standoff between KH and Epeiros until KH finally took Pella. Epeiros was the dominant power in Greece until they lost some battle to the Getai, which made them vulnerable to the KH's invasion.

I've expanded my kingdom slowly but surely in Anatolia. Hayasdan had almost all of their armies in the steppes fighting the Sauromatea so I conquered their homelands pretty easily. Declared war against the Ptolemaioi after they took Antioch (because I know what happens when they take it), and I'm currently getting ready to besiege the city itself. The Arche is falling apart as they had most of their armies fighting the Ptolemaioi in Syria and Koele-syria when the Pahlava went to town on them and split the empire in two.

I'm really quite proud of the Pahlava as their expansion in this campaign is the best I've seen by them in my 1.1 campaigns so far. As of 230 bc they're besieging Arbela, Babylon and Seleukeia itself.

Baktria and the Saka have been going at it for the entire campaign. Baktrians just took the Saka capital, but there's a Sakan full stack heading towards Baktra itself.


I'm planning on focusing on the Ptolemaioi at this point along with seizing a few eastern cities I need for the victory conditions before the Pahlava get to them first


Edit- Porblem with the screenies should be taken care of.
