Romani 188 BC.

Finally getting to the end of the Second punic war. Hannibal is the current Carthagian Faction leader, but I think he's come a bit to late to help much...

Second Makedonian War is about to begin, probably because Makedon got thrown out of Anatolia.

Bactria... Excuse me while I beg for mercy.

My Pontos campaign.

Early on the seleucids and ptoly's became allies, but thankfully the seleucids always accepted my ceasfire offers, and after a short blitz of tarsos and antiocheia i managed to get some money, and claim the crimean peninsula...

the strongest faction is probably macedon, who were my allies, but then backstabed me... now i'm allied with almost everyone around macedonia, since they all fear them... when they backstabed me i quickly conquered ancyra, nicomedia and ipsos, but lost tarsos...

I just won the last year probably the greatest battle in my carrer. The macedonian FL suddenly attacked cheronesos and i had a preety weak army guarding it but somehow managed to defeat their really awesome army. They had 3 units of thraikan rhompaioi or sth, 4 of reformed phalanx 2 bosphoran archer + 125 men of the faction leader with 3 silver chevrons... I had 12 men left standing, including 2 family members... If i had lost the battle i would probably lose the game, since the crimean is an extremly important income source for me. It was probably the greatest battle i ever won

P.S. i've never seen the seleucids take Chingu

I'm kinda amazed the KH have managed to survive with Makedon so dominant!

Sounds like you had one of those truly epic victories anubis88 - gotta love 'em

Anubis, yor map is very weird. Mine looks nothing like it, i'm talking about the terrain. Why is that? Is it just the detail of the campaighn map?
Oh and Rilder would you tell me what the diplomatic situation is on your campaign?
Also I would love to be able to fight against such a worthy buch of enemies, look at the getai, the lusos, the sweboz and the ptolies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Would you please upload that save? I usually get too tired too soon of a campaign to actually get strong enemies. Please!

Diplomacy: Bactria is at war with Saba and Saka, + one other I think. (not Ptolmaios)

I'm at war with Carthage, Makedonia, and Averni, while Allied with Epeiros and Lusotannon.

Dunno the complete diplomatic situation though.

Edit: DL the save here:

He is using RS (Roma Surrectum) textures. Google it or go to TWC where you should find it. Heck, you can find plenty of references to them on this forum as well, after a Forum Search.

The link is in the EB1.2 mini mod pack thread. You can download it there without DL'ing or installing the mini mod pack itself.

grrr, sorry for my horrible paint-skills

here is my current KH on BI.exe

I was busy pushing the Maks northwards(s?) around 260 when the Epirotes attacked my garrision at Rhodes.

They failed hardly but because I gave them some 40k Mnai in 270BC to hold back the red hydra - they also failed hardly

- I took the chance to get Ambrakia and their main-Mics. After that, they pushed north and got those two illyrian provinces. Just last round the stupid Syracuseans rebelled to them but I had just destroyed everything there, because the

romans made my days with (Ceasefire-TradeRights >>> attack Syracus)³.

The Maks on the other hand hardly tried to get Pergamon as it was independent while conquering Byzantion, Nikaia and last round Tylis. The annoying AS stealed it in front of them ( btw. they also attempted to get Rhodos

but two stacks were owned by my navy while a third with 5 phalanxes

was destroyed by a mixed 2/3 stack of silverchevroned levy hoplites with one FM and one unit of ClassicHoplites / two akontistai and 2 archers

.) and now I think they gonna attack me soon. Hopefully I can resist those phalanxes <----<(-_-;<)

Oh and then, to finish my briefing, I thought of conquering Kallatis to get those SkythianHA's but there is a downfighted but silverchevroned 3/4 stack with the SauroLeader inside

so I'm currently preparing a raid at the city northwards to set some confusion and then pulling the Sauro-garrision out of MY Kallatis

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

Look at the Epirotes and Maks. One round before I took the screenshot, I thought "ohh my, hopefully they don't attack me." But as one can see, some Aiakides?!? guy is attempting to get them their capital back.
