Cool Makedonia campaign, jerjes.

Pahlava, 226 BC.

Now that I have a border with Saka they are eager to declare war. That army, though, is my "defensive" force in Mesopotamia that attacks the constant Seleukid invasions from Syria. Led by the 10-star Darman e Dahaen.



I don't know when this trait came up but I don't see it often. Very cool.



I'm guessing it has to do with these many heroic attacks, highlighted by me.

VH/M Romani Campaign

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

The Aedui are only where they are today due to my actions, at one point had given them most of gaul, and made them my "allies". They also allied with Luso, and eventually both attacked what settlements I had kept in gaul. Leading to what you see now, where they are a border between the sweboz and myself.

By 250BC Makedonia had owned everything on the mainland other than Sparte, and being the Romans i had an abundance of money so I decided to try and send financial support to the Spartans. Well seems they made better use of the money than I had expected. Makedonia now fiddles in Asia Minor but tends to gain and lose territory constantly.

Carthage and the two other main cities were burned down by my armies, and somewhat paralyzed them against the Ptolemaioi. Who between them and Bactria, have eaten the old Arche Seleukeia who have one settlement remaining and won't last long. The Blue and Yellow Deaths are allied for now, see how that goes.

The world according to the Romani 218BC



Firstly, I misspelled a few things, since it's already late, but i noticed them only just now, so....

I deliberatly didn't get map info from anyone, since it kinda sucks when you see the entire map, and this way it looks more exotic, really what the Romans would know about the world at the time.

West: Carthage was ammasing land forces in Africa, even though they conquered everything west of Cyrene, so i teleported the armies in Iberia, to rapresent Hannibal, and will soon invade the Peninsula.

The Haedui almost wiped out the Arverni, and i'm barely keeping the alive trough military and financial aid.

The Sweboz went CRAZY. They didn't expande north-east at all, but smartly only West, South, and South East.
Except for 2 cities by the Getai, all of the east on the map belongs to the Sweboz.

The Epirotes were protectorates of a mighty macedon, but they were my allies and so i landed an army in Albania and attacked the Macedonians with the Epirots near, so that they had to declare war. I thought that Macedon would nearly wipe them out, at which point i could intervene and grab a few cities. But to my surprise the Epirots completly outclassed Macedon, whom are berly alive.

The Seleucids are acting very historically. They lose and regain lands all the time. However, Antioch has just fallen to the Ptolies, so i'll have to give the city back to them myself
