I've started my "3rd Makedonian War" only it's against Koinon Hellenon who I've been fighting fairly constantly in Asia Minor. They need humbling so they don't wipe out Makedonia. Going to take Thermon and Demetrias, give them back to Makedonia, and then perhaps make KH a protectorate. Then maybe do the same to Makedonia. That will surely stop them fighting? Then plunder Epirus proper, and leave them with only Kyrene.

Pahlava are still struggling to push out the Seleukids, and now Baktria are trying to get in on the action. The Syrian War is now between Saba and the Ptolemies, which shields the Seleukids a bit. Trying unsucessfully to make the Hai and Seleukids fight.
