    I'd do the following

    Take out these in the following order

    1) Arverni
    2) Aedui
    3) Sweboz

    Consolidate your armies after that campaign. Move a couple stacks down to the north African border with the Ptolemaics (these are for later). Take the rest of your troops and take out Makedonia. Once you finish off Mak start moving the North African troops in on Alexandria. This way you have a nice 2 pronged attack on the Ptolemaics and essentially just 1 front to worry about.

    Note you probably wont have to worry much about the Getai, I find they tend to spend most of their time going north.

    I'd be content taking Mediolanium from the Arverni -- you will want easily defended borders; and if these are not too far from your core military centers all the better.

    I'd also take Krete which can act as a fine base for supporting your war effort against the Ptolemaioi (you can use it to mount naval invasions; or just for refitting your navies...). Also: you will likely benefit from access to Cretan archers...

    I would focus on the Mikra Asia frontier: leaving the Makedonians in place as an allied buffer state, drawing the Ptolemaioi military towards them rather than you. It's not about being nice to the Maks: it's about being seriously destructive to the Ptolemaians, and possibly have the Maks be eliminated for you by Ptolemaioi. This should make it easier to hold on to North Africa, as well as succesfully raid the Nile valley & Syria later on.
