    I fought a huge war as well once - Romani (ME!) AS, Baktria and Saba against Ptolomy, Hai, Phalava, Carthage (only held Mallorca, no ships!) and Lustonnan. The AS was a 5-city state, the Yellow Death had Egypt and Jordan as well as the old Arche (or most of it), The Saba had Arabia, I had the entire med save the ptolomy's lands, Hellas, Anatolia, Italia and South Spain. It culminated in a huge, 5000+ warrior fight between the Arche, Roma and Baktria against Ptolomy, a tiny Saka army, a Phalave Horde and a few Hai. It crippled the Yellows, killing all 5 of their generals (they had mysteriously taken an allergy to the tea..), left the Seleukids with just one leader, the heir being slain with honour, Rome took Egypt in a few turns and had become easily the most powerful faction in one climatic clash of arms, one of the few appliccations of the 'Waterloo Principle' I have seen in TW. The Battle was near Arbela, prompting Alexander references from the sons and grandsons of his men on the seleukid side.

    It was once a larger war, but the Koinon, Epieros and the Averni (on the enemy side) and my allies the Aedui had been killed.
