And here we have my "starting position" at winter 272BC:



All my original provinces rebelled, now I just have Pergamon. I disbanded most of my original units and used a combination of money from destruction of everything that was in the others (apart from the unique building in Ambrakia), and some cheated money to develop my mines, ports and regional barracks, along with process_cq to get them all ready.

In a few turns time, I'll see if there's some Celto-Hellenic mercs available for Pyrrhos to go and take Nikaia and it's mines.

Anyone know how many mnai 9000 talents of silver would be? I feel I should set my starting money to that amount.
