lol these bastards are probably going to back stab me, i think im going to do what i usually do, im going to sack the settlement (sorry if you were born in Syria) and leave, though this time im going to hand the settlement over to Ptolly, and the army i think ill just keep in Syria to help with the war effort. Maybe that will give Ptolemy what he wants and hell back off and pull out of my holdings in Turkey...

If there's one thing I've learned your allies dont like you taking key settlements in their wars.

But I've notice this is a really good tactic if you are A- running low on cash B- not really running low on cash but need a quick boost to fund either a campaign or your economy (doing this is really good for raising the funds for mines or dockyards) OR C- you have a new general who needs to make a reputation for himself.

The KH are really good at this kind of strategy aswell, hoplites are very good at capturing walls (dont bother with anyhting but stonewalled settlements, they are the only ones with good money in em) and are even better at pushing into the square through narrow streets, once your in the settlement all you need is 2 decently experienced classical hoplite regiments and you'll push em back eventually, just make sure your stretched wall to wall and you're on guard mode.
