    I'm waiting for the Augustans to finish it all off. And big rivals would be fun in EB if the AI were smarter, but even the team has to obey the hardcoding.
    Besides, I still have a few raiding targets to hit. I will paint the whole map red given time. The one good thing though is that the AI actually will recruit generals so I'll be fighting Eastern Merc generals + Catas + FMs = hurtin' on legions. Hooray bridges!
    EDIT: Mainly the killjoy aspect of big rivals in the RTW engine is that after the first few big battles it is nearly impossible for the AI to recover. Once the manpower edge has been achieved by the human, it tends to stay there. And the autocalc still gives massive bonuses to FMs, way beyond what even I would find plausible.

    Is there some new scripting I'm unaware of? If not it'll be a simple matter of churning out, say, 10-15 full legion stacks (hell I won't even need auxilia) and I'll flatten the Casse.

    Could you clarify that question? I do not understand what you are asking. Is is the scripted Casse invasion of Continental Europe you're inquiring about?

    No, I know about that, and I've yet to see a Casse stack anywhere. I meant going the other way. If they have a script that spawns armies if I invade, then storming Britain now is an option. If not, well my Augustus, when I get him, will need some work.

    *looks at composition of Casse stacks* Meh, one stack with a FM would thump what the Casse have. Bunch of levies mainly. Plus I'd have actual cavalry and they'd have....their fluffy chariots. Would Caesar have taken just a part of legions "because he could"?
