That's the whole point...
We ship them > cheats are not allowed > we need cities that can produce our legions close to the east before conquering east..
What am I talking, chinese?
The whole point is to slow expansion.
If we conquer Greece, we will have to build up our strength there first, before moving even more east into Asia.
Otherwise we will indeed have to ship legions across huge distances.
That is kind of the whole point, that and we do not want too experienced legions...
For another example: we can't go conquering Iberia witheout either having decent recruitment options in Gaul or willingness to ship legions by sea back and forth.
If we play the way we play now, this game will hardly present any challenge towards the AI+ we'll grow very large very fast (for which we do not have the playerbase anyway)
