So, Epeirotes Approach Me

[Andronikos]

AFAIK the mission is scripted, it is called Epeirotan Aliance. It depends on ownership of certain provinces, perhaps diplomatic stance of you and Epeiros and certain number of turns must have passed. You become alies with Epeiros and when you attack those cities, an Epeirotian army will spawn to help you.

and will generally do bugger all.

Started an Aedui campaign about a week ago and got this around 262 or so. Now around 250 but I havn't bothered to assault those cities yet. I can only afford two medium sized armies. One which is slowly grinding down the Romans who are now down to just Arpi, Taras, and Brettia, and another which is slowly conquering the remaining rebel settlements in Gaul proper. Of course I needed my northern army to come south to deal with the stupid mass merc armies recruited by the Roman AI and so northern expansion has been painfully slow. Currently looking forward to a massive war with the Sweboz.
