Go up and take gaul, try to avoid war with Spain if you can, but if you can't, hold off the Gauls and take the Iberian penisula. Then push forward to the german border, hold and take Britan, then through germany to Sythcia.

I wouldn't do much more in africa. Maybe grab one or two more along the northern sea towards spain, but hold and get the land you need in europe.


Have you patched the game at all?
