Why?
In my current Romani campaign, i have the most problems (as always) with stack after stack of Sweboz armies, which come over the alps every year.
So i created an veteran army, with a 6 star general, and all silver chevroned triari, principes and hastati (the only army i ever retrain) that i could use in auto-calc to somewhat stop the Sweboz, so i could focus on Iberia and Greece.

And then the Sweboz came AGAIN, now with 3 full stacks, and the besieged Mediolanum with two. I sent my army over there, with my 55 year old ex consul, and i hoped i would attack them next turn (it was winter). I wasn't sure if i would defeat them, but i hoped i will, and started training another army.

And what happened? during the AI turn, the Aedui, allies of the Sweboz, bribed my general!!! I was shocked! I couldn't breathe at first, trying to find where my army went, and i saw my general there.
I know there are some birbable generals, but god damn! the guy was a Consul a while ago for Chirst sake! 3000 veteran men were lost in an instant. Mediolanum fell, even though i had a full army guarding it, the urodusios and wogozez scared the crap out of my army, and even though i killed 3000 of them, they got like 2500 back after the battle.


Now i really don't know if i'm gonna continue the campaign. Patavium is besieged, at the gates of Bononia ther's the Sweboz king's army, and the whole Po valley looks like Sweboz's homeland. Meanwhile i'm trying to go all historical and ready to conquer Greece... Damn Aedui... I will never feel such a satisfaction as when i will destroy those bastards.

Did this ever happen to any of you? That the AI did something this SMART, to really ruin your will to play? I was completly unprepared for this, and now i dunno how i will manage to secure my homeland. I mean it will take 24 hours of manuall battles to regain my lost territory!
