Economic warfare is possible, but know that the AI gets financial support on each difficulty level. If you want to, you can damage barracks that are churning out argyraspidai or elephantes indikoi. For the cost of one assassin you can constantly damage such barracks and therebye prevent the recruiment of specific elite units. Expect the AI to repair these barracks. Triggering revolts is equally possible, but imo harder than in vanilla. I've only managed to do so in border regions.
