Then.. Rome.. I had been at war with Rome for 60 turns by this point but I've never seen any Roman armies, even once I started bringing my soldiers into Italy via Syracuse and I literally defeated Rome without fighting anything other than garrisons.

The hardest fight I got from the Venetti after they threw a stack (literally a stack) of Oathsworn and cavalry at me and took out my army sent to 'hold' Illyria, should they ever decide to come and play but this happened so long after the wardec that I forgot I even was at war with them.
In my Epirous campaign, idestroyed the forst Spartan army within the Athenean territory, then put Sparta under siege, destroyed their second army and garison since they salied to met mein battle.
The turn i conquered Sparta, Athens declared war as well as Knossos.
Without waiting i assault Athens, which by the way had only an army of 7 units and two navies of a total of about 15 ships plus the garison, so i autoresolve a close victory and Athens is mine.

Syracuse and Rome declare war to me, Rome haw an army in the sea close tp Apollonia, but it doesnt move.

Knossos comes to Attack Athens, its easily repeled, then a Syracusen army together with a fleet capture Apollonia and i attack the next turn with an army half regular troops half mercs,recapture it and imediately dispand all the mercs.

Until now i use only 1 full stack army and just starting to complete a second one.

Rome after a few turns tries to assault Appolonia, but there is a Cartheginian army near by, which adds in deffence and the Romans are destroyed.

Knossos mekes an other attempt against Athens, same results, then i invade Crete, cupture Hierapytna and thats all the agresivenes of the AI.

I must also note that, all this time, about 35 to 40 turns, Macedon, never made a move, which is very strange since they have a DA with Sparta and Athens is their CS.

Anyway, after the conquest of Crete, i see 3 armies of Tylis to besiege Pella, which has no standing Army and they could easily have taken it, but instead they just wait for the surrender.

I deside to declare war to them, move my both stacks and assault them, lift the siege and take the city later for myself.
When i move close to the borders, next turn they have abandoned the siege and thats not all, the funny thing is that, i then sent an agent to discover where they went and i saw 2 stacks of Macedonians just standing in a distance watching...
