2) One thought - the Scipii are now stuck in Africa (no ships and they'll have to fight all the way round the black sea to get home.) Has anyone tried letting a ship be created in a Mediterranean port e.g. Sicily, let it go and pick up an army and then sink it on the way back?

3) Final note - re re-training. I can re-train troops to make them stronger, but not recover their numbers - am I doing something wrong that can obviously be corrected?
1) It's been a while since I played the game, but IIRC the army that attacked first would always get the town. I could be wrong, though.

2) IIRC the vanilla R:TW A.I. was not very keen on naval invasions. Chances are that, fleet or no, they will simply sit around in Africa (maybe attacking nearby cities) until you show up.

3) Most likely the city doesn't have the barracks level required to train your troops, so all you get are the armour/weapon/experience bonuses.
