    Thanks Yakobu. I'd never tried so I didn't know but now I do.

    I've decided to hold it. I spent a few turns recruiting peasants then sent my general to build some forts at the passes. We'll see. The worst that could happen is Spain attacks me instead of me attacking them, which is just fine. It turns out the German threat isn't as strong as prev thought. I think I will use a combo of bribing and attacking to take out some armies there and maybe a town, then I'll ceasefire and return to Spain. I'll give my new German region, when captured, to my ally Britain to act as a larger buffer.

    War in Greece was a humble experience. I got whooped on the walls of Sparta. It was the first time I ever reloaded after a battle. I won, but at the cost of a general and 3/4 of a full army. I've since gone back to sieging it. Battles for Corinth and Athens went better but they had smaller garrisons there. For some reason, while the Greek navy is large, they are almost all single ships and they don't seem to be coming together. With all the other Romans in the area, I have help on almost every naval battle.

    I've got a question too...
    Can Rome rebel if you set fire to their buildings with that special unit?

    Went north taking all the gauls coastal settelment. Spain then backstabed me so i had to distroy them whille fighting off full stacks of guals. After spain was distroyed I finished off the guals. I am now ready to invade germany.
    I found that a usful strartagy for geting senete offics is to kill off other romen family members with assins.

    So you rather enjoy the challenge of an unplanned for/impromptu start to the civil war?

    Or have you modded your assassins to a base 140% effectiveness level?

    Never seen it happen.. I doubt it would. You have to beat the Senate in battle, they can't be beaten otherwise...

    Ok, thanks But I find it's very good to sabotage the forum because it drops the population increase (to -0,5 in my case), so the Senate can't get to their highest tech level. They can't recruit the best soldiers now while I can.
