I've seen a lot of posts regarding the Julii family but none for the others.
So far in my Campaign I've taken all of Sicily and the 3 other Carthaginian regions. (Carthage, Thapsus and Palma)
Carthage was easier to conquer than i expected. They had a few elephant units that gave me problems but with my superior numbers was able to overwhelm them. They also had a strong navy which caught a few of my units transferring from Sicily to the mainland by surprise.
The problem I'm having is where to expand to next. I am allied with the Numidians and the Senate sends me a nasty note every time I try to chase down the few remaining Carthaginian armies that are hiding out in the Numidian's territory.
The Senate seems to be encouraging me to move the other direction towards the Greek Cities but I am reluctant to do so since there is currently a slugfest taking place between the Greeks, Macedonians and Brutii. I took Thermon earlier as part of a Senate mission but the Macedonians promptly spanked me, killing a family member in the process.
One suggestion I have for Scipii is to be careful who you place in Messana. I lost another family member here when the dang volcano next to it erupted. Luckily i had moved my faction leader to Syracuse a few turns earlier.
How are other people approaching the campaign with the Scipii?
