my kingdom expands! i've still not had one battle and i own two more cities now, both formerly gaul cities. i'm also close to negotiating a deal with the numidians for another.
the gauls have made a few overtures towards invading, but a well placed fort in a choke point discouraged that and they left.
the julii have also become curious and landed a small contingent on my shores. so, being a good trader, i sold them map information for about 6000 denari and bought one of the gaul cities with it :) i also bribed one of the julii armies out of existence to keep things sociable.
this is getting so interesting that now, if i have to actually fight anyone, even if i win, i'll take it as a failure on the part of my diplomats. ah, donald trump would be proud of me. i'm a roman corporate raider ;)
