Playing The Greek Cities Question on Thermon.

[MiniKiller]

Should I just leave it? A huge stack of Brutti are coming for it. Should I make a dash for Athens? I captured Zeus and that land for Macadon already and feel I can beat them off (Espcially with Brutti there, Macadon will go after them aswell)

Scippi Broke our Aliance to grab Syracuse but they are besiging at the moment. Is it worth it to try and hold Thermon of dash for Athens? [Stil rebel a small force who I outnumber 3 to 1 (Macadon) are currently headed for it. Nice 3 way battle in the potential making]

Thanks.

i would try to hold the brutii off thermon and apollonia, their trade gets a good boost otherwise, more money for them more troops heh, syracuse is tricky and costy but if you manage to hold them off remember that they will keep trying and so will the carthagians so either leave or go on the offensive and capture sicily for your self ;)

If you must choose Athens is far more importand city. Far more protected, great port position for trade and naval base.

I think Athens is the best trade city in the game, and in my Greek Campaign it seemed like a better option than surviving siege after siege against the Brutii.

Athens is hugely important, you simply must try and take it. In my greek game, I just gave away Syracuse to Carthage. It made them happy and stopped our war, got rid of a province that wasnt cost effective to defend, and also worked against the romans. Win win win for me!

As the greeks, defending the sicillian province is easy with archers, so keep that.

Try to get peace with macidonia so you can concentrate on the brutii and their attacks. Rule the seas.

The key to overcoming the romans is to land in italy early. I have just taken all the cities up to rome - the scipii are destroyed and i am seiging the brutii's last city.....it's time to march on rome!
