Boats

[Slyspy]

Why does the AI build so many boats and then hardly use them. No sneaky attacks (at least not yet) and hardly any sea fights. The other Roman factions seem to attack foreign ships (often dragging me in as well). Even fighting the Greeks, who had a huge navy to the detriment of their land forces, I was hardly troubled. My pair of ships carrying catapults to demolish the walls of Sparta sailed gently through the masses of Greek ships no probem.

Strange thing that as soon as I had killed the last Greek leader and Sparta had become a rebel helot city those selfsame hordes of ships attacked me left right and centre. My pair of ships did not make it back. Weird.

Speiling and tpying never my strongpoint!

Well, the Carthage have been keeping me off their cost with their fleet. Don't seem to me they don't use them. Tried to send troops, but geez, they ended up far off since the fleet of mine was running for their lives......

I know it can be bad but funny thing is (playng as Scipii) the other Roman factions have complete dominance in the seas and managed a breakthrough inot the black sea, but the god news is there sea struggle has minimized the size of there navy, so when the civil war breaks out I have very little to contend with.
