Carthage and gauls

[USMCNJ]

what is wrong with Gauls and the julii when you play as carthage.

I'm currently on my 4th carthagenian campaign. Every time it's the same story, the scipio and the gauls make an alliance in the first 2 turns. Then the Julii, scipio and the gauls attack me for the rest of the game. The gauls and the romans never have any issues.

I have waited till 212 BC before destroying either the romans or the gauls (just to keep the game fun) and the gauls and the romans share an alliance till the end.

This is strange for a few reason. 1) the julii and the gauls are suppose to hate each other. 2) The gauls have an alliance with the scipio not julii. 3) the gauls always attack me first in Spain, (i've tried having a mass army and a weak army in Cordova, and both times they attack. So, it's not because i'm an easy target, or a threat)

side note 1) how do you make peace with the romans? is it even possible?
you can never buy peace with all 4 factions, so the next turn your back to being at war.

side note 2) what happened to the search feature in this forum?
