wow, I didn't have any probelms really. I just did what I told you and now Carthage is the runner up for world domination, too bad I'm at the top and I'll never be defeated . Anyway, as for Italy, they sent troops there and it wasn't a two unit army either. In fact, they have pretty big armies, and if you want to see big, just bring your army near their borders or build a fort there. I hope you'll find some way if this doesn't work for you. Like I said, Myrrdraal will help with this and I'm sure he knows how to mod it so you can get the aggression you're lookin for.
