I am sort of playing your game just by slightly different rules. The game just seemed a bit slow with 2 turns/years per day. I also find it much more challenging if you are limitted to conquering objectives - only looting permitted for other settlements.

I can give you a rough points score if you like:
Britannia + 1000
Hibernia + 1000
Palma + 1000
======
+ 3000

Played 16 Years
16 x 500 = - 8000

So I'm on -5000 points, which is pretty crummy.
