A Greek conundrum

[Garvanko]

I said take it -- not keep it. Raid, Slave, sell buildings and then sell the region back or sell it to Egypt. Your bridge is the bottleneck that will let you keep fewer forces in Asia and sew Greece up. Nice point on the sea-mobile effort, at least hit the one you want first and make it count.

Scenario A update: As you can see I have destroyed the Brutii army with minimal losses - my reinforcements from Corinth provided excellent covering support in that battle.



I gave up Appolomia, but have managed to consolidate my forces, and am now launching a counterstrike, first at Appolonia, then hopefully on Salona. My new Faction Leader (other leader died on that last turn) has moved to bolster troops and morale at the front.

Scenario B update:

Your point was valid Seamus, however I took Sardis and garrisoned, but was promtly seiged on the next turn by Pontus. Nevertheless, Ive got a strong relief force on the bridge from Pergamnum full of Armoured hoplites and Greek Cav ready to relieve, and hopefully cripple the Pontic influence in the area for a few years.



Following that, I hope to consolidate and push my army up to Nicomedia.

So far so good, I think.
