    Baktria's probably a bit too poor to attack India, with full stacks in practically every single rebel settlement.

    Take out the Selucids when they're still weak, after gaining trade rights from them. Their settlements are poorly defended and are more financially rewarding than the rebellious settlements to your east and North.

    Im playing as Seleukia and fighting with the ptolemaics while the computer baktria is taking all the rebel areas.Try to take the Indian areas if you can.Btw I'm not going to screw with baktria anytime soon,they have about 4full stacks and I have only 1.

    That's because the Baktrian AI gets 30k bonus every turn. The human will be struggling to keep in the black without extracting money from the Ptolemaics and Selucids via diplomacy and careful troop management.

    I really don't get this.. trade rights are kind of useless if you're going to attack them right away, not?

    When you declare war on them they automatically cancel them so what's the point?
