Re: Carthage is doing something, sweet.
Nope, the Carthies are just.. there. Side is still Ptolemaic, though my spy there is trying to change that. They've been standing there for years as well, right next to Ptolemaic soldiers, and not engaging them in combat. They've been at war for ages.

Re: Carthage is doing something, sweet.
I've seen Gaul in Asia. Now that was wierd.
Re: Carthage is doing something, sweet.
It's because historically some Gauls migrated with Brennus (not the one who sacked Rome) and settled in Galatia, in modern day central Turkey. That's why Ankyra isn't a Hellenic city, and the Hellenes can only recruit Celts from there. The mercenaries in that area are predominantly Gallic as well. Ankyra can rebel to the Gauls.
I suppose then that the Carthaginians were supposed to have gotten Phoenica from a rebellion, am I correct? If that is what happened, Kudos to the Ptolemaics/Selucids for retaking Phoenica before I noticed.

Re: Carthage is doing something, sweet.
Ok here is a pic of my Gaul campain. I know it doesn't look good, I took the pic of the map using my cell phone. I DON'T KNOW HOW TO TAKE THE MAP OUT OF THE GAME AND PUT IT IN PAINT.
Anyways here is the deal. I have all of Western Europe, exept Ibreria, and Brittain. I took the mediterranian coast of Iberia, and I am moving to finish off the Iberians.
I took 2 of carthage islands and one city in the main land. But since all I can train there are Numidian Jav and Numidian Cavl, and Carthege is pumping out MIC5 guys and I won't be able to keep it for long. :(
Can't Gaul make any stonger guys than Gagastrae (sp)? And if I build a gov't type 4 in a main Carthage city will I be able to make some decent troops instead of only javerlins (sp)??????

Re: Carthage is doing something, sweet.
Erm.... Gaestae are argueable the best sword infantry in the game. And not in a carthagian city, unless it one of the 2 in spain. Also type 1s and 2s normaly give better units. As for carthago itself, no those will be the best you can get. The celts don't have many options for recruitment in africa. *Very different culures, distance from homelands, little contact between them the natives there before*

Re: Carthage is doing something, sweet.
My bad my bad, I didn't mean Gaestae. I mean any other infantry unit made after Bataroas/Botroas once u build the barracks that costs 20K. (darn it forgot how its called, probably MIC5???
Re: Carthage is doing something, sweet.
wow........
Re: Carthage is doing something, sweet.
THX FELLAS!!!! I fanaly got a pic
I just took the 2nd Main Land Karthadistim (sp) city, but I need to send in reinforcements. Karthadim's Armies are starting to build up (though still not even a 1/2 full stack) nearby. The bad news is that those FEW guys are all TOP NOTCH, but the good news is that its armies still have no Cavlary (other than the general), at least for now.
Also, Karthadist (sp) Navy is freaking blocking my ports and its ships are Very Strong. I still haven't been able to send reinforcements to the Invading full stack army, its been about 7 turns now. That army is now about 1/3 of its strenght, being supplemented by Numidian Cavalry (boy they carry a LOT of Javerlins) and finaly one of the Captians turned into a General. (now i can get some Mercenaries)
Oh and its only 230BC and I got about 26years before the refoms hit.

Re: Carthage is doing something, sweet.
So, sink 'em! This isn't vanilla, where the best ships you get are "warboats." The Aedui get some pretty decent ships from the higher-tier naval bases. Build up your fleet and show them Phoenician sailor-wannabes how it's done!
