Unable to attack

Maybe you need more than the Scipii? If they are most popular, the people would want them to rule the world, not you?

Hi

You are a few regions short of the total I had when 'chance for power' message occured. Looks like around 30...I had around 33-35. Popularity with the people needs to be a bit higher I think.

I suggest a spy/assassin offensive against Brutii/Scipii regions that are adjacent to yours and distant from Italy. Find those already low on public order due to distance from capital penalties. Your spies will cause additional unrest in the city lowering public order (-5% for every 'eye' of spy skill). Assassin to destroy temple and you force public order into the riot zone (<70%) . Be ready to send an army to capture the city if/when it rebels.

Good luck.

Thanks for alll your help and suggestions. I think this game is a wash, as I still can't get the alliance with the Brutii removed, or attacke them without the message appearing. Sigh..... ah well, just gonna have to try again. Maybe if I try the unwashed Gauls... just to get a taste of something different.
