Romani, 230 BC in 0.81a v2


Lusotannan were expanding into eleutheroi settlements early and at a good pace, while Carthage were stalling after losing Sicily to me early on. Later, Lusotannan took the opportunity to grab a Carthaginian city in Spain while I was beating them in a premature 2nd Punic war. After that, Lusotannan took most of the rest of Spain and started advancing into Gaul fast.
Carthage then started slowly taking eleutheroi cities in Africa.

Aedui lost Mediolanum to me around 260, and then they were slugging it out with Arverni for supremacy in Gaul. I eventually allied with them, but did not assist them in slowly beating the Arverni and making them a protectorate. I did assist them once Lusotannan began conquering Gaul with multiple stacks containing huge amounts of elite troops, especially Dosidataskeli. I went to war with Lusotannan, gave some Gaul cities back to Aedui, raided others and kept a few for myself.

Sweboz have been gobbling up eleutheroi like there's no tomorrow. I decided to take some of their cities in the northern Balkans to make sure they didn't invade Greece. Ever since, they have been sending a steady stream (well, torrent) of stacks at me.

Getai are not moving at all. I have tried to ally with them and give them a city to get started, but they won't accept and I'm not using forced diplomacy (yet).

Epeiros were sending all their forces into Italy early on, but still lost against my legions. Since then they have been quite static, but eventually took Thermon.

KH defeated Makedonia very early on and made them a protectorate. They then expanded into Thrace and crossed into Asia Minor where they made Pontos a protectorate and recently took a city from AS.

Pontos were expanding early on, but were easily crushed by KH.

Hayasdan have taken a few eleutheroi settlements, not been in any major wars.

Sauromatae only expanded very, very slowly.

Pahlava and Saka Rauka both took some eleutheroi cities early, and since then they have been battling back and forth for control of the northeastern corner of the map.

Baktria expanded very well early on, but around 240 the AS started gobbling them up, and their days are certainly numbered now.

Saba expanded at a nice rate, and have been battling back and forth against the Ptolemies.

Ptolemies expanded in Syria, Asia Minor and into the AS heartland early on. But recently, AS have been pushing them back on every front, while they havent been able to subjugate Saba.

AS took some eleutheroi cities early on, and then began a decline, losing many cities to the Ptolemies and others, both in Asia Minor, Syria and towards Babylonia. But recently, they have rebounded strongly and are advancing on almost every front, especially against Baktria and the Ptolemies.
