It's odd though, I did a Rome campaign with 1.5 and the fight for Sicily was downright bitter, I mean they were actually pushing me back at times and (I was trying). This time they havn't made any advances and I don't see any armies near Carthage or Lilibeum(sp?), but then I didn't before and they produced 2 stacks out of nowhere to take the islands back. We'll see what they do after I take Syracusa. Loving Bi.
The problem with carthaginean Sicily and the roaming little tsorim stacks in Italy, wandering and trying to reach Iberia by land, are explained by the landbridge in the Messanna Strait.

I humbly ask to remove it.

If the AI wouldn`t interprete that Sicily is part of the continent, thus forming part of the same landmass on which is Iberia, thus trying to send reinforcements to Sicily, from Iberia, by land, thus rendering the island defenseless cuz of the delay of reinforcements...



...then the AI would send ships with reinforcements from carthage itself.

So, plz remove that landbridge. It`s causing trouble.

And perhaps, it may also cause problems with the carthaginean AI stacks in Iberia (they usually have 1 full stack in Hercules Columns, near Gadir, just sitting there). Dunno how the remotion of the landbridge in Sicily would affect something that happens in Gadir, but it`s worth trying...

Cheers!!!!
