Hey guys,

I like to play defence. Build a sizable empire, defend it and maintain diplomatic relations with the other viable countries as well as messing with the politics here and there with an assasin or a plague ridden spy.

I am now playing a Julii long campaign where i gave up my position in Italy and conquered Egypt at the start of the game, expanded my empire and now am defending it.

Northwestern provinces (scythian lands) bordered by the Dieneper river where i place huge stacks to defend the bridges.

Western Border, i cover the whole of asia minor and including Byzantium (so i control entry to the black sea)

South Westernmost provinces include Cyrene and Libya

Everything east of these holdings are mine. Which is quite good since i own like 6/7 of the wonders and my Capital sited at Antioch.

Then basically i sack other factions and transfer their populations to my city at their expense so i can tech up and i spend most of my time sacking and upgrading my cities.

You guys know of any other defendable areas?
