The war agaisnt the Carthagians has been the most interesting yet and has led to a wider central, southern european war as Carthage try the move their armies against me.
I managed to beat of the intital 3 stacks they sent against south Italy but as i was retraining my legion they quickly built up smaller armies and took the Rhegion, Taras and Arpi. So i quickly built up anothern half stack army, and with my fully retrained legion i lauched a major counter-attack, this coincided with Taras rebelling back to me(a huge bit of luck!) so i was quickly able to regain control of Southern Italy!
At the same time, Sweboz betrayed the Averni and attacked them, as did Carthage, forcing the Gauls to ally with me. Thus creating two warring factions in europe The Central Powers (Averni+Romani) Vs The Empire Alliance (Sweboz+Carthage)
I recently managed to subdue the Getai and force them into a ceasefire with only two cities left so I now have another legion on their way to kick Carthage out of their med islands, while keeping another in Greece to keep the provinces secure!
