    Pergamon! Go to Pergamon! There are mines right from the start. Do not bother around with Galatians or the Greeks in Sinope. Get all your men together, take Nikaia and then head immediatly south. There is a strong army defending the region, so you'll better use all your starting money to hire some good mercs, for example naked fanatics.

    Afterwards, provided there are some men left in your army, go for Byzantion; the forces there are very weak. After that you should disband all not needed men and start saving money to build mines in the other towns. After that start building up your empire.

    You should use the next occasion to get Ipsos, Mazaka and Sardis form AS. After that you are basicly the master of Asia Minor. With all the mines build around you can also afford the luxery of a mercenary army. Hire them when needed in large numbers in one turn and disband them afterwards to boost your cities even further.
