well they have elephonts lots of archers slingers and im dirt poor i have 2 citys under seige let by hannible segesta is under seige by the gauls but some good news i have carthage under seige in italy i got 5 units of town watch and thats it.

OK, from that I suggest you disband unwanted units like a few of those town watch, and recruit velites.
OK, you have segesta undersiege by the Gauls, what are the forces like/ your garrison?

Arretium/Ariminum under siege by Hannibal?

Is this some kind of a mod?

Where are you sieging carthage in Italy?

Wait, this is a mod isn't it. a united Rome? In this case forget about sieging Carthage, try to relieve a sige then you can use the fdreed up forces to relieve the other town. Forget about segesta. yeah you need vlites for ellies, lots of cav (4/5 units) will work wonders. Just try to wear them down and remember, once you have dealt with the two stacks plus beaten the Gauls back past the river, it will die down.

carthage under seige in italy

I think he means Tarsus or whatever Tarentum used to be. I'm playing SPQR-TW at minute, settlement names tend to change but the general strategy remains

Ah that's probably it, but surely even more reason to get those men back to help break the sieges of his own cities?

Keep up caravel

well, carthage should not be of big threat, their infantry is weak, and the hoplites arnt that good, but BEWARE THE ELEPHANTS!, these beasts will apsolutly(sorry bad spelling) tear your units apart.i suggest sending a about 2 archers,6 hastati,3 calvary, and 2 triarii, they should then crush the carthage armies, good luck!

Indeed, good suggestion there. I'm not sure if he can train all those troops though.

[caravel]

You have Carthage under siege yet your homelands are being over run? Get those men home as soon as possible!
