Interesting . . . I like the idea of an "expeditionary force" . . . pillaging its way down (or up) the eastern med seaboard . . . lots of greeks to squash there!

I'm also in a pretty good spot, border-wise . . I just acquired a border with Pontus when they took Nicea last turn . . . and with Hay when I took Olbia (also last turn). The rest of my borders are eleutheroi, so it's unlikely any of the major powers are going to attack me. The Romans have been throwing small (4-6) stacks at Segestica for the last decade or so . . . I expect when they finally take it, the resulting border will lead them to attack me.
