I think the opposite of ulterior is citerior. The opposite of inferior is superior.

Looks like it's MAP_REGIONS.tga he coloured.

My bad, I mixed those two together...

Seems to me that in 1.1 AI Makedonia almost always loses out to either KH or Epeiros. In my game even with me (Epeiros) out of Greece, they still don't seem to be able to actually beat KH. Why is that?

Impressive, the Ptolies still holds Kilikia after 50 years into the game. Usually, if the Ptolies hold Kilikia at that time, they have either conquered half of the map, or has just defeated the AS.

232 BC
I have force diplomacy, but didn't use it.

I Like the expansion of all factions(except maybe Makedonia and Hayasdan)
Romani expansion into Germania is really out of the complicated alliances in Gaul, they recently encroached upon my German Province, sending a full stack full of Extraordinarii and Ligurians, basically the best stuff they had in the area. I somehow managed to scrap up a bunch of mercenaries, low end levies, and some Belgae spearmen.
I pretty much eviscerated the entire roman war machine, scoring multiple heroic victories with sad crappytastic troops.
At the same time a small army of about 4 Gaelich and Slingers took Masilia, and 2 huge armies are going around Iberia to invade them from the sea.

Best Expansion I've seen so far with Pontos, taking all of the coastal rebel cities and building up a great economy
Iberia is in great shape, with 3 Large cities and about 3 full-stack armies, I'm allied with them(when they invaded Gaul and declared war on Aedui it gave me a reason to take the entire northern coast. Not really sure why they haven't taken Baikor...

225 BC
The 3 armies invaded Italy at the same time, overwhelming the romans in about 2 years, would've been much faster if it weren't for their powerful and cheap armies that number in the tens of stacks...

The Lusotana managed to take even more of Gaul, declaring war on the Arverni and..giving me an excuse to eliminate them.
The Aedui managed to hold out a bit longer against The Arverni, Lusotana, roving Roman straglers, and of course me, through a rebellion and a lucky 16 year old sucessor in Tolosa, then of course the 2 main armies of the Luso's destroyed them.

Epirus gets kicked out of Italy pretty soon in 1.1, they have the resources to fully concentrate on marching on Pella and Illyria, making life a Hell for AI-controlled Macedonia.

In most of my 1.1 campaigns Epeiros uses its Nellies to take Pella in the first turn and often Serdike in the second turn. Then the Maks are screwed. I have seen them coming back sometimes, if they manage to take Pergamon or if they can grab Athens early on.
