The siege of Taras ended with Epeiros withdrawing to deal with a Quarthadast army in Sicily. So my reinforcements marched south-west to Rhegion and captured it after destroying the relief force. The rest went smoothly from there and now my troops are laying siege to Syracuse. And it must have been after the capture of Rhegion or Lilbeo, but my phalanx troop are now available!!! And I didn't even get the March of Time event. Perhaps it's because I captured Southern Italy?
Here's the screen from my empire, taken a few minutes ago.
Muhahahahaha, beware Roma and Pontos! Here's comes da Phalanx!
