Epeiros, VH/M, 232 BC, ALEX.exe



Epeiros: After taking Hellas and developing my infrastructure for a while, I built two massive fullstacks to invade Egypt to counter the growing power of the Ptolemies. After taking most of the area, one of them is on its way back to Ambrakia, Kydonia and Pella for retraining and the other is garrisoning various settlements while one of my generals pushes for the last two Ptolemaic Egyptian holdings with mercs.

Macedon: Unwittingly eliminated by me during the siege of Corinth in 270 - I killed three FMs in the battle and saw their other two settlements (Chalkis and Mytilene) turn Eleutheroi immediately afterwards. Oh well.

KH: Wouldn't stop landing stacks of 3-4 men in the Peloponnesus and attacking me, so I got fed up and took Rhodes, their last settlement some time ago.

AS: Were starting to get out of control early on, so I gave some money to the Parthians, Baktrians and Pontics to help fight them. Now they're little more than a number of disjointed states, although I have a feeling they'll hold on in Anatolia.

Baktria: Declared war on the AS about twenty-five years ago and proceeded to steamroll them. Pressed right ahead and took Babylon and Seleukia from the north before taking Karmana, Persepolis, and Charax. Currently eliminating Seleucid holdouts in Susa and starting a war with the Hayasdan.

Parthia: Were invading AS but were cut off by the fast expansion of Baktria, so they decided to go for the steps instead. Have several fullstacks marching around Chighu and Gava-Haomavarga, so it looks like the Saka's days are numbered.

Saka: Getting owned by the Parthians.

Ptolemaioi: Fought a number of back-and-forth wars with the Seleucids in the Levant, and despite my financial aid to the ailing AS were just starting to make progress when I invaded them. They're about to be kicked out of Egypt entirely.

Hayasdan: Somehow got a ceasefire with the Sauromatae and invaded the AS, signing the Seleucid death warrant. Were just attacked by Baktria, though.

Saba: Completely boring, have sat in idleness for many years now.

Arverni: Destroyed by the Aedui as always, sitting pretty with one settlement.

Aedui: Were doing fine until inexplicably they became a Roman protectorate (why does this always happen?), and now they're fighting standstill wars with the Sweboz.

Romaioi: Have made Aedui a protectorate and decided to expand along the coast. Currently engaging in a number of on-off wars with the Lusotanna and Carthaginians.

Carthage: Almost done subjugating Africa, occasionally fighting Rome along the way.

Lusotanna: Can't even conquer Iberia.

Sweboz: Fighting the Aedui and the central European superheros with no real results.

Casse: Idle as always.

Sauromatae: Fighting the Getai and occasionally taking Kallatis and attacking me.

Getai: Thankfully expanding north and west instead of south and attacking me.

Pontos: Fighting Seleucids and seemed to be carving a decent kingdom for themselves in Anatolia until Amaseia was taken, now trying to retake it for the past ten years.
