You know, if you should save and reload and forget just where you are supposed to send your troops.

Can we have Timeline Specific Missions that encourages players to expand more realistically and guide newer plays on how to take over their victory cities?

For example, Rome -> Southern Italy -> Sicily -> Illyria, Hispania, Po -> Makedonia -> Asia -> N.Africa -> Asia, Gaul -> Egypt.

Or something....

KH would be -> Liberate Corinth -> Invade Thes. -> Pella -> Unite the Asian and Italian Colonies ...etc

Ahh, that would be nice, and does the AI use those missions, then you could have a nice AI that doesn't go for Siberia always.

Maybe this will be a cure for Hayasdan's Steppitis.

On the other hand, it's not desirable to railroad the expansion patterns too much. Historically, Rome attacked Sicily before cisalpine Gaul, however this may not have happened if Carthage had secured Sicily earlier.

Well, no one has to follow those missions, its just for the new guys and the people how want to play historically sometimes. I mean, you already have the 1st Punic War trigger.

True, but I was mostly replying to those who suggested it could be used to guide A.I. expansion.
