    ssh, even the king now won't dare to call em moron, as they often got large contingents of gold chevroned bodyguards, while the king (excpt when they are Sweboz, king always on the frontline) only had 2 or 3 bronze

    Well, you could always put him on a fishing boat and send him away on an "anti-pirate expedition" if things become uncomfortable. ;)

    edit: (the king's cousin, not the king, of course :P)

    Hi:

    If you're interested in trying Carthage, and are new to EB, may I shamelessly plug my Carthage guide - which will walk you through the first few turns of the game and get you used to using ships to deploy troops.

    I disagree.

    I had to play a Hayasdan campaign 9 times before I was able to get past the first 15 turns. Backstabbing AS or remaining allied...whatever I did I would always end up n the situation where I had taken Kotais, Mtskheta and somewhere else while only just recovering financially when a random wandering full stack or a few half stacks of AS would turn up and take most of my territory.

    This happened without fail every single time and, aside from cheating, I could not be bothered to spend the dozens of turns building a functioning economy from one recently taken city and about 10k of debt.

    My final try on the otherhand I asked for peace form the AS and asked them to give me Karkhatiokerta..and they did, then they left me alone...
