With last turn's aggressors driven off, the map has not changed.
Turn 4, however, sees Some unexpected activity - the Kingdom of Pontus has become active, and is now shown on the board by an orange diamond.
216 - Carthage at last moves, no doubt troubled by Rome's venture into Carthage's sphere of influence. Led by a young-go getter called Hannibal, the Carthaginans are welcomed by the Iberians and urged to continue on to attack the Romans, which they cross the Alps to do. Some of the Gauls pledge to support the Carthaginians and Rome must ready itself for another campaign.
215 - Carthage vs Rome in Cisalpine Gaul. Carthage can use Numidians, Iberians, and Gauls to supplement its citizen army.
213 - Macedon attacks Greece after one demand and one arrogant response too many. Will Rome support Greece? Not at this time - they are occupied with their own wars.

Love the map. Simple but effective. I must go back to the beginning of this campaign.

Thanks Chris, yes, went for simple - crude, even!
DeleteThe map is simple, yes, but works as we all know what it means 👍 - Are the yellow hexes desert and can they be crossed?
ReplyDeleteThanks MJT, it must be achieving its purpose then! Yes, desert, and that's right, can't be crossed. Cheers!
