Empire 3: Turn 12 (240-230 BC)

Situation in 240 BC

The revolt dice(4-1) see Bactria throw off Persian rule. 

Andy is drawn first, and he changes tactics by attacking Cisaplina, only to fail with a 2.

The Carthaginians boldly attack Sicilia, perhaps thinking Roman attention is directed elsewhere. The naval crossing is no problem as 6 is rolled, but the land attack fails on a 4, thanks to a -1 modifier for attacking outside of the original Carthaginian empire.

The Macedonians attack independent Syria, but roll 3.

I also attack Syria, but also roll 3, so another decade has passed without a change in the map.

[I got this wrong - the updated map should show Bactria independent.]
