Empire 3: Turn 17 (190-180 BC)

Situation in 190 BC

For the rest of the game Rome gets a +1 modifier for having had a great captain no more than five turns ago, and its customary +1 modifier from turn 11 onwards when not having a great captain.

The revolt dice (6-2) see Gallia throw off newly established Roman rule.

Carthage is drawn first but Richard fails to roll the necessary 6 to free his homeland.

Andy is next up. He elects to ignore the revolt in Gallia and instead attacks Graecia, easily completing the naval crossing with a 4 but failing in the land campaign with a 1.

The Macedonians conquer AEGYPTUS, which had managed to maintain its independence for most of the whole game.

I immediately isolate the Macedonians in AEGYPTUS by conquering Syria.

The Romans will have to expand east quickly if they are to overhaul my Persians
