Four Go To War - Turn 15 (210-200 BC)

Situation at the end of turn 14

The revolt dice land 5-2, so Cisalpina throws off Carthaginian rule.

This is the first of two turns in which Richard's Romans have Scipio as a great commander.

He starts by conquering Sicilia, but it requires two campaigns to subdue independent Cisalpina, although then both Gallia and IBERIA fall to Roman arms, meaning that for the first time in this game Carthage has no possessions outside of North Africa.
