Empire Time - Turn 10 (260-250 BC)

Situation in 260 BC

This turn marks the halfway point, and will see the first lot of victory points added to the peoples' starting totals, which were 12 for the Carthaginians and Parthians, thanks to their past imperial success, but nothing for the Romans and Macedonians.

First the revolt dice land 4-6, meaning Sicilia expels the Carthaginians.

Andy is yet again drawn first, and yet again fails to free his Parthia homeland.

I attack newly independent Sicilia, but again narrowly fail to take it, rolling a 3.

Richard's Macedonians pull off a coup by capturing double-scoring 'INDIA'.

Finally, Reg's Carthaginian fleet is destroyed at sea as it leads an attempt to retake Sicilia.

Halfway through, and the Macedonians and Carthaginians seem to be doing well
