Just like their western buddies they must lose so that you gain. Libya will make large groups of slingers and spearmen and send them off to sea to fight with various Romans and Greeks if you let them. Usually i declared war on Egypt and the desert dwellers as soon as I could and hoped for the best. Getting Libya killed is more challenging but still possible. Should your allies defeat their initial enemy pull an Iraq on them and drag them into a war with more neighbors until they lose, leaving you with a clean reputation when you reconquer them. they will give you the 15 turns you need to tech up on swordsmen,elephants and heavy cavalry that will allow you to reconquer those lands. 9 out of 10 your friends will lose, but their sacrifice was not wasted.

I suggest evacuating the area entirely and letting the various barbarians slug it out with your client state. The AI will magically recruit entire hordes of mercenary swordsmen that you have no hope of defeating.

Your position in Iberia is at best temporary. They may be you friends but they have to die so that you can have power. Attacking them to gain territorial unity will hurt your reputation. While the income they bring you is negligible and their armies are pathetic they are your closest friends.

It will take at least 10 turns until you can muster a force that can defeat a full stack while the AI would gladly exploit your weakness.īut Carthage starts with two client states that border it directly. Their settlements are very spread out and each one rests on a different province. It's time to refill the opening moves guide section and i wanted to give Carthage a first class seat.Īfter several campaigns it seems like there are no clear-cut opening moves that will give you any real and repeatable advantage if you follow them.Īs a grown-up you should make two cruel decisions-Abandon your friends and sell out your national pride.Ĭarthage's starting position is very weak and they have arguably the weakest starting units in the game.
