      OOC... this is classic diplo stuff guys! As soon as one civ takes the lead the rest pounce

      The Greek strategy is really crazy when you think about it... a far reaching civ crashing military advance with long supply lines and most civs reacting against them...

      Makeo's post says it all...

            Seeing as how they have no technology, no means of new technology (beyond stealing 1 or 2 from the Carts) - and no apparent infrastructure; I'd have to agree.

            Spain officially calls for a Greek leader who hasn't been dropped on his head several times to come forward and aid this situation with leadership & creative realism! Something of intelligence and general meaning (beyond drooling terms such as "warmonger" at the situational defenders) is desperately needed!

                LOL! If you were Greeks and we weren't allied I'd say Rome, Gaul and Babylon would have already attacked you by now on three sides...

                Do you think Greeks strategic position is a smart one at this point?

                  • Political turmoil in Rome

                    There has been a change of government in Rome. Previously formed triumvirate (Crassus, Caesar, Pompey) is reduced by one third with the sudden death of Marcus Licinius Crassus, seven times consul in succession. He was killed while in a routine inspection of the border fortresses in a skirmish with the forces of renegade Gaul king Gary the Strat.
                    Crassus was a great admirer of Roman tradition, history and culture. He was a staunch opposition to any change of the status quo in the Mediterranean. He was strongly opposed to the Greek attempts at destruction of Carthage.

                    New elections were held in Rome and the senate chose elder Pompey the Great, a veteran of Roman politics as new consul over young Caius Iulius Caesar. Fearing the prosecution for his unlawful acts while in office, Caesar asked Pompey to appoint him as governor of a province, no matter how small, just to get the immunity and avoid criminal charges. Pompey now a full victor granted Caesar's wish and the senate elected Caesar as new proconsul of Cisalpine Gaul, a small province in the far north of the empire consisting of only 3 cities.

                    Pompey now without anyone to contest his power introduced profound changes to the political body of Rome. He abolished the voice of the people in all but name and strengthened the power of the senate. This senate was however not a democratically elected body but a mere instrument in Pompey's hands. He proclaimed himself Imperator and the new political system fascism.

                    • A personal note to the newly installed consul of Rome:

                      Wonder of wonders! I am awed and delighted to welcome you to the charter of world leaders! Allow me, on behalf of the people of Babylon, to extend fond congratulations on your recent victory in the Senate. I hope that this transition will allow for a new era of coorperation and glory for our two peoples!

                      Should you require anything, you know where to look. Until we speak in person, I am

                      Very truly yours,

                      Grottencrotch

                      • Cnaeus Pompeius Magnus is very pleased to receive the note from emperor Grottencrotch. Especially since this distinguished leader has been at the helm of distant Babylon for as long as anyone can remember.

                        Roman Imperator only requires one more thing from our good friend Grottencrotch: The secret of his longevity and, since he doesn't seem to have changed in millennia, possibly immortality.

                        • A hurried despatch from Rome suggested a peace treaty
                          ---
                          Rome brokered a last minute deal:

                          Peace for return of Cartenna
                          Carts get a tech or two from Rome
                          As do the Greeks

                          so it's settled Hannibull...
