So you wish to figth the romans as Macedon?
This task will not be easy sence 4 factions are romans and are loyal brothers in arms to other romans. Fist we must take a look at your Kingdom.
Your Kingdom is fairly rich but has a weakness in infantry compared to Hoplites in the early stages but you have the best light cavalry in the world along with good heavy cavalry in the beginning.
First you must build up baracks at your capital so that you have decent infantry that can delay your opponent long enough for your cavalry to hammer and anvil your opponents to the death.
Indeed stay calm and prepare for your mission never rush to a war against a opponent that you know little about!
First before the great war begins we must secure our flanks so Athen must be taken first build up baracks so you can replace your losses.
This is because you will need experience in street battles so that you can keep going with momentum and strenght.
Once you have retrained your good infantry and cavalry Sparta is next. Here you will face superior infantry that exells in bottlenecks but only in bottlenecks. Even spartans are vulnerble for flank and rear attacks.
So lets starve them and force them to sally their infantry and cavalry will be devided and a massive infantry assault against the gates will rout any unit that goes through that gate just remember to attack both flanks and the fronts to massacre them and then withdraw a little bit now repeat!
The reason you should do this is that the computer only sends 1 infantry unit out from the city at a time in order to stay organised to crush them before they are ready will greatly minimise casulties.
If they do not sally congratulations you have gained a city without bloodshed but blood is requied so exterminate and then uppgrade baracks if they havent already!
Whats going on with the romans?
We dont know we must send spies to inform us on what they are doing sence we dont use cheats we fight with honur!
The Julii is problably establishing a powerbase in italy and prepares for a war against the Gaullic towns that borders them the. Julii never attacks without first building up economic and military buildings so they have a balance of troops and a good steady income just in case!
The Brutii well they are expanding into Greece and lets 2 small towns taste the benefit of roman rule after that Thermon is their next prey!
Why?Because the Julii have by know captured Patavium and by capturing Thermon the Roman factions gets an increased income by sea trade along with tax and other money making things!
The Brutii worship war and has experienced troops from the beginning but no established military buildings it will take some time to get those buildings and then produce units but once they have started they will not stop untill they are the masters of the world.
The Scipii has captured Syracuse and with it all Roman factions gets more income by sea trade and soon Lilybaeum will fall with more sea trade to the romans.
The Roman way of war
The roman figths with swords and javelins they are more flexible and mobile than a fhalanx unit. The romans know that a fhalanx head on is virtuallly invulnerble so they are going to outflank you with heavy infantry along with cavalry to break your cavalry that is the decisive arm of your army.
They will then attack your fhalanx units from the rear and flanks sence your sarissas will not be effektive anywhere but from the front and sence their lenght and the ability that 5 rows can figth in the same time also is a protektion your troops will die like flies from these attacks if your not ready!
In the center they will count on that their generals inspiration shall keep their center units from breaking.
