Session V: 518 - 534 AUC
Carthage recovered quickly and allied with Macedonia it was able to wipe Rome completely. The celtic barbarian tribes added chaos and created 4 new tribal states in the plundered roman territory. The city of Rome itself has fallen and the goverment was forced to move to Epirus. To the east the alliance is still fighting with Seleucids in an undecided war. Pontus was left mostly at peace, save for the Egyptian and Arabian revolt, which was not supressed completely yet.

Undecided? The Seleucids are going down. When you're already at maximum war exhaustion, what do you have to lose?

The truth is Seleucids give my armies terrible bashing despite me having great leaders, morale, discipline and cohort mix. Cant say whats wrong ... for example one of their invading armies in my territory which was already heavily decimated to 2500 men and low on morale was still able to wipe my 12k fresh army with martial 9 general in few days inflicting heavy causalties
I told you, the Seleucids are the evil on this planet, the evil I say! Pontus shall recover Paphlagonia and bend them to their knees! After you decimated them of course.
Regarding the date and time of our next MPC session I suggest 2 options.
a. Monday 25th January @ 8pm CET (7pm GMT) (as usual)
b. this Thursday 21st January @ 8pm CET (7pm GMT)
I go for b. (but can make it even for a.)

Session VI: 534 - 546 AUC
Shielded by a Carthaginian invasion in the South, the Macedonians managed to push the Seleucids back in the North. The victories came at a high price, however, as the prolonged war gave way to dangerous ideas among the generals. One very treacherous general decided to betray his brethren, resulting in the Macedonian Civil War, which lasted for five years. The Macedonian government never doubted they would win, however, as the treacherous general in question was defeated by his own son in the Battle of Bithynia, which left the rebels with only a small number of troops. While sending armies to scourge the Macedonian empire of disloyal subjects, the Macedonian government also spared enough troops to defend the frontier against the Seleucids. In the meantime, the Carthaginians had gained the upper hand in the South. Pontus declared war on the Seleucids, and the enormous empire began to crumble. In the end, Carthage and Pontus managed to gain control over the whole region. Macedonia and Carthage then withdrew, after the Seleucids had agreed to ceding a number of provinces to Macedonia. Soon after that, a barbarian state, supported by Carthage, formed in the middle of the defeated empire. It is now up to Pontus to land the final blow on the ancestors of Seleucus.

I can't help it, Thursday is a no-no for me. I've promised to hang around with a couple of old friends then. Playing on Monday works fine, though - as usual.
Our next MPC session then:

Session VII: 546 - 570 AUC
Carthage liberated their ancient homeland of Phoenicia, annexed the City of Rome and colonized most of Hispania. After just another CW the enlightened ruler considers becoming Emperor or restituting the old republic.
Macedonia annexed several tribes without mercy. They upgraded into the Imperium but after another CW their technological progress falls behind seriously.
Pontus carves more and more provinces from the Seleucids including the magnificent City of Antioch and copes easily with the rebel states emerging here and there in the iron fist ruled provinces.

The king of Macedonia eventually died, almost 80 years old, leaving the crown for one of his two surviving sons. The son, aged only one year when he became ruler of the glorious empire, inherited his father's miraculous virility. At the age of six, he fathered his first son (with a woman twenty years older). He also proclaimed himself emperor, and organised a number of expeditions to the Italian peninsula. There, the Macedonian army defeated Italics and Gauls alike.
During this period, the Macedonians brought civilisation to the distant lands of the Dacians. It is only a matter of time before the Macedonian colonisation results in one, continuous track of land, stretching from Narborensis in the West to Sarmatia in the East.
