I fought hard with myself about taking Jerusalem. It was really tempting, but I think, patience is better in this case.

I made a mistake clicking too fast. So I have to post the save game directly.

About Jerusalem - holding Antiochia wasnt the problem. I simulated that situation. But Greek had the chance to get strong and that’s something I wanted avoid.

Another question:
I am already 30 production behind. I know I could have held - or reconquered - Sardinia if I moved right. But 30 already is quite a difference. What went wrong on my side? Or is this normal and will change now with the fall of Sicilia and the downsizing of Greece? It doesnt seem so, as at the same time Seleucia also looses income to Parthia.

And here the move of Carthage.

The game is set up so that Romans are on the defensive in the west and seleucs in the east. Seleucia changing hands alone is a swing of 20 in production, Carthage side doesn’t have as easy gains early on and for that reason might be bit more challenging to play, but i still consider the map quite balanced, though I can’t claim to know all the optimal moves…

But the main question remains: did I make any serious mistakes that put me at such disadvantage? There is still an income gap of about 20. Or is it normal?

@Ajmdemen:

I didn’t spot any serious mistakes (apart from the Athens rnd 1 mayhaps).

But in that case the map is seriously unbalanced. A difference of 10 to 20% of income and the only one major mistake was not to punish bad dicing luck and one small mistake leads to that conclusion for me.

Of course I can see a few mistakes on my side

• Sicilia could be taken one turn earlier (or least Greece could be denied to retake Syracuse one turn earlier) - not much difference.
• Seleucia has to force the fall of Salamis / Cyprus - nice difference.

I just try to understand this map.
