I was playing a Macedon Campaign as well. Huge unit size, 0-turn, H/VH. My goal was to make Philip V the new Alexander by reconquering all the territories of the old empire. I had to rush Greece, Thrace, Asia Minor and Egypt. As a result my economic situation is a bit worse signified by recession traits. Philip V, now 40 years old, gained the Nicator and Hierax traits and was on his way to gain the "Conqueror of Egypt" trait when an earthquake hit the region he was in at the time and killed him and all my veteran silver chevron units down to 5 men per unit. Nabatea if I remember correctly. Since then I lost the will to continue the campaign. No pictures but I might take some when I continue it. I'd probably cheat and move Philip V out of that dangerous region.

cool, sad that he died though, how did you manage to take that many areas before he became 40 years old? do you have the garisson script disabled? i believe my phillip V is around 60, and all i got is whole greece and italy
Before I left Pella, or rather Philip left Pella, He had siege engines with him. I had to rely on mercenaries when my army gets depleted and I never stay more than 1 turn in a city and had to rely on small garrisons of 1 unit per city. As I said, I had to rush the game.My gameplay style is a leftover from my old experiences with RTW Alex.
This is a short overview of my campaign with the Kingdom of Pontus. I took over all of Pergamum and than went for Athenai with my Ptolemy Ally. But the Seleucids have a big army near my eastern border with Cata Elephants and declared war on me 1 turn ago
What should I do now?

if rome is your enemy you shoud take olympia from them end defend greece, take crete and take on seluecids,thats what i probably do
nice kingdom you have there
Here is my Bosporan Kingdom on H/H with 4 tpy script. Very epic fights against the HA hordes from Sarmatia, but beat them pretty good with my HA and Noble Heavy Cav.
Carthage 600auc 1turn alec h/h i think. Trying to recreate my empire from RS1.5, and have so far proved to be quite the challenge.
Having to build a full set of new barracks in order to retrain/recruit new soldiers in the conquered territories takes alot of time and money.
So it's slowing my progress down, I would've want to conquer the whole world but every turn takes longer then the one before.
Going to try and blitz through gaul and maybe settle with it. Not to keen to go against Pergamon who is holding their own against the Seleucids, and
Dacia is just waiting for me to overstep my boundaries so they can attack me.
Here is my Spartan game with the biggest claims that I ever had,
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
This is my expansion plan:
I first took over Greece, my initial plan was to go slow but it seems that the Macedonians didn't agree so I had to take their cities :p After that I destroyed Pegamon (once again because I got attacked), when I was almost done with Pegamon the Plotemaic Empire attacked me so I took their cities near to me and sent a big army to take over Egypt, by this time the Plotemaic Empire controlled most of the future "Holy Land" so I took it too. Now the Romans are knocking at my door and they are proving to be harder to defeat but I'm slowly managing to beat them. I currently have two main armies that are taking the Roman claims north of Greece and I sent other army to take over Sicily. The plan as show above is to destroy Rome, annex what's left of the Seleucid, take those Greek cities north of Turkey and then take Carthage. After that I might take Spain and France. I'm mostly trying to recreate the Roman Empire as Sparta.

Nice empires guys, keem 'em coming.
About the frontier lines , john duca, it is quite easy, you need to modify the descr_sm_factions in the data folder of the different factions campains.
so here is my new dacian horde campaign.
first of i made myself six armys 1 elite stack,2medium stacks,1 horse stack and 2 reserve stacks
my first plan was to go to spain and make that my new homeland,but than i have to go to all the european rebel citys and probebly never seen anything of spain so i did go to egypt, all the way trough asia minor and syria sacking the ptolomain citys( lost 1 army on the way east)and avoided pergamon en seleucid armys, now im in ptolomai haertlands laying siege on alexandria,thebes and one other.there king lost the first battle against my horsestack(4carpatian heavy cav,11 sythian horsearchers,5 light cav),my elite stack is garding the bridge near alex against one full stack and 1/3 stack of their elite army.my financials are realy bad(-200000) and i need to take these city or im not gonna live long anymore,the garrisonscript filled their citys with good armys. here are some pics
