I'm in quite an interesting position as Epirus at the moment, hopefully someone will have some fun with it.
Epirus, 263 BCE
Having won a costly victory against the Spartan-Athenian alliance, Pyrrhus of Epirus finds his holdings split. Although their alliance with Macedon has been fruitful, the Epirotes remain bitter about the loss of Larissa. With Greece consolidated, Pyrrhus now looks to the west. Pyrrhus has reclaimed the Greek lands in Italy after a lengthy campaign against Rome. Having recently repelled a Roman assault on Brundisium, now may be the time to push further into Italy. After a successful war in Illyria however, Rome is now able to fully focus on the southern threat. Pyrrhus has punished the Syracusans for aiding Rome, but unwilling to overextend his forces, he has left them vulnerable for a Carthaginian takeover. The Syracusan navy still prowls the Adriatic Sea however, searching for any sign of weakness. Meanwhile in Greece, new threats begin to emerge. The Odrysian Kingdom has united the Thracian tribes and now seeks to push into Macedonia. Across the Aegean, Rhodes coordinates an attack with Odrysia, seeking to strike at Greece's soft underbelly. To the east, the Ptolemies continue to expand and eye Macedonia as their next target. Will Epirus stand by their beleaguered allies or seize the chance to become hegemons of Greece?
