Is it possible to reach that area?

Is it possible to reach that area? i have marked that area with 2 arrows on the maps...

[Entropy Judge]

Yes.

...
Oh, you want directions? Send that army to the west, cross the river, and follow it to the north. If you have a Diplomat/Spy, he should make it in ... three, maybe four turns. Oh, and the Rebels up there are Amazon Chariots, and I think that they can also have Yubtseb elephants, but I'm not sure and I've never seen them.

[Valerius Tiberius]

indeed
it's called "Thermiskyra" or something, that's where the amazons live

just bring some spear units (phalanx preferably) , cause i see you're thrace that shouldn't be a problem
and some archer units, if you have luck, you'll face only some units of amazon chariots, if you have bad luck, a full stack or something will be waiting

people always say it's so hard, but i never had trouble with them

have fun!

[Scutarii]

Its not hard to get the city, its keeping it thats the problem.... tons of unrest, not very profitable its a useless city in game terms. Have fun.

[Valerius Tiberius]

i don't understand everyone has such problems with capturing and keeping that city, i never had any problems with that

[kkaana]

i have reached the area and my armies destroyed by their armies. I have to build more powerful armies to beat that bastards.

im also in a war with romans and britons and i think im a lil bit overextended...

the easy way to beat them is just using tons of infantry and archers. The chariots can be pinched by infantry that way and wont get out and stomp more of your guys.
And beware that chariots beats cavalry totally.

They have beaten me for 3 times and Im getting angry now....

at last i made it. it s too hard to capture that city...

[Nebuchadnezzar]

Beware, the Amazons are laying in ambush. Use a spy to see them and sidestep them. Use archers and a high influence general to take the city. Exterminate to reduce unrest. High influence govenor should be able to maintain unrest until stabilized. Never had problems myself.

There are no elephants in a vanilla game.

LOL.. and again
There are no Yubsteb elephants in an unmodded game

[D.B. Cooper]

I simply never bothered to capture. I believe it's 2 or so years of marching to get there...for one town? And Yubtseb elephants put me off of an expedition there as well , lol.

O... M... G...

Carthage is still alive!

İ have given them lots of money to keep them alive...

[Roman_Wolf]

i never had problems with that city. Only the long march to it is annoying.

I can't believe you let the advisor govern your cities.....that's MADNESS I tell you!

i have never listen to her, she is just talking there.

There are cogs on the city info-bar, which means that 1) There is no governor there, and 2) You have the game set to auto-manage cities. Generally, it's not a good thing, as the AI isn't particularly bright.

My opinion exactly. OP, think about managing your cities individually. Doesn't take too long. It's worth it.

[Toorima]

I auto-resolved that thing without paying much attention to it. :hmmm:
