    Default What should I do?

    I'm the Julli. Given my situation should I attack the Iberians (Spain) or the Britons? Are the Iberians usually weak enough that I should concentrate my good generals near Briton soil? The Britons presently have 2 of my cities under siege but I think I can hold them off with my 7 star general. Plus, I can get more soldiers from local cities for support. So what do you think, excluding the siege situation?

    Yep, crush the brits first, then go after the Spainards. I would watch the Brutii in Greece though They have alot of resources there, and they will charge into you once you go to war with senate.
    You can try to take Briton and Spain at the same time if you want. If you have the resources nothing can stop you.
    Good luck man

    Trade with Spain. Make war on the Brits; at least until you've shoved them off the continent. Then clean up on Spain.

    It might just be me, but I have never felt threatened by Spain. They are not particularly aggressive, their military poses no problems for Roman troops, and their ability to produce troops falls off rapidly after you take any two or three settlements. I've always had a much harder time against Gaul, Briton, Germania, Greece, Egypt, and Roman factions.

    Yep, what everyone here says: go for the Brits, I've never seen Spain go berzerk either. Well...maybe once, they kicked Carthage out of Spain

    Hi

    I think the same but have different motives. This is the Imperial campaign right. So your strategic game plan? ...which 50 regions are you going for ?

    I suggest you want the western end of the map. Includes northern europe...all the German lands, Dacia, Gaul, Britian, Spain, Western Africa then up through Carthage and Sicilly.

    Counting the regions up you need to beat Brutii to those German lands. You then have a reliable Brutii ally on your eastern flank. Then kill the Brits and claim all their regions. Wipe them out. You have another secure flank. If you havnt already started then its the fight for Spain>Africa>Sicilly>Civil war.

    Good luck and enjoy.

    You need to build up your armies, maybe two ir three more fullstacks, and then blitz the Brits in N.Europe. After this, set up a naval blockade of their home islands and send 3/4 of your armies south to fight the Iberians. Be prepared for a long and bloody war of they have the ability to make Bull Warriors, but defensive tactics usually work best. Maybe a war of atrition?
