Same here!

And with early or late losses Babylon x 3, Persia x 5, Lydia, Egypt x2, Sparta x 3, Athens x 2, Rome x 2, Macedon.

I played Massilia for a challenge. It was real challenge. Finally, I had to bail out.

I managed to get 3 provinces and hold the mountain back bone. But I really needed the income for 2 strong armies, but could only maintain 1. My alliance will Rome saved me a couple of times.

Because of the mountains moving an army could take 3-4 turns ...

It was an interesting exercise of which I learned much.

The mountains are very defensible, but attrition will ultimately do you in if you do not have a base of income.
