Are alliances assymetric? In the Illyria row he is allied with me but I am not allied with Illyria in the Bosporan row. Is this a mistake?

Hey Billgber, I dont need to declare war again vs Celtic L do I?, just need to move back in? (although I dont see the point as they sprouted another full size army whre as mine was 2 aps short of cell division)

a mistake sorry, all alliance, as war are symmetric of course

war declaration in 276BC

All Celtic land will be in flame as

Spanish tribes declare war to Celte L
Briton declare war to Celte L
Illyria declare war to Celte H

otherwise in the east, Seleucia declare war to Parthe.

move order 276BC

move result are:

Celtic L will fight again Celtic H
Celtic H have been invade by Illyria, so a second battle for TheGrayMouser in his capital province.
a third battle for TheGrayMouser for Pergame.

Ptolemaic and Carthage will fight again but this time in Ptolemaic province.
Bosporan continue is Pontic conquest
and they will be the first battle between Seleucia and Parthe.

some move have been blocked.
Briton invasion.
Roman occupation of sicily,
Illirian conquest of Paionian.

Rome, Carthage, Spanish, Macedonia have a cassus belli again Epire, following Sicilly ocupation
Ptolemaic have a cassus belli again Macedonia, following Crete/Chypre ocupation
Pergame have a cassus belli again Armenia following Kappadocia ocupation
Illyria have a cassus belli again Bosporan following Paionia ocupation

A Casus belli permit to declare war or to break alliance without any alliance penalty.
Casus belli permit also to declare war immediatly to an allied.

Why does the Roman army stop movement into Sicily? Why do we not battle?

Epire move first and Rome was not at war again Epire.
Next turn you will be able to declare war to Epire as you have a cassus belli

Likewise, Illyrian move...why do the two armies not end up fighting?

all army have 600 pnt, all mixed terrain

Your gallic army fighting the lowlanders should be 600...it was 'topped up' but left you with only 598pts so no second army...i think

Goes to write a snarky scroll to whoever thinks he's running Epirus for barging into Sicily.

Does the reserve army only activate if enemy enter the capitol? Or does it activate if enemy enters any of the three home provinces?
