Please let me know what you think. It seems fairly balanced, but its hard to tell sometimes.

Thanks

Thanks for the input, do you see any changes needed for head to head play?

Possibly the Romans could do with something to help slightly, but only a slight extra. This is based only on my one try with them, and they did win, but only just.

Just had a chance to play this one vs the AI, played as the Carthos..Charged up the middle w the elephants and won a victory w decent amt of break points to spare.. The Numidian light cavalry was very agressive on the flank which was kind of cool... I think a human would have a hard time w the Carth's vs another human, as they should historically....

Thanks for the input, did you think the Romans might need a slight boost too then?

Not at all...
I played as the romans versus the AI and obviously won an easy victory.
Next time in multiplayer with the Carthaginians I got only a draw (i.e. both players reached their break level in the same turn, and the system notifies both a victory, i think this is an already reported bug).
3rd play as the romans in multiplayer i won rather easily, as the enemy was too late in advancing his spearmen.
So i think the scenario is lightly unbalanced towards the romans, as it justly should be.
very good scenario, thanks
