Sicily: The entire island is now in Carthaginian hands after the fall of Messana. 2 Roman legions fell in fierce fighting. The battle only went Carthage's way after the elephants were sent in. Carthage has now started a Golden Age!

the rumors are true... Alexander died in iconium last year.
But iconium holds, and it's defenses were reinforced with 5 hoplites and 5 cavalry.
The cavalry units in iconium atacked the perian at the gates of the city, eliminating 5 Hv cavalry and one immortal. Our losses were just one cavalry.

Attacked Iconium with 1 Heavy Cavalry. Lost the unit in the attack when an Army popped up to defend. The Macedonians seems to have reinforced Iconium with another Army so we called off the attack for now.
In a major naval engagement south of Knossos, 4 Persian Galleys attacked a fleet of 4 Macedonian Galleys. Persia lost 1 Galley while Macedonia lost 3 Galleys.

The army you see in the picture above was defeated.
Five of our catapults wonded it, an corageous cavalry gave their lives to weaken the army some more, and our army of cavalry finally defeated it!
10 Other cavalry units atacked the remaining stack of immortals, defeating five of them, while loosing 3 cavalry.
Although the persian cavalry in the hills worries us, we strongly belive that iconium will hold.
