==========================

Rectification. Two means can be used to track down that avatar.

Save as... : often users leave some caracteristic name on their uploaded pix. I see "dreadout".
Google image.

Conclusion: Just some kind of indie game type survival horror called Dreadout. As easy that. Thanks technology.

Unrelated to the Punic theatres of war, the British Empire was struggling with a massive uprising in their overseas colonies.
As conflicts emerged across the globe, British colonists eagerly sought to make
good profit by supplying the Punic territories to the West, however, the Parliament back in the home islands imposed a trade embargo
between the colonists and the Phoenicians, fearing it would make Hannibal too powerful.
Enraged by this latest grievance, the colonists rechristened themselves
as Columbians and took up arms, subsequently crowning an Emperor of their own;
with the charismatic immortal Emperor Washington Norton I at the helm,
they soon began to carve out their own destiny by laying siege to
the loyalist stronghold of Halifax.



Hannibal had now declared war on Mexico, expanding the number of fronts, but perhaps a decided necessity.
It was no secret that Japanese & Roman supply lanes ran through Mexico and linked up together via Mexican middlemen.
The Mexican government was known to be sympathetic towards and firmly in the Roman camp as well, offering all kinds of material support to Caesar.
Hannibal would not let this stand.



In the East Asian theatre, the first priority at hand was the liberation of Fuzhou.
The Japanese interior was bombarded night and day from the PNS Astarte as Chinese divisions began to encircle Fuzhou.
With the PNS Astarte enforcing a total blockade and all land outside the city under the watchful eye of Hongwu's cavalry, Fukushuu was being slowly starved into submission.





On the Primary Front, several divisions of state-of-the-art Punic infantry divisions
swept through the Third Rome's German suzerains with extreme prejudice.
The aim was to minimize the threat of a possible flanking maneuver directed by the Romans.
Had this avenue of attack gone unchecked, the rich, fertile heartlands of the Punic Sea would have been exposed to the worst of Roman depravities.

[Tomorrow's Dawn]

The advance into the lands of the Aztec proceeded at a rapid pace,
with Punic forces already arriving onto Tampico's doorstep at the onset of
the conflict. Punic scouts reported that the Aztec army was woefully
disadvantaged and outdated in comparison to the modern arms of the Punic Army.
Both long and composite bow archery was the standard amongst Montezuma's
rank and file infantry. For all of the Aztec Immortal's posturing,
his forces weren't as bloodthirsty or elite as he'd like his foes to think.



It was reported that the Columbians had successfully seized Halifax,
putting thousands of British refugees to flight across the ocean.
Some of them sought asylum in the Punic Sea and it was widely rumored
amongst the elite in London that the governor of Halifax had defected
over to the Phoenicians and divulged a number of state secrets.



Tampico was seized after a one-sided skirmish.
The city was bombarded in the night and assaulted in the morning
when the groggy eyed defenders were depleted of strength from holding vigil.
One notable encounter though saw the complete annihilation of an entire volunteer Rifle corps.
This event inspired resistance among the Aztec people where Montezuma could not.



Back in the Med, Phoenicians began making more contributions towards the war effort.
The Drydock in Utica soon became a nexus for the construction of warships
and many workers flocked to the coastal city to work.



A brief sortie turned into a slaughter as Punic cavalry parties descended on Tuitan.
The real objective, the seizure of Huaxyacac was still so far away though.
That port needed to be captured immediately, lest the arms of the Third Roman Coalition
find the solace it needs in the valuable transit route between Japan and Russia.

Why do you still have an unupgraded archer?

Why do you still have an unupgraded archer?

Let's just say that it's the Ceremonial Guard of Kition.
It's a waste of gold to upgrade troops that are only there for garrison duty.
Besides, with Kition being surrounded on all sides by water,
and the only entrance into the Mediterranean being protected by both my vassals
(Spain & Portugal) and my own navy, as well as accounting for the inept AI,
do you really think anyone's going to penetrate into the heart and sea of the Punic nation?
