If green had a galley instead of

 

 

a legion in the Province of Alexandria (see illustration on the right), the conquest of Alexandria could take place. For this, however, the galley from Attalia would first have to eliminate the galley in Alexandria in a mutual destruction battle.

Know-hows: red: monarchy / yellow: roads

With ROADS know-how, the yellow legions have three maneuver actions each. They can reach Rome in two movements. However, they must first cross a province with one green legion. If green demands a mutual destruction fight, only four of the legions will reach Rome. Conquest would then be impossible, since the defense strength of Rome is 5. On the other hand, if no battle is demanded, the yellow units can proceed in peace, and conquer Rome (illustration 3 and 4).
