This map continues the fight of Agrigentum, after exactly and interesting reconstruction of the siege of Agrigenthom between 262 BC and 261 BC.

Therefore, there should be a city in the center of the city that is easy to defend. It is a Greek city called Accra Gas (it is one of two nearby rivers named Agrigentam near Rome), it seems to be Sparta, but because of the similarities with Athens I I chose Sparta. In their civilization, maybe I will give them some Athens troops. They will be guided by Hannibal Gisco (a common Cartago carrying Carthage since the siege of Akragas in 403 BC) including a small army of Carthage.

The city is surrounded by two Roman legions and their camps are protected by confrontation. There are surround sounds around town and Roman camp as well. Syracuse will also have several Greek allies (due to recent alliance with Siracus Hero II King)

Surrounded by the Carthaginian army headed by Hanno, it was harvested near the small town near El Besso and passed through Roman reinforcement (hierro).

The battle of Agrigento (Sicily, 262 BC) was the first intense fight of the first Poeni war and the first large-scale military conflict between Carthage and the Roman Republic. The battle took place after the long siege that started in 262 BC, leading to the Romans' victory and the beginning of Sicilian rule by the Romans. Agrigentum is a city 4.0 miles (2.5 miles) from the southern coast of Sicily. It is surrounded by steep slopes, located in the plateau, except in the west. The city is protected by the West Hypsas River (Drago River) and the east Akragas River. Natural barriers mean that the only way to attack cities is from the west, making it easier to defend cities. The city leads the main road along the south coast and also heads north and east to other cities.

262-1 The Roman marched to Sicily after a long siege to capture Agrigentum. By the Carthaginian warships, they have recovered the coastal area from the Romans and even made it possible to plunder Italian coasts. As a result, in 260, the Senate made a big decision. Carthage challenges on its own. Rome is purely the power of the land so far and will build a fleet. During the beginning of the first clash of the Ponge war Romans captured the stranded battleship Carthage. It was introduced recently by the Mediterranean Navy. There are five rows of paddles (300 paddlers) as a pentagram star. These are bigger and heavier than the triangle which is the standard ship of the Greek war. Additional sizes are important as victory at sea involves hitting other ships
