Hannibal: Rome and Carthage in the Second Punic War is a new and innovative turn-based strategy game that puts you in command of the Carthaginian military during a period of total war over land and sea with the young Roman Republic. With this military juggernaut of the ancient world at your disposal, you will vie for control over Italy, Carthage, Spain and the Mediterranean Sea using a combination of strategic political maneuvering and sheer tactical skill both on land and sea. Play consists of two layers; the first is a strategic layer where you must prudently steer your forces to the destruction of Rome’s army and the ultimate destruction of the Republic and city itself. At your disposal are a variety of unit types and historical commanders from which to form your armies. On the tactical scale, when meeting the enemy in battle, skilled leadership and a knack for war come into play as you use a simple but engaging battle system to best your opponents.

First of all, what a little gem! Thank you very much!

Second of all, one problem:
I can send army to Sardinia and Corsica via Mediterranean sea. However when I want then to send them away, game tries to trace path trough Tyrrhenian sea instead for some reason. Does not matter where I want to send it (I tried Africa, Italy and Spain). Tyrrhenian sea is of course heavily patrolled by Roman navy.

And third suggestion:
When I am awarded card, game opens card screen, if it was closed by player (to get larger view of map). That is fine of course but it would be nice if it then closed it (if it was closed before by player). It is bit annoying to manually close it as there is recruiting following after which AI starts its turn so I need to either do "show map" from recruiting screen or pause/unpause AI.

Also I noticed that I can play card during my recruiting, in effect allowing me to use new card awarded at the end of my turn. Not sure if that is intended.

I realized that ports in Sardinia and Corsica are facing Tyrrhenian sea, that is why I can not leave through Mediterranean.

First off, thanks for your kind words!

That's correct, of course.

Yes, it is designed that way.
