The general concept when invader (with aggression 3 it is quite likely) was to put down the sea to open up one enemy flank and use the brilliant sub on a flank march to open up the opposite flank. This would lead to a double envelopment and certain victory. In defence a river and a liberal scattering of rough going should neutralise any mounted enemy and allow avenues for my boats and plentiful auxilia to envelop on at least one flank, possibly coupled with a flank march and ambushes. I had learned previously that rough flat goes down last and is easily blocked by an opponent's gentle hills, so I brought rough hills (which go down early) this time, including a huge size 2 one.
