I lost?(BI)

ok, this is the most painful thing i have ever had to go through playing this game. As the Sassanids, i set up a border, took some rebel cities, and started war against the ERE. Then the Huns come from the North and start to cripple my weak northern cities. Meanwhile, the Vandals go and conquer Rome and to make a long story short the Vandals won the game before I did!!! It was about 150-200 turns in and I lost to them. Has any one else lost the Campaign game to another faction before?
:wall::thumbsdown::no::embarassed::furious3:

No but it does happen with BI. It's a bit of a race at times. I narrowly avoided losing to and beat the Sassanids as the Romano-British, as despite them taking the entire right of the map and looking unbeatable, they failed to take Constantinople. So when I had my 14 provences, despite being stretched to the limit and being far inferior in strength, I beat them and won the campaign. That's the thing with having goals. Your militiary and economic might pales in comparison to those factions who sneakily complete their goals first. It encourages you to go for broke, or send out war parties further afield and interfere in other factions success.

The BI campaign isn't about resting on your laurels, not without modding the victory conditions anyway.

Greetings Professor,

How are you able to play Romano-British? I selected that one on one occasion, and when the map came up, I was in Northwestern Africa, but no control worked at all. There was no cursor. There was no control panel at the bottom of the screen, only Northwestern Africa. I did not even see a city where one should have been at Gibraltar. The only "control" that worked, was the "escape" key, which returned me to the menu.

I hope to learn something new.

Strength and Honor
