I've been waiting for the Hellenic standard bearers to try some greek factions again, but that is no surprise. :grin: I keep wanting to play a good long Pontos campaign, but there's not enough good units for them yet.
right now is the Romani since I don't have to wait ages to get the Reforms to kick in.
I WAS going to say Aedui but the bonuses where overlooked, so I'll wait for the next patch.
I am giving the Hellens a break this time... in .74 I played 2 long campains with KH and Makedonia.
It was the Getai before and it is the Getai again! lol:laugh4: :2thumbsup:
Casse and Carthage are my favorite so far, Casse are fun because you can build up a home base on the islands and then use all the cash flow to support major invasions of the main land. Plus barbarian units just plain rock socks.
Well i don't know since the patch isn't out yet :inquisitive:Quote:

Right now my favourite's Karthadast, but after the recruitment problems are fixed, i probably prefer Lusotana.
And when they get more units, Pontos should be very good too :yes:
I've played an Arche Seleukeia campaign and an Epeiros campaign. Both are very fun and very hard. I thought I would blitz Rome, but after taking Apri and leaving a token garrison, the bastards bribed it back. At least the war on the Macedonian front was going much better.
Unfortunately, my computer has a very hard time rendering large cities in seige battles so I had to stop out of sheer frustration of speed. Good news though...
... I just bought over $1,800 in new computer parts! We'll see how much it likes to lag when I have two graphics cards.:furious3:
Echoing rcross here, Cathage and Casse are my favorites.
played full campaigns with baktria and macedon in 0.8, i think i´ll try pontos and pahlava in 0.82. or maybe baktria again ~D
