    Some of the richest Settlements are located around the Aegean and Nile delta.

    Halicarnassus, nice climate...

    Seriously probably Antioch, just because it was my capital as the Kingdom of the Parthians.

    Unit would be Cataphracts, they may not be the most effective unit (they're not bad though!) but I'm just a bit of a romantic sometimes, I just like them!

    Ibant obscuri sola sub nocte per umbram
    perque domos Ditis vacuas et inania regna:
    quale per incertam lunam sub luce maligna
    est iter in silvis, ubi caelum condidit umbra
    Iuppiter, et rebus nox abstulit atra colorem.

    (Choices taken from Extended Greek Mod,not vanilla Rome)
    Favorite city: Sparta. Can't stand not having it under my banner,irregardless of what faction I'm playing as. Partly because I dread being the target of a Spartan phalanx or syntagma.
    Though I also consider Pella to be somewhat of a prize. But I do kinda miss Themiskyra and those rebel Amazons.
    Favorite units: Spartan Royal Guard & Greek Armored Cavalry tied,with Spartan Phalangists a close second. The Spartan Royal Guard are uber fierce (and expensive: 8K a unit!),and Greek Armored Cavalry are the perfect hammer to compliment the anvil. Spartan Phalangists are the anvil in domestic armies (defending Greece only).

    In R:TW I simply adore Athens which, in my opinion, is indisbutably one of the richest cities on the map. Even after its share of military upkeep charges have been subtracted from it's funds, it still can produce a massive 3,000+ denarii per turn. In all honesty I've never seen one city add quite that much to my coffers.

    In BI my love lies with Salamis (that island North of Egypt). At the start it seems a tad pathetic, but, after building and upgrading the port, income from it is epicly vast and the cost of the construction cost is paid back within the turn. Sadly the sea being its only income makes it vulnerable to blockades which devestate its contributions.
