I nominate thee for the 'Best First Post Ever' award.

I'm liking this idea! When I finish my Pontos campaign, I will definitely play this game!

Thanks for the support. Right as I started playing this save I realized that having made it on a fresh install the unit size is at default (large?). I normally prefer huge unit size, but my question is this... what is everyone's preference for unit size? With enough interest in large and huge I will try to create save files for both, as well as for Medium campaign difficulty. Also I would like to create some more migration saves, I had in mind doing Galatia or Pergamon next. I am not much of a historian though, so if anyone could enlighten me as to what ideal diplomacy conditions would be for those regions in 272 I would appreciate it.

I only play on huge. Galatia sounds good. Pergamon seems so close you'd just recapture your old provinces in about 20 years. *unless its not one of of the greek peninsula factions going*

Ah yes, definately not VH campaign difficulty. It's not very hard anyway, it's just easy but annoying, so you're not making the game less difficult at all.

I don't enjoy watching my fleet of 10 quinqremes with a 3 star admiral get defeated by a half-depleted unit of Cartheginian pentekonterai.

Thank god you're not exagerating

I prefer to play Huge, and VH/H.

The idea is really awesome... I hope you create a Pergamon campaign on my settings, it's really my long-term hope to say the least... I'tried it myself a few times but since i haven't got an idea how to mod, it sucked
