what's your favorite faction

Pahlava definitely. I've finished campaigns as Baktria, Qarthadastim, Getai, and Pahlava(all 1.0), but they were the best. Horse archers are incredibe. Armored horse archers even more so.

Hayasdan! Because it's the only faction that I never seem to be able to win as!

Started a campaign as Saba today, in the 250's BC. Really fun starting position, once you get past the initial boring decade of building mines in your cities and having almost no fighting done!

Almost no one seems to like the Sauromatae (bar the I like them all people) hehe. I wonder if that's because of a lack of city improvements/city size cap, horse archer hatred(in some cases), or lack of identification with them hmmmm....

I myself wasn't a big fan till I started playing them

, but my favorite faction remain ever the Seleucids... Semper Seleukeia!

Hayasdan and Casse!
Hayasdab cause I love the persian way of fighting and Casse cause they simply are fun to play

Saba!
Mainly because I like fighting against overwhelming odds and an army based around skirmishers and light infantry. It's also quite satisfying when you win a battle with inferior troops and send the greeks scurrying back to their safe cities.

Hayasdan so far, can't praise my recent campaign with them enough.

But finding my current Makedonia campaign interesting to. :)

1. Baktria - I just love the concept of "indo-Greeks", plus the campaign really has a frontier feel to it...

2. Makedonia - Like Rome, but harder and more Hellenic...

3. Saba - How can you not enjoy conquering Ethiopia?
