    Default whats your favorite faction?

    Well another one of this , but this time is a poll!

    if you really can't choose only one , feel free to choose two, but restrain yourself from doing so for more than 2 factions

    If you add up all the percentages you get more than 100?

    thats weird...

    perhaps it's caused by selecting two factions

    If there is EB multi player where human player takes 1 faction each, ill choose Casse.

    Awesome starting position, finance, military (except chariot) and family members who doesn't produce babies. Casse rules!

    Sorry, i just had to vote twice, it doesnt do justice if i dont lol. I chose the Romani because they simply have an awesome game throughout the entire timeframe. They have one of the best armies availiable in terms of not only strength but also fun, and just because they are the focus of Rome: Total War.

    I also couldnt stop myself choosing Makedon as well. Wow, i love these guys! Not so much for the gameplay as the Romani, but by god they are an awesome faction to play with....i mean, their faction colour is BLACK!! Personally i'm not much a fan of the east, nor barbarian factions. I think the east is too....hmm....eastly?...lol, and i'm just not a fan of stinky dirty backward barbarians, so the Romani and Makedon it is

    Rome, primarily, they're the faction I will play almost to the exception of all others. Largely because I don't like phalanxes, barbarians or horse archers.

    I also voted Epeiros because they're my all-purpose "migrated Hellenic/Hellenistic" faction. They didn't matter after 270BC in our timeframe, and so moving them doesn't upset the historicity of the game.
    It began on seven hills - an EB 1.1 Romani AAR with historical house-rules (now ceased)
    Heirs to Lysimachos - an EB 1.1 Epeiros-as-Pergamon AAR with semi-historical houserules (now ceased)
    Philetairos' Gift - a second EB 1.1 Epeiros-as-Pergamon AAR

    I chose 3

    Aeudui- very challenging and fun, and after you have reunited most of gaul you will have to probably face the poeni, and the lusitani, and romani and sweboz....and if the casse have united the islands of tin...well you know...

    Epeiros - my favorite hellenic faction because they have a quick goal and after that they can do whatever they want - killl macedon and then expand either south or north....or west... or east...the possibilities are endless, plus the added fact of the many different types of units they can recruit as well as excellent regionals :D

    Geta - Whats not to love about massive falx wielding warriors who ALSO get horse archers!!! :D

    I'm not sure who you called a moron too, but I think it's hardly a thing to be insulting over. Anyways, Your name is Roman, your portrait (Bleh, I have the same portrait as you and I didn't pick the Romans), your location reveals something different and in your signature you have the largest image in your overall profile.

    Don't take that serious, I was just making a (not extremely good) joke. I think Swordmaster knew what's my favourite faction and was joking, and so I made a joke too. There was no insult whatsoever intended.

    I've voted Baktria, but I'm not sure that's true anymore. I've had so many good campaigns as different factions that it's hard to choose. Until relatively recently I wouldn't have considered voting for any barbarian faction but my 1.0 Casse 'Gallic Liberation' game was such fun that I almost voted for them. Naked Spearmen FTW.

    Many Romani and Makedonia fanboys, but too many Baktria-lovers relative to the number of AARs we get from them. We need more Baktria AARs!
