Factions you haven't played/never got into

[Rilder]

We all have our favorite factions, like those Greek factions so you can pretend to be spartan, or the Aedui/Averni so you can play EB naked, But what about those factions that have never seen a save file for you, or those factions you've played but give up after 5 turns to play a different faction.

Personally the factions I haven't played at all:

Saka (horse archers :P)
Pahlava (Didn't even play parthians in vanilla ever)
Hayasdan (didn't play armenians in vanilla either)
Arche Seleukeia (Too big an empire, like to start small)
Averni (Like the Aedui logo better)
Makedonia (surprisingly)

Factions Ive played but gave up quickly:

Sauromatae (argg horse archers)
Bactria (province distance mainly but mainly cause I just don't feel like playing them)
Saba (almost got into them a couple times but eh)
Karthadastim (Kind of big and too farspread for my tastes)

Think thats it.

Go go go ebers!
