    my first faction was KH, as i loved the greek cities in vanilla, and wanted to create a spartan greece. My second faction was Casse, because I'm from the Isles, my third was Makedonia (which i abandoned) and my fourth was Rome with house rules (Which strangely i got overrun by Carthage in 250BC unprovoked... f**king elephants...) I have just started baktria, AND MY GOD I LOVE EM! i love their diversity GOOD JOB EB ON BAKTRIA!

    Didn't get into EB until 1.0 back in October, was it? First faction was Pahlava. What can I say I'm a cavalry guy, and they have an amazing roster. I've played many factions since, but my heart belongs to them

    Read The House of Seleukos: The History of the Arche Seleukeia
    for an in-depth and fascinating history of the heirs of Seleukos Nikator.

    Default AW: What faction did you play first?

    The first faction I played back in 0.8 was Casse. I was new to EB and thought, "hey those isolated islanders sure make for an easy introduction". Got crushed by the other Britons after 3 ours and 2 years or so...

    Second was Romani. That was so easy that I welcomed my first ctd for quitting my campaign. Thank god 0.81 came and I tried Makedonia, and fell in love... Got a massive empire until 187, then I became bored...

    Then came 1.0 and I did a Sweboz campaign till a ctd in 234 stopped me. Then I did a Carthage campaign. That was actually the first time achieved the victory conditions. Had a massive Mediterranean empire, but I was somehow bored in 213, and I quitted.

    But 1.1 was alreay out, so I started a Makedonian campaign again. Currently at 218 and far from quitting.

    I second that! (Romani are my favourite and naturally I played them first)

    I honestly have no idea, .7 was what 1.5-2 years ago? More? God I've playing EB long. Anyway, the most likely faction would be Kart-Hadastim.
    I shouldn't have to live in a world where all the good points are horrible ones.

    my first love and always shall be Pontus way back in .7 for I love the eastern mixed with greek. And they are a underdog so I always play the small factions. I am proud to say that I have never ever even wanted to play the Romans in EB. Not that I hate them (well maybe a little) but there are so many other interesting factions to play as!!!!!
