So, we've had numerous threads on what faction you played first, what faction you've never played, and what factions you still want to play.

Now, let's get to the question, "what faction did you play first?"

I thought it would be interesting to know what faction you chose to play with first, and why you did so. Was it because you like pointy hats? Was it because you want to crush Rome!? Was it because you felt psychologically attacked by everything French and wanted to raze every city from Massilia to Lemonum?!?!

Well, post everything here!

My first faction was Epeiros. I chose it because I loved Greek warfare and Elephants, and I wanted to crush everything Roman.
