Conquered the world!

It's odd. I had over 6 million mnai yet I still didn't think of bribing any cities...

Oh, and fighting the Sarmatians and Saka as a Celt faction was a royal pain in the ass. Seriously. I hate them.

And there is NOTHING in EB that can compare to seeing the Seleucids' "Faction Destroyed" icon.

@ appo
yeah, the best color in the game!

@ Cullhwch
true, they´re the perfect antiinfantry units... did you use horsearchers in your army to fight the steppepanzer?

**Cullhwch** · 09-29-2008, 21:13

Yeah, I used quite a few mercenary HAs for the field battles. But I tried to limit myself to assaults. Teceitos and other axemen make short work of cornered steppe bodyguards. And to be fair to them, I kind of initiated the wars by annihilating 3/4 stacks in their biggest settlements.

Hah, and the nice green color is exactly why I've played about twenty Aedui campaigns to zero Arverni ones. Yellow just can't compare.

EB is best played in a way you find fun.

Wow. Amazing achievement.
What difficulty were you playing on?

**Cullhwch** · 09-30-2008, 05:57

Just M/M. I should have gone with H/M to let the AI use mercs. I ended up spawning Imperial Legions for the Romans to throw at me. That's where all those gold chevrons came from. The other upside to M/M is that autoresolve isn't skewed, which is a bonus considering I had to fight well over 400 battles.
