What factions do you like crushing?

[Carthaginian General]

I'll have to say Makedonia. The nation is basically infected with megalomany whenever you hear about them. It's always ''Makedonia is the greatest! Makedonia here, Makedonia there, Makedonia! YAY!''. I guess I just like stepping on people's toes when they tell me those toes are unsteppable. Oh, and I dislike playing as Hellenes - spears and pikes are rather boring to use, but are ideal to fight against since they're so... well, I don't know, I just don't raise an eyebrow whenever I see an elite infantry unit of spear/pikemen. And it's a lot more satisfying to obliterate units of spearmen than swordsmen. I like slaughtering Hypaspistai as well. What could be better to crush than the pride and joy of the Makedonian army?


So what ones are yours?

[Iraklis]

Personaly i hate make distinctions... i love killing everyone
Tho since i enjoy Kart-Hadast most of all factions to play with, i would have to vote for SPQR as most loved to crush.

Well everyone has its own taste, I like to see Carthage fall to ruins. And next on my agenda is a huge invasion of Africa to destroy Attika and Carthage.

Cheers

[Andronikos]

Enemy factions. Really don't have any special one and while playing for someone I like even defeating my favourite factions (example: Makedonia and KH).

[Majd il-Romani]

Baktria. Since I love being Romani, I take over the western part of the map and help them take over the east, then we sandwich persia, take it over, and I RP a collossal war between the Indians(as baktria) and ROME

Oddly enough, as Rome I've never gone down into Africa.... I don't need it, and Carthage doesn't attack me when I confine them to the other side of My Sea..... and as Carthage, I haven't had any problems with Rome, because they have yet to take Rhegion in my current game. I consider it a demilitarized zone.

No, I've never finished a game. At a certain point it becomes boring. I'm thinking of blitzing hard soon, just to see how overextended I can go, and fight back from the collapse.

[Cullhwch]

You might not collapse. If you blitz hard enough and start the wars yourself you will turn into a juggernaut. Relentless expansion can be viable in EB.

[Cbvani]

I'm thinking of taking my massive Romani warchest and bee-lining it for India, just to see if I can make it in 20 years. My bet? Yes. Will I tick every faction off and bankrupt myself in the process? Probably. FUN.

As a Successor Kingdom, other Sucessor Kingdoms. Share your point of view, but with the Romans. Just so satisfying to crush the people that everyone seem to give so much praise (Much of it is rightly given, though). Also enjoy killing all the "Barbaroi" factions (Aeudi, Arverni, Sweboz, Dacia, Lusotanna) beacuse they usually have many lightly armoured troops that are easy to kill in droves.. But for most of the time, I tend to respect my enemy. Though the horse-archer way of war is outright cowardly (No, not really, just brutally clever and effective against phalanx-based armies, whom are in the centre of my heart.. Poor poor phalanxes )

[Iraklis]

Althou i am greek i will defo shout : Kill ze mazafaka phalanxes!!!! Kill zem all!
In a side note, i absolutly "love" phalanx + light infantry (preferably with missile secondary weapon) + medium cavalry tactics
(Irelavent i know, but blame my talkative nature).

[Valion]

The Eleutheroi ALL of them!!! they dirty the Map

Other than that i like to kill all the Hellenic factions!!! somehow i get irritated when i see pikes and armies that look the same the only difference is either the name or the colour of something

[Cbvani]

I don't like crushing ANY faction.... it prevents a re-emergence later, and only proper factions are expansionist and will directly oppose my reign. If I'm surrounded by Eleutheroi, then nobody will attack me. BORING.

I don't like removing factions from the game either, I meant what ones you like defeating the armies of :)

Oh that's so funny. Just yesterday I killed 45,000 baby-murdering Phoenicians and their smelly Numidian subjugates in a single battle with my pike army. YAY! And that's for you, King of the Numidian Hillside:

[Kromulan]

I like to smash the pointy-stick wielding dolts. I hate phalanxes. I like to cut them to little chunks with big swords.
And those "awesome" Spartan Generals? I like to time how quickly the different heavies can rip them apart. Best so far? Kluddos Lugos!

Smashing the Romans is kinda fun, too.

My armies usually have a large (3-4) archer contingent, so fighting unarmored foes isn't much fun since they die so fast before the melee that they don't have enough morale left to make it interesting.

[Ibrahim]

since there is an acute shortage of lj people in EB, I prefer to slaughter germanic or gallic people. I do not like slaughtering semetic peoples (being half one myself (arab)). then again, its just a game.
just remember kids, if you want to get back at a real person, don't kill him. do like I do instead-imagine enemy factions in EB (or IBFD) as the group you don't like.

[Maion Maroneios]

I just LOVE slaughtering filthy fish-smelling Romaioi. ΖΗΤΩ Η ΜΑΚΕΔΟΝΙA ΚΑΙ ΟΙ ΥΙΟΙ ΑΥΤΗΣ!

Maion

[Hooahguy]

as for me, i love killing maks and KH!!!!!!
go getai!

[Pontius Pilate]

I like to crush any faction besides the beloved SPQR. But in particular, I also have to agree crushing phalanxes in deeply satisfying, especially KO, makedonia, and the ptolemies. There's nothing like surrounding a phalanx on three sides than having your cavalry due a charge from the rear, really makes my day. it is also fun to run down retreating phalagites, they're so darn slow!

Oh yeah! Well, I love exterminating decadent, perverted and pedophilic Makedonians too!

Not really. Just felt like I had to defend the Romani honour.

My favorite to fight in battles are the barbarian factions, since they exhibit more flexible tactics and are not as annoying as those blasted phalanxes! The Seleukids are my favorite to crush because it is such a challenge.

[Legosoldier]

I like to crush all factions!







except for the faction I'm playing as...

You know what I did in a Romani campaign recently? That's right, I demolished Makedonia, who controlled all of Greece south of the Hellespont. All I controlled with Italy. Even had a 300-to-1 battle victory (killed 3k, lost 10). So you know what, Makedonia? Suck on my gladius.

Nothing like a little inter-faction rivalry, is there?

[Maion Maroneios]

Pedophilic? Blasphemy! This is madness! How can you call US the great descendants of Megas Alexandros that? By mighty Zeus Pater I shall have my vengeance *immediately opens EB in irder to play Makedonian campaign and crush the Romans with a twisted laugh*
