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

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).

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.

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.

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.

I play as the KH around 75% of the time (otherwise i'm Baktra or the Ptolemaioi)...my favorite faction to crush is definately Makedonia. They always give me hell in Attika and the Peloponessos and in the early game, i'm literally their bitch. After many years of struggling, I eventually manage to turn the table on them and take a savage pleasure in crushing them.

Then I turn my eyes west to Rome...I take great pleasure in the side quest of liberating my Greek brothers in Southern Italy, Sicily, and Massalia. I like to make Massalia my western power base where I make life hell for the Romans in Gaul. :)

Me? I like to crush whatever faction gets in my way. Currently the Roman world is at peace, though technically at war with the Saba. Makedonia-in-the-Levant is my next "aquisition", then it's raiding time to finish of the VCs. Will mark the first complete Roman game for me, ever. Though I still have yet to make the Augustans and am roughly 45-50 years from being able to do so in any case.

For some reason, I always find myself with a vendetta against Epirus. Or more specifically, against Pyrrhus and his descendants, whom I like to hunt down and kill like the dogs they are. Really, once they are out of the way (which typically involves sacking Ambrakia and Epidamnos, and sometimes Thermon), then I leave them be.

Following that, I don't really have a specific preference - although the way my current Romani campaign is going each and every battle against the accursed Aedui is hard-fought and so victories are much the sweeter. The cost in Claudii and Fabii of my Gallic wars is pretty high - all the more expensive since I'm only trying to restore the power of the Arverni somewhat to provide some balance of power and maintain my overland supply routes to Hispania. It has nothing at all to do with expanding the benefits of Roman civiliation to those over-hairy northerners...
