Favorite Celtic Faction in EB?

[A Terribly Harmful Name]

I would take Casse any day: their relative isolation protects them, their lands are rich with trade and mining and they have access to a very diverse and powerful roster of Celtic and Goidilic units. Besides, their artwork is superb.

Arverni are a second since I prefer Arjos to Cingetos, but elsewhere they and the Aedui face big challenges with mean resources. Their initial roster also seems to lack in diversity: for some reason I can't even recruit Gaeroas with a high level MIC, as far as I played with them. They also have to fight the Romani and Sweboz after spending their troops and money fighting themselves, which means a big disadvantage and a constant struggle to survive.

Basically, you can choose between the three (Casse, Arverni, Aedui) and tell the reason of your preference.

Casse is my choice.
Their very very heavy infantry is really kick-ass bad boys who I love them with my whole heart eventhough most of my troop will be horse-archers and the akward phalanx.

Arverni, for the very reasons that you don't like 'em. The fact that they're in constant struggle against all their neighbours makes them so fun. Although it's true that their early roster isn't that amazing their late units are more than impressive. The Casse units are fun and all but I hate the fact that you have to expand slowly against rebels.

I like Casse best, but because I play historically, they become boring - I play so they never leave the British Isles until some non-Gallic faction pisses them off by taking Belgica. Until then, they stay at home.

Arveni is fun if you can get a solid alliance with the Romani, and help them beat up the Aedui. Also they can be quite powerful after taking Massilia.

I prefer the Aedui. The one unit difference between them and the Arveni would be the main reason: the Arjos dont really fill and combat niche that isn't already filled: they're identical to the Sulduros with the exception of a lower cost and smaller mic requirement, but with a smaller Aor to deal with. Not to mention that the Aedui are still true men, and don't prostrate themselves before some false god-king!

[Tellos Athenaios]

Casse; Aedui close second.

[M to the A]

Aedui, I don't know why, but they speak to me. They were the first faction I played with so now I love them and hate the darned Arverni...

[Ibrahim]

Arverni; Vercingetorix FTW!!

[Megalos Danielos Psychopatos]

Casse:
-rich and safe location
-cool artworks (those paintings are great)
-great units, especially swordmasters, "hammerers" and those heavily armoured guys

[moriluk]

I thought Getai were celtic.

[theoldbelgian]

I thought Getai were Celtic.

nope
they are Thracian's
although some Celtic elements are in their civilization butt this was merely some cultural exchange from earlier contacts and the migration of the Galatians

[SwebozGaztiz]

I like the Aedui, hahah Dumnorix all the way!!
And i really like the carnutes they look really really nice
