Aside from command skill, who's the strongest (meant that they will had many battles won, and conquering many cities... almost too easily from the start), in your opinion? - put aside the ridiculous 9 stars eleutheroi generals...

Although I don't fully understand your question, I think Pyrrhos is the best starting general in EB.

Sapalbizes (Saka starting faction leader) is so good. He starts with like 4 stars, and he's a Saka FM, so he kicks ass. The Saka can start by taking 4 settlements, largely on the back of this guy.

Well, Antigonos (Makedonian Faction Leader) is also good. He has some good command/management/influence points as well as a good starting army just outside of Athenai, the latter screaming for you to besiege her.

Pyrrhos. Not only does he have 4 or 5 stars already right from the start, he is very quick in gaining more command points during battles. When I started an epirote campaign he died with 9 command stars in the streets of athens -- and he died by the hand of the KH faction leader -- what an epic movie death.

did the enemy leader's mother throw a rock on his pate?
but yes, I agree that Pyrrhos is indeed the best general around, at least in the west. Epeiros is Built on his back in the game (I have yet to see makedonia win on Epeiros-yet). and his traits help add skill to him.
well, gotta go.

It has to be Barae. He is just a demon. He definetly has the best genetics which allows him to gain command stars incredibly quickly and he's also really young and will be around in the 230s. Only problem is that he has a tiny army and it is a while before he can begin his reign of terror.
mmh I always lose him in my first batle stupid me thats incapable of fighting chariots with chariots
band your Spartan FM together to form a Spartan army of death. Support with those Cretan archers and the akonistai and slingers and you can take any city.

If you can manage enough time to build up reinforcements, Phyrros's son Alexandros can become more capable than his father in 3 years... just made sure he command the army in campaign...
I just play casse and I use Barrae too... (I never use him before, coz its weird he's the leader and his father and older kin are not... ) yes, he's pretty good at statistic, but his chariot weirdos are poor fighters.... He was killed in his 5th battlewhen smashing Avernii infantry formations
from behind
(he caught up and killed)
... before I reload and never use him to smash enemy line again...
