    You'd experience the same thing with all factions, all mods.... There is no way to make mid-campaign difficult...

    Have a standing fleet "to combat Pirates".

    If you're having trouble with huge cities etc, maybe download a few mods, like maybe the City Mod, or just chuck in the whole mini mod pack in, which can help by making the AI a little more intelligent, or the victory conditions mod where the factions move in a more historically accurate way.

    I would reccommend VH/M, the VH campaign isn't too bad, the computer generally can't deal with much even with the mnai bonuses, but it is a lot harder, give it a go, and maybe try a harder faction than Romani.

    For a start play on at least VH/H, anything less isnt really challenging. Secondly, never raise your taxes above high for any reason. Lastly, dont play Romani!!!

    Leave AI alone until 250. Otherwise they will go down easy.

    I'm playing a VH/M Hayasdan campaign, it's going better. Still managed to take Kotais and Mtiskheta? fairly easily, but I'm going to just hunker down in those 3 cities for a bit and hope the AS doesnt break the alliance with me yet . Seems more fun than the Romans, the Sweboz, or the Arverni, who I have tried before. Sweboz WAS pretty fun though maybe I'll play them next. But they got too strong after I took Denmark Scandanavia and the surrounding settlements to the east of me. Maybe with VH/M instead of H/M like I had them on, it wouldn't be such a big deal. Plus I was still poor as hell, so yeah sounds fun too. Thanks for the Help though, Hayasdan seems pretty neat.

    Use house rules, the only safe way to get very difficoult campaigns with any faction.
