Makedonia AI starting armies seem weaker. Especially because they sometimes end up fighting the Konion Hellion. (Not that I'd know how hard AI Epeiros is, I haven't actually played Makedonia). It's your choice when it comes to those two factions.

You're right about the Epeiros starting with stronger armies, especially the elephants and calvary units. What about late game? Which is more fun?
