Just a quick update. Once again thanks for the advice.

I've started my first EB Campaign and it is thoroughly enjoyable, it really has rekindled my love for what is in my opinion the best Total War game. The EB modification takes the game on a level, the historical information and unit details are simply superb.

In the end I went for the Casse as my faction and have been taking it nice and slow just getting a feel for the game again. I've managed to conquer the British Isles and have launched my first overseas element of the campaign by taking on and defeating the Auedi. Thankfully the Averni have only taken a passing interest, though they are my next target. The Sweboz are proving a bit of an annoyance, constantly breaking the peace with border raids to my east.

I also have a suspicion the Romans are going to make a move soon

Anyway enough of my rambling, superb, thoroughly enjoyable mod.

Congratulations to the developers, thank you.
