    Hard to say becasue it depends on each factions start. I.e in greece its a coin toss between which factions have the best amries and generals and usually the faction that loses greece in my campaigns is the faction that trys to take corinth first, because they lose the battle and then get beat by the opposing faction they are already fighting. Id say if you were KH the epeirotes or the romans are the biggest worry. You can rush mac and drive them into lydia at the start easily enough.

    Edit: in my BI campaign, pontus are the biggest threat. When it comes to random invasions. They took thodes off me, invaded dacia and even reached as far as italy with random full stacks. This is all whilst they are still only Still counquering modern day turkey

    Personally I'm partial to the BI exe, although it really shines in situations where far more specific modding is allowed...

    Uh, lionhard, the signature bars that say "Member" on them are reserved for team members. You will have to change that ASAP.

    In my experience: playing the KH with BI.exe will give you both proper and pointless naval invasions. The pointless ones are when the Romani send a few crappy units to siege Corinth (this occurs even when they still haven't taken Taras). The proper ones happen when your alliance with the Ptolemaioi is broken (which happens inevitably when they take Halicarnassos: they never garrison it properly and it rebels to you) and they land a huge stack on Rhodos.

    So, generally speaking BI is somewhat smarter than Alx?
    In the big picture is it the most challenging?

    I wouldn't call it smarter, it just has bias on different functions.

    Well, sorry, but "Member" means member of the Team - and that is pretty well known everywhere. But no biggie as I'm sure it was an honest mistake. There are lots of legitimate signature bars for you to choose from on the EB website.
