A desperate plea on behalf of the Aedui and Casse

[Intranetusa]

1. Disband any unneeded soldiers first. ie. navies

2. Attack only eleuthori, don't start wars with factions you aren't at war with

3. Try to get a ceasefire with factions you are at war first.

4. Try to get trade rights with ALL factions you come across with the diplomat (helps your economy a lot). Trade FTW

5. Your central cities and vast majority of cities should all be economy and population based. (don't build military stuff, just economic stuff)

6. A few cities should be military cities, and they should be population and military based (population buildings to ensure you have a large enough population to recruit from)

7. When you're ready to go to war, attack the closest enemy, don't start wars with random people you aren't bordering...

As Casse: First of all, don't take any Eleutheroi settlement, build up you economy. Roleplay that you are defeated by the other tribes on the Isles. Lead your people to the Mediterranean Sea with ships. --> Casse Kingdom in North Africa? Casse on the Pontic Steppes? Casse between Carthage and Egypt? Lots of opportunities.

Why not send all your FM/troops on ships and relocate to Byzantium? Casse capital and empire based at Byzantium will be hilarious...

As I said, lots of opportunities, from the departure, you can settle wherever you want. Migration EB campaigns are fun.

I wonder if BI's horde feature will work with EB...

I was hoping it would, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Possibly because EB doesn't have horde scripts and/or because EB doesn't have units designated as horde units.

Have you tried reading some of the AARs to give yourself some ideas?

Casse on the Pontic Steppes?

That's actually a viable strategy. Casse are one of the relatively few factions that can recruit Roxolani Nobles.
