Poll: scale the difficulty of each campaign

[Revoltie]

Woah, speaking like that AS seems a really juicy campaign, I'm currently playing the Makedones, I'll try it as soon as I finish it.
Regarding those dirty eleutheroi barbaroi stacks, I just auto_win those, come on, those things aren't even fair.

AS is in my opinion the easiest campain. You can have 10.000 profits in the first round.

[Revoltie]

I don't know really, AS is one of the few factions I never played.

There's no way AS is easier than the Romani, Kart-Hadast, or Ptolies. To say it's a relatively easy campaign is accurate, once you get past the initial issues of crappy infrastructure, overstretched forces, and enemies in all directions, you have a huge empire with a huge amount of manpower and resources at your disposal. But I don't understand how it's easier than the Romans, Carthies, or Ptolies, all of whom start with good economies, safe starting positions, and few enemies. To some extent I'd even say that the Getai and Casse are both easier than the AS, simply because those are two factions where you can pretty much avoid war for years and take your time consolidating power. I'm also not sure how you made 10,000 in the first turn, did you not build any buildings or forces?

How do you define blitzing? In my makedonian campaign I managed to kill Epeiros and kick KH from greece in 269 b.c. Is that blitzing? D:

Yes, that sounds like blitzing to me.

[Revoltie]

Damn. I always thought I wasn't a blitzer, that is pretty bad D:
But, well, if you loook into history, then Alexandros and Temudjin were the biggest blitzers ever xD

That's only 'cause they used cheats.

[Revoltie]

"add_troop Pezheitaroi" as an example?
"add_unit Horse Archers" as another?

I know that Julius Barbaroi used cheats at pontos, he even bragged about it.

[NoHelmet]

Actually, there is a well established opinion among the scientific community that he used the "move_character" cheat
