Where to expand with Saka?

**xzGAB** · 05-20-2011, 12:27

I am now playing a Saka campaign and, as usual, started to expand south and destroyed Bactrian. But now I have 2 choices: remain east conquering rebel sentlement and (after/at the same time) attack AS. I also ask me why not abandon all east cities and go to Ptolomaic lands, they are very rich. I could go greece (and all those gold mines), Minor Asia...

What do you all think? Tell me a place with good chance to earn easy money and stabilish myself.

Haven't played a nomadic faction in a long time, but isn't there a province or two with the nomad resource around Getai's starting lands? Might make Greece the best bet, since you could conquer north and be able to recruit more of Saka's non elite cavalry.

On the other hand, I migrated to Carthage as the Sauromatae and had a lot of fun. Used Numidian cavalry as my fodder to back up the elite cavalry I could build by settling...

Also, extremely good recruitment options for Saka. Probably the best for any faction in any region.
