I dare say that after the midle of the campaign i started to get bored.
Then i started a new campaign as Parthia.
Parthia starts with a minor settlement, and a military aly the getae.
I started my expansion ftom the 2nd turn, by taking the settlement west of my starting position, which belonged to a faction that was a satrapy of the Seleucid empire, as were almost all the factions araunf my land, so when i declared war, all the satrapies of the seleucids and the seleucids themselves declared war on me from the begining of the campaign.
During the next turns other neighboring factions declared war on me so in 10 turns ive played im in war with all the factions i have contact so far and surounded from enemies in every direction, which sounds chalenging.
Now the reality.
In these first 10 turns, i have conquered the province of parthia, and settlements from the provinces of arachosia, chorasmiaand gedrosia, total of 8 settlements, by fighting siege battles, against enemy armies just waiting in and besides their settlements, and only defend against an invasion from media apopatene by a stack half eastern spearmen half slingers and javelinmen, which i easily destroyed with a 13 units army of parthian horse archers, media cav, spearmen and jav.
What i mean is, eventhough im in war with everyone, instead of defending against invasions from any direction they all stand passively and quietly by their settlements.
No AI at all.
