So, I've been playing as Athens, and I've got to say, it's been a damn good bit of fun. In fact I've really enjoyed every DLC campaign for Rome 2, they have quite literally saved the game for me since the GC in my estimation at least is beyond repair.
I've had to struggle to handle a collapsing empire initially, I've been beset on all sides by enemies, as I showed in another thread the Persians are on scene and making me nervous, it sort of gives me an impression Athens was a test of the Attila concept of Roman collapsing empire you have to try and hold together (if you are playing as Rome of course.
I lost multiple settlements initially and had to re-trench, try and get things under control from internal rebellion stand point and get the economy going sufficiently to support a proper army, while at the same time working to cultivate some allies. In short, WOS is everything about Total War that makes it enjoyable and fun to play.
