    Saying that we have to be Romans first, I would say the Brutii.

    He meant after you beat the Roman campaign. I would do Parthians... and wait to play the rest of the factions until their fixed with our historical mod.

    In fact i will probably play as the numidians first after modding. I would like to see some of the units and generally i have no idea about them and would like to see them in battle.

    I will probably start with either the Greeks or the Selucid Empire, because I have this strange fixation with phalanxes, they mesmerize me.

    What if it is actualy you who are crazy, and I am realy not crazy?... No, you're right... I am crazy.

    House of Julii

    Don't forget that with the Selucid Empire, you can also build Legionaries. that plus phalanxes will kick major crap out of any army

    First, I will mod the Iberians, so I can play with my avatar

    No, really, IF I get this game (when and how is another story...) my first non-Roman campaign will be the Greek city states and next the Seleucids. I'll conquer the med in all possible ways with those two, and then I'll move on ...maybe to Macedonia (if one has modded them into playable) or with Ptolemeans (if the FIX-FOR-THE-EGYPTIAN-ABOMINATION mod has arrived). If not, I'll happily squash Rome with Karthago.

    Then I'll move on to the hairy, naked barbarians

    Well, i'm a mediterranean fellow and i will give my attention in conquering everything around it first.
    This means i'll need...let's think....the "Seleucids"

    They don't seem to be an abomination of a faction like their fellows, the Ptolemies, and they have a big variety of units.

    Then, Carthage maybe and then the Gauls and then the Parthians or the Scythians and then some greeks again and then....
