i like the dacians, they always seem to do ok when i'm playing in that region so i thought i'd chek them out.
They've got the usual barbarian troops warband, archer warband, chosen archers chosen swordsmen etc. which is all good. They also get falxmen, barbarian noble cav and seige engines. Pretty good mix and not the worst starting position (ok it probably is one of the worst but at least it's a challenge).
