    Strangely enough, I don't think I've ever come face to face with the Spanish... although they did stupidly attack my huge fleet as the Julii. A little way into the war I quit the campaign and started a new one, I was getting quite bored of it.

    I hate all clans that use tons of horse archers. In castle sieges it is very frustrating to get them. They keep bounce back and fourth from the town center, shooting all the way. I wish I had some shotgun...

    Fortunately I don't really see AI use a lot of them, though. I would just blame (vote) Parthia.

    Without a doubt egypt, if u cant counter them early they grow into a superpower with seemingly endless armies.Then theres also those archer chariots they have, very mean units those.Playing as them is also the last thing i would do cause theres not much of a challenge.

    Egypt here too. In the mid-game playing with seleucia, they brought armies composed exclusively of desert cavs, archers and chariots. Too fast and sneaky for my hoplites and pikemen. It took me a LOt of mercs to take them down.

    After you get the trick of fighting them there isnt much problem.

    But they are one of the hardest ones.
    Numidia is also a sneaky one.

    Most iritating, dont have one. Most stupid is Brutii & Scippi, sending so many Hastati that always run away and are run down by calvery, by the thousands. Their also pretty annoying.

    In my game as Sythia - The Germans who held me in Russia for 80 years

    As Julii - Britions just because they never let me land on Brittion, I only wanted to talk...

    As Carthage - Numidia just because of how fricking huge Numidia is

    As Armenians - Selucids and Egyptions tie because they allied against me after THEY attacked one of my fleets

    I really hate factions using elephants or horse archers.With these two units,perhaps only 150 mm anti-tank cannon and MG42 machine gun can help me out.
