Which faction are you going to be playing as?
The title is pretty self explanatory. When we finally get our greedy little hands on the beta, what faction are going to play when you first load up the game?I myself can't wait to get my hands on Bactria, they are such a different army to the others in the game at the models are actually beautiful, not that the other skins aren't amazing aswell. There is just something about Bactria that draws me too them. So which faction will you play as?

I join the ever-growing community of Bactria-lovers. However, after the amazing preview, I must say that the Tsorims are almost as good...Silver medal, no doubt.
Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
You haven't seen all the factions... and I must say that my favourite right now was not among the ones shown so far...
I'm still not here
Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
Bartix, of course. Failing that, the Seleucids look pretty damn good too, but all the factions previewed so far have been awesome.
Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
I will probably play as the Romans first and then try Bactria or one of the Successor states. Hopefully by the time I finish two or three campaigns, the real version will be out (or pretty close to it).
Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
Will probably go for Seleucids, as my sig image suggests.
Hope Thracians are in there

Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
I'll play a Roman faction, as befits my imperialistic drive.

Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
i'll have to go with bartix to.
Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
i'm gonna go for Bactria. Seleucids will be too hard of a start to begin playing again. since i havent played the game in 5 months. waiting for beta or RTR 6.0 (please dont stone me).
Bactria must be amazing. Interested in their siege engines/artillery. also excited about the mix of persian bows, Greek heavy inf, persians cav, and good javelineers (ifi recall it correctly)
Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
So many choices, so little time ...
I think i'll have to let fate decide which faction I'm gonna play. Once I have seen all the factions, I'll be picking my favourites and then: coin-tossing it is.
...
Problem is, I like all the previews so far ... It is gonna be a hell to pick a faction.

Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
You'll need a d20, not just a coin :)

Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
Oh yeah, got a point there. But where in the name of Baal am I going to find a d20? d6 is easy enough. So, 3 d6 and a coin...Originally Posted by eadingas
Very confusing math is. :)

D20s are easy to buy in every RPG accessories shop. Also, you can find a number of dice generators online :)

Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
And what about the most interesting secret faction no one seems to have identified so far? Is that your personal favourite, Eadingas?
Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
Nah, it's one of the old ones (not that I confirm there being any new ones! :), we just didn't have a preview of it yet.
I'm still not here
Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
I'm gonna pick one of the barbarian factions and mass inf :)
Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
I think the Aedui or Germanic tribes, maybe i will try the samartians
Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
The romans, tsorim, baktria or pontus, I still can`t decide.

You can use the random number generator of any scientific calculator, that gives a random number between 0,001 and 0,999. The formula is simple:
1+[INT(20*RND)]
Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
my swabian (suebii) horde will sweep over the dirty "civilizations" of all other men.
now i'm here, and history is vindicated.
Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
I'll be playing as Romans first, followed by the germanic faction whatever it turns out to be called.
Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
Bartix probably. Pontix and maybe Hellenix then after that. Certainly some non-previewed factions have my interest too though.
Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
No, pontix suix. Go with romix
Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
well, looking back at all previeuws, and the ones ihavent sene yet. i'm gonna got for romans, trosirm and all greeks except teh ptolomaics, dunno why, hate the region after RTW probably
Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
bactria. only bactria
Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
barbarians first, definitely. i love the look of those units, esp the soldurii (german?)
then seleukids, or possibly ptolemaii. It's unfortunate that egpyt was so lame in vanilla, because i loved playing those faction in MTW (turks, almohads etc), very differnt game playing as some of the lighter, middle eastern units.
also, i can't wait to see what's being done about more of the eastern units, armenians, parthians etc
Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
Aedui first and Baktria in second but maybe I will change my mind after seeing the others factions !
Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
Aedui!,I will accomplish what the Gallic peoples should of done when they had the chance...DESTROY ROME!

Re: Which faction are you going to playing as?
