    Default What Faction Are You Going to Play in RTW:BI?

    Basically what I'm saying is "What faction are you going to play as in Rome Total War:Barbarian Invasion (RTW:BI)?".

    I'm going to be the Vandals because they're versatile

    I'll play the two Roman empires first, then the Sassanids. The world don't deserve to fall into the Dark Ages. The civilized armies shall rise and restore order to the lands of our forefathers! (Role-playing syndrome)

    To hell with the barbarians!

    Have they got Ostrogoths?

    I haven't really been taking interest. I know I will get it, so it's better that I haven't seen all the best bits before I get it.

    I took too much interest in San Andreas and when I got it, I already knew a lot of the cool things and they weren't so cool anymore.

    The Eastern Roman Empire! I will strike out from the impregnable walls of Constantinople slaying both pagan and zoroastrian as I go. The city on the golden horn shall never fall!

    If possible I may also play the Romano-British...
