I played Koinon Hellenon and it was a lot of fun. I actually about lost the campaign. At one time I had control of Corinth, Thermon, and Chalkis, but then to huge Macedonian armies came and besieged Athens and Thermon. I ended up losing everthing but Rhodes. I started a campaign as Rome, but for some reason movement points didn't seem to work right and I had wanted to save them for a more complete version of EB anyway. I loaded a save game from my Greeks campaign before losing Athens and Thermon. This time I successfully defended Athens, but lost Thermon. At that battle of Athens I realized that my hoplites really suck against the Macedonian Pezhetairoi and that Thurophoroi can kill any Macedonian unit if deployed correctly. Now I'm using hoplites and Thureophoroi in equal parts and beating Macedon badly. I've captured Thessaly and Pella. Now they only have Thermon, Mytilene, and a territory to the north of Macedonia. I also likee the Greek ancillaries and ethnicities.
