    Default What faction are you most looking forward to play as in Campaign?

    So tell me, i cant wait to play as teh HRE, they were always one of my favourites in MTW, with there teutonic knights and foot soldiers etc, they just plain kicked ass. I was also a fan of the Byzantiums and the Vangarian Guards.

    England, smashing Scotland and then taking control of the British isles, build up an effective navy and then go from there.

    Then I'll go Scotland and do the same.

    The only faction I beat MTW with was Spain, so I'll play them plus I did have lots of fun playing with Sicily and Aragon in the original game (modded in), but not so much in VI.

    England. Crushing France and seizing western Europe! Although I don't know how it will work out in MTW2.

    Turkey, I just hope they expand the map to the east enough to make it seem more the big country it was/is.

    Of course, If they include Flanders I'll play that first

    Hungary. [Altered the original game shortly after my first few campaigns so as
    to make them playable.] Assuming there is no chance of Balkan factions being
    included, I will quite happily use them to exert some influence over those
    troublesome Croats.

    When Adam delved and Eve span, Who was then the gentleman? From the beginning all men by nature were created alike, and our bondage or servitude came in by the unjust oppression of naughty men. For if God would have had any bondsmen from the beginning, he would have appointed who should be bound, and who free. And therefore I exhort you to consider that now the time is come, appointed to us by God, in which ye may (if ye will) cast off the yoke of bondage, and recover liberty. - John Ball

    France. I only hope they don't give all France to France, as the French kings had little influence in France at the start of the game.

    As I always did in MTW, I'll probably play as the underdog (Scotland, Denmark, Milan, Portugal, etc.). Fun stuff.

    I absolutely prefer 1 prov civs, they are more challenging AND: i always want everything in my empire to be ordered and organized, which is much easier if you build your empire from ground up.
    So probably, Portugal, denmark. Though i'll definitely try Turks (they've got the coolest units and the most balanced military by far imho. At least in mtw 1) and hre (i come from there, so i think i should have played them once at least.

    What a cruel question to ask! There's so many, I can't possibly pick just one! So here's a list instead (and in no particular order):

    Scots
    English
    French
    Egyptians
    Timurids
    Byzantines
    HRE
    Danes
    Castille-Leon (I refuse to refer to them as the "Spanish"; ugh)

    Do we have a full faction list yet?

    I will try England first and then move onto something more exotic like the Egyptians I think.

    Moors, invade Spain reaching western Europe.

Let him not laugh too gladly when the water runs through his fingers, nor stand too silent when the setting sun makes red the veld with fire. Let him not be moved when the birds of his land are singing, nor give too much of his heart to a mountain or a valley. For fear will rob him of all if he gives too much."

    I'd love to play as the Mongols and do something they didn't finish before.

    Duh, England of course!

    The real question is "do I crush France or Scotland first?"

    Always a tough one that
    "I request permanent reassignment to the Gallic frontier. Nay, I demand reassignment. Perhaps it is improper to say so, but I refuse to fight against the Greeks or Macedonians any more. Give my command to another, for I cannot, I will not, lead an army into battle against a civilized nation so long as the Gauls survive. I am not the young man I once was, but I swear before Jupiter Optimus Maximus that I shall see a world without Gauls before I take my final breath."
