Recommended Difficulty?

**Dubius Cato** · 02-04-2006, 13:48

I know read this somewhere, but I cannot find it, neither here or at TWC, I have read all your guides and such (I think):

Battle difficulty is medium alright, got that, but what is the campaign difficulty EB is designed for, giving you the most realistic campaign/economic balancing?

Thanks.

The better campaign difficulty is Very Hard since it will allow rebels to siege your cities.
Also I think that the better battle difficulty is Hard and not Medium.

Officially: VH for campagne and Medium for battles.

If you want a challenge i would suggest VH/H.

Wasn't it so that you gets bonuses in H or VH battles in patch 1.2?

VH campaign = Ridiculous rebel 'uprisings' even inbetween two cities that have green happy faces. Play as Audiu or Averni and you might even lose a campaign early on VH/M due to 3 rebel stacks spawning every other turn and most of them have 2+ gestae units in them.

This theory has long since been debunked, AFAIK. From what I remember, the bonuses apply to both the player and the AI in custom battles, but work as they are meant to in campaign battles.

Yep its like Cheexsta says.

So VH/M is the difficulty most people play on?

Even experience players?

I`m asking this coz i´m afraid to start on VH/M and end up having heoric victory after heroic victory.

I´m not better player than any of you so if you guys plays on VH/M and have a challenge on the game, i´m cool then... so.. where do you play for get a realistic/challenging game?
