Where to go now?

[Byzantine Emperor]

Thanks for the suggestions guys. Lately, I've just found myself completely frustrated with the lack of troop selection in Rome. The only nation that gets a really decent kick start along the lines of diversity is Germania, and the tech lvl 3 restriction means that I can't necessarily turtle since squalor will kill me.

I think that I'm going to settle on either Seleucids or Macedons. Macedons have the awesome temples, while seleucids have the most diversified unit line-up.

I say Seleucids. They have a very good unit roster, if you live against the Egyptians long enough to use them!

Off topic- Why in the name of all that is holy did the Greeks get stuck with no usable cavalry? :(

Because historically the Greeks were not very good horsemen.

[The Teacher]

go with eygpt, they are strong with money and citys, but they have nice big wide open borders that attract armys like bees round honey. Currently im fighting a way with four of my neighbours ! brill ..
