The Best Nations

I really like Egypt..You make so much money and constant war with them. Antioch(sp) makes 6000 florins per turn for me and I have 12 enemies and no allies on h/h and i'm still winning :)

If i were you Warluster, I would choose one of the first six playable factions (whichever gives you the best first impression) at a short campaign. Win it and see what you think. I chose Spain and wasn't dissapointed. It's up to personal preference.

I don't like the short campaigns personally... I hate games to be over so fast.

TIMURIDS!! Because of ELEPHANTS!!!

but since you cant play timurid usually without mod... I dunno they are all good...

But MOORS are fun... I love camels!!!

Xaziv, you wouldn't be related to Mithrandir, would you?

Egypt was one of my favroite factions actually. They get veery good medium infantry that can be used to the end of the game. The only thing with them is the mongols and the timunds and such. I find egypts archer line up very lacking compared to all faction and it hurt me abit during the mongol invasion.

However unlike cathloic nations, by the time your actually fighting them you NEED heavy infantry since dismounted fudal knights becoeme hard to counter. Other then that, they are pretty fun and i even wrote a guide on them in the guides section.
