Re: what the hardest faction to be in EB
I heard Casse was hard from my good friend Eduorius, but once I applied my usual "blitz the nearby ai" tactic I realized that they weren't much harder than the other factions as long as you strike early (which I tend to do).
I imagine the Saka must be hard since they start next to two factions that have habit of conquering the East.

The Pahlav can have a tough start as they are pretty poor, but once you take your first city from the Seleukids then you can recruit more troops, in truth you don't need that many as horse-archers, archers and cataphracts make mincemeat of everything the Seleukids throw at you. After I had taken most of Eastern Iran I suddenly started making lots of money and I set for myself the goal to rebuild the old Persian Empire and start using real big armies, but then the game started constantly CTDing on the AI turn... so I can't continue it
"One of the nice things about looking at a bear is that you know it spends 100 per cent of every minute of every day being a bear. It doesn't strive to become a better bear. It doesn't go to sleep thinking, "I wasn't really a very good bear today". They are just 100 per cent bear, whereas human beings feel we're not 100 per cent human, that we're always letting ourselves down. We're constantly striving towards something, to some fulfilment"
