    There's a point in every game when it's just not interesting to continue. I feel I can steamroll anybody, just don't bother to.
    Played as England, Moors and Byzantium (now).

    I always feel bad when i reach the limit of their real expansion, going anywhere else seems stupid unless i can think of some kind of excuse like trying to remake the Roman empire as Byzantium.

    Only one, as HRE (and in only 60 turns).

    Right now I have campaigns going as France, HRE, Milan, Hungary, Venice, Scotland and Poland. I’ve had a hard time deciding who to specialize in!

    0, played as England and Byz. Shelved the game due to bugs and balance problems shortly after 1.1. patch. Looks like the 1.2 patch may help fix many of these, at least hopefully.

    1 as england. Currently playing as Sicily. Ended up blitzing a few territories off the start. Took Durazzo and Cagliari within a turn or two, ended up getting several units of troops (as rewards from the council of nobles) which sent my budget into the negatives. I received 4 units of Mailed Knights which increased my expenses by 1000 florins!. Since there was no way to rebalance the budget without disbanding the new troops, I utilized those new troops and several others to quickly take Ajuccio and Florence. When I have the troops prepared, I have eyes on Tunis and then off to Timbuktu for lots of gold.

    On the dipomacy scene, the princess blitzed Italy to get trade agreements and alliances with the Pope, HRE, Venice and Milan.

    Still playing through my first (English) long campaign. I have 49 territories, but I haven't taken Jerusalem just yet to claim the Win, because the Pope owns it and I wanted to explore the New World a little bit before getting myself excommunicated. Just landed the first troops in Florida in turn 203 so I will need to get cracking.

    Just short ones so far... I like the more immediate objectives rather than the capture 50 provinces thing...

    Also I use the community fixes/mods and I have a tendency to restart a short campaign after a significant update to any of those...

    Once the 2 update patch is out I might finally give a long campaign a go...

    Finished my first one as England just the other night. I was using a combination of Ultimate AI/M2TW Lite and Darth's battle formations mods, so waiting on patch 1.2 before I start another one so I can play a vanilla game with all the fixes promised to see how it plays out. Probably will play as England again just to compare vanilla 1.2 with 1.1 modded version I was using.

    Byzantines first game, then Spain second game, then Venice third game. Stopped playing then until the second patch. Thinking of England for game 4.

    4 long ones, but I intentionallt made extra conditions for victory like, no attacking fellow catholics or no sacking, always releasing, no exploits etc.

    I think an Iron-man set of rules would be good

    If I could vote 2 England, Scotland. Haven't played long enough for the New World. Waiting for the next patch before I start another long campaign but unsure of the next faction.

    Scots, Portugal, Moors.

    Although it's true - at some point, when you dominate the map with like 30 or 35 provinces, the game gets tedious pretty quick.
    By that time, chances are that your reputation has tanked, so you'll be constantly at war with everyone and it just is a matter of churning out enough troops to wear down the opposition, finally keeping that last region you need for the little end movie.

    Eng, Scot, Spain, and started Russ, & Biz... The game is great bugs and all play, play, play thats the way . I do feel that I can steam roll the game but that is not what it is all about! Build up your capital city with all building, strategically place your castles, fight every battle yourself, go rebel hunting, crusading, a good mix of what troops, princess, merchants, assassins, diplomats, ect... there is just so much to do .

    Haven´t ever finished a campaign and I probably never will. The long camp requirements are ridiculous: "take XX provinces" etc etc, bah! Like the only measurement of a successful kingdom/ empire is conquest?! The short camp rec are too easy though. And it´s always about destroying factions, personally I don´t like it.
    I roleplay my games hardcore and when my objectives are met I quit. Usually I´m done in 100-150 turns. I´ve never played with cannons and muskets since I´m done with the game before that. I miss eras, glorious achievements and the ability to play this game with a more cultural feeling.

    I'm not able to vote, but to date I've only finished one campaign as England (VH/VH). I'm currently about 30 moves into Egypt on VH/VH.

    I am not allowed to vote. But finished as Turks, England, Spain, Russia and Denmark so far.
