Who do you reccommend as the MOST fun faction? :)

Oo, I loved the Casse. It was a big difference not being thrust into war from the get go. You get to build up and expand, take over the island, and build up again before invading the mainland. It's a fun style. Cool units too, unique barbarians.

And they are definitely colorful, even for Celts.

Koinon Hellenon. Starts with scattered provinces and are surrounded by enemys. But has a good economy and pretty decent troops. Though their no match for the Macedonian phalangites & Calvary .

The question was about the MOST fun, for us.

Of course, everey faction is a real pleasure, a délice !

The funniest is the one who interest you for your mood of the day.
I remember an epic game wis every faction...even the Casse, yes, quite unique !

Depends on your preferred units for the most part, if you like Calvary, Parthia, Saka, Saurmote, hayeatersdan. If you like Phalanxes, Makedonia, Arche, Ptollmies, BabygotBacktria, If you like Greeks without all the phalanx's Koinon Hellenon, If you like a mix of all things, I'd say Carthies but I haven't played them, Getai also has a bit of mixture in units from what Ive seen... If you like Wild half naked-to fully naked men charging around kicking behind, then any of the Barbarian factions, If you like Civilized people who don't do anything intresting but kill everyone anyways then play Rome.

If you're looking for variety, try Rome, Epeiros, Makedon or the Greek cities. They're reasonably central on the map and get to fight a whole load of different kind of factions, with plenty of variety to prevent boredom; that, and they're arguably among the most finished factions.

Right now I have 2 main campaigns going and one extra also, in previous versions, I played other campaigns.
What I can tell you, is the same as everyone: each factions is unique, each enjoyable in it's own way, bla bla bla bla bla...
Now, I'm diging my Parthian Campaign but, if you want a campaign that really makes you tick and feel big once you succed, try the Hayasdan... It's awsome and your units are worse than your Phalava counterparts... Also, you don't have any money. Just awsome :)

Cheers...

Exactly,it depends...of the mood...
Do You want a challenge?Take Lusotans,Sabyn
Do you want to build up and make an invation,take the Casse...

It depends completely on what kind of units you want and like. I, for one, despise horses. Especially when there's archers mounted on them, but horses in general stink. Therefor I value infantry based nations much higher than cavalry based ones. If your opinion is the opposite, however... my advice might not mean that much. If you are as enlightened as I am, my word shapes the truth.

So, with that said, I will wholeheartedly recommend every "barbarian" faction, especially the Sweboz or Arverni (or Aedui, they're just like Arverni except the latter are the "superior ones"

). They're LOADS of fun, and seriously, can you say no to men like the Gaesatae? No frigging way! Go for it, dude.

Just played a short Lusetanni campaign, and that was quite fun. Managed to take 5 settlements with my starting armies, but was 100 000 in debt...
It was only after I had 6 towns that I even started turning a profit.

The Lusetann light cavalry (the ones with face-masks) are amazing. They seem pretty light for a bodyguard, but they more than make up for it with the fact that they hav AP secondary weapons, and do about 15 damage. I managed to slaughter Carthie sacred band cavalry with them who have far higher defence, simply because I did so much more damage than them.

Saba is deffinetly the most fun, for me.
Casse looks to me also quite exotic...

I like the factions wich are more isolated in the begining... have to face large rebel stacks.

I think all the factions are fun, after all !
