    scipii or juli. first, the best when it comes for military and sea but after defeating cartage they lose guidance from senate and must plan on their own. Second , weakest of that three when it come to military, poor provinces to conquer and lot of fighting.

    Now, I've tried the brutii very little, but I'm going with the Julii.

    I'm a relatively good payer and all, but the barbarians....


    Arrgh, I'm like a real Roman! Being so organized all the time actually caused them to be somewhat afraid of things chaotic. Ergo, barbarians.

    I rather enjoyed my Julii campaigns the most.
    My very first one, I had very little revenue on VH/VH going through Gaul. It took me a long time to conquer the province, but it was challenging and I really enjoyed it.

    The second campaign i ever did with the Julii was different in that I loaded all my troops on them barges and sailed up to Greece and its riches. I prevented my fellow romans from getting those riches and managed to defeat the Greeks by siding with the Macedonians. And then eradicated the Macedonian armies...
    with the money you get from that part of the world, your conquests are a lot easier from then on.

    I never really enjoyed playing the Brutii.
    I found the Scippii too easy.

    Hey all,
    I would have t say the julii, its a hard slog all the way through the barbarian lands without any great teched up cities t aim for. You spend most of ur cash upgrading towns, and most of ur good troops are coming from italy. That said my first julii campaign was probably my most enjoyable and challenging campaign with romans, i was eventually defeated by brutii in the civil war ;[

    Cool Re: Hardest Roman faction

    i agree i think juli are the hardest, as the scipi i always take greece and try to nick any other of the provinces the other roman factions head for, and no one is going to attack africa so you are free to attack other areas .
