    Default Recommended Next Campaign

    I'm curious to hear what campaigns everyone thinks are fun to play. I gave up on my Roman campaign because I didn't feel like going into Germania and destroying the Germans (what had to be done if I was ever going to be able to have them stop attacking me).

    Well, if you're having endless stacks of german warriors coming at you, you should try one of the various money scripts in the "Unofficial modifications" forum.

    As for a new campaign, well... I'd recommend one of the Diadochi (Successors) such as Makedon, Ptolemaioi, Arche Seleukeia, Baktria. I mean, as Makedon, you can get a new Alexander, and really re-do his journey, massacring the Arche as he massacred the Persians...
    Casse is nice too. The beginning is perhaps slightly annoying, since you've got to build up extensively while not having much money, but you have one advantage: you're not at war with the Eleutheroi.

    Depends on your playing style of course, but I think most campaigns can be fun. Try something far away from the Sweboz if you've got enough of them. I recommend Qarthadast, a campaign I've particularly enjoyed.

    I have the most fun when I'm trying to reach some goal in a campaign. Like building the Roman Empire with the Romani. Or reclaiming Alexander's Empire with Makedonia. I had a real fun one, trying to rebuild the Achaemenid Empire with Hayasdan.

    I never played the Romans because of a certain lack of sympathy, so I'm not sure but I think playing a Greek faction would offer you a different style of battles and a new experience. As Epiros (my favorite) or Makedonia you sit in the middle of the world and can go in every direction and choose different enemies (beware, they will choose you too ). I prefer Epiros and Makedonia over KH because I like the strong cavalry but that's a matter of taste. Or choose AS or Baktria and fight eastern foes (sometimes frustating, I hate horse archers... ) if you have moved more in the west before.

    Edit: if you play in the near of AS one of the money-script mods helps to preserve your nerves a lot.

    Hmm, are the people in south west Arabia complete enough to play? I think I'll try them, but if not, I'll do the Ptolemaic Empire. They look pretty fun.

    Edit: Arabia, not Saudi Arabia. Doh. That would be Oman.
