Try Saba, they look very interesting, never done it myself!
This space intentionally left blank.

EDIT: to add, the getai have the best infantry in the game......

Hvil i fred HoreToreA man who casts no shadow has no soul.
I'd go along with Sab'yn!
Good position to start in, but it get's harder once you're around 250 B.C.
Saba is very interesting, as you have quiet an isolated starting Position to build up your economy, but sooner or later you end up in a war against AS and the Ptolies, which is quiet hard...![]()

About Epeiros I can only say, that they are quiet easy, if you can blitz the Maks in the first few turns with your starting army and keep the Romans away fram Taras.
I hope this helps you a little bit.
Did I mention the Swebos really rock the game. Right now I´m rolling over the romans...![]()

hmm, your sweboz comments really tempt me....
but the saba seem pretty nice...

I've been playing Lusotana, Makedonia and Saba; would recommend all.Next will most probably be Sauromatae.

Mouzafphaerre is known elsewhere as Urwendil/Urwendur/Kibilturg...

I´m quite sure you can´t recruit phalnxes in arabia. Just some Red Sea Hoplites in your capital city.
A good strategie to kill phalanxes is to pelt aproaching phlanxes with arabian slinger and archer spearman, pin them down with the named spearman and flank them with red sea light infantry or your general... Best keep some cav beheind to kill the routing enemy troops, so they will not come back.
I hope this was a little bit usefull.![]()

My first 1.0 campaign is an Epirote one, but it's just a teaser. Serious stuff will begin when I start a Parthian campaign... Aegean factions are a good choice if you have not played EB for long, IMO.
