    Default What factions have you played 1.0 campaigns as?

    Let's say at least 10 years worth of a campaign is needed to qualify, but which factions have you played as? You can vote for as many as you like, but you can only hit "vote" once - you can't go back and vote again or differently later.

    Also, please limit this to your 1.0 gaming experience.

    Cartage is the most long for me until now. Rome and Pahlava for quite some years. Other factions i still have to try except to look at the new generals

    Only KH for me. Though i keep starting my campaigns over and over again. As i keep modding my EB installation. It's starting to dawn on me that modding really is somewhat of an addicting sickness, because once you start, it seems you can't bring yourself to stop. So instead of just enjoying yourself by playing, your always tinkering with things to try and implement new things or change certain other aspects of the game; for no other reason ( at least for me ) than to just to get the satisfaction of getting whatever your trying to achieve done and actually bring it to a working state and as a side note perhaps make the whole experience even more enjoyable, as one perceives it anyway.
    Bah!!

    Lusotana - Almost done
    Makedonia - Going very well
    Saba - Not much advance yet
    Sauromatae - Will restart it. Maybe I'll switch to BI and have them horde

    Getai - abandoned due to auto-calc issues with the Maks (autocalc campaign)

    Arverni - completed, with the Romani wiped out of existence. Game crashed for some reason after obtaining the victory screen.

    AS - wiped out Ptolemies, control Baktra, more or less in progress.

    Hayasdan - A salute to Foot and everyone involved in the creation of the Hay experience. It is the best campaign I ever had!
    A very interesting campaign. Controlled the heartlands of the AS (everything East from Tarsos up to Persepolis), conquered all Ptolemaic holdings outside of Egypt. Controlled Alexandreia itself. Abandoned due to sheer amount of senseless battles that were waged aganist me (odds 2:1 or better for me). For all practical intents, the campaign was won.

    Romani - current campaign. I am dominating Europe, so a victory is at hands.

    All compliments to the EB team. It is a wonderful experience.

    I played Baktria to conclusion, am about one turn away from finishing up as the Getai. I started off 1.0 with Carthage, but it crashed just as I beseiged the next to the last Roman city . Great mod!

    I'm trying a Roman, Carthaginian and Selucid campaign, all at the same time. The Selucid is furthest along and also the most successful. I just love their unit roster

    Right now I'm mopping up the remains of the Saba in southern Sudan, as well as assembling three armies to take out Armenia before they get ideas and attack me when I don't expect it.

    Well, in chronological order (difficulty settings are VH/M):

    KH - all of Greece taken-except Rhodes and Mytilene-plus a couple of provinces in Asia Minor and Tylis.

    Epeiros - I own all of Greece north of Athens and Thermon, Illyria, Dardania, Magna Graecia, Stalemate around Capua... The situation is Epic

    Pontos - AS got pawn'd in Asia Minor Only Tarsos,Halikarnassos & the other Ptolemaic city (Ptolemaioi are allies for now) remain to be conquered...(Excellent campaign)

    Romani - Started for the sake of historical expansion...

    Makedonia - Blitzed everything in southern Greece and then Epeirus... Every provinc south of the Danube is mine - except the northern illyrian province. Last time I remember loading the campaign (iirc around 247 BC) the Getai unleashed a fullstack of troops in Thrace... Not really a problem...

    Baktria - My favourites ... I've expanded in some AS territories, Pahlava and Sakka are killing each other since the start of the campaign. Going slowly now as I reached a stalemate. The further I go into AS lands the better the armies...Time to recruit a new army (Mind you, I'm the only enemy of AS and the empire throws everything at me... )

    Getai - I were always fond of them... Going good... The tribes will soon be united.

    All these campaigns...I just can't play one faction at a time...I always have several going and choose each time which to play...

    Started first campaign as Saba, where I got quite a lot of training on how to deal with phalanxes with light infantry. . .
    Next campaign was Getai. Using my Saba anti-Phalanx tactics with Getai infantry is AMAZING!!! I sliced through them like they're soft butter.
    Saba is a bit more of a challenge, what with having to wade through endless stacks of phalanxes either way you go (and none of those cheap, lethal Dacians), but quite rewarding when you wind up with capitals of both grey and yellow death. . .

    Cool Re: What factions have you played 1.0 campaigns as?

    Romani on vh/vh I restarted the campaign at around year 200 because I read the battles work better on med setting. My present Romani campaign is set to h/m and I am enjoying it I can sometimes convince my enemies to make peace.
