What factions have you played 1.0 campaigns as?

[Teleklos Archelaou]

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.

[Hax]

-Baktria

-Koinon Hellenon

-Arche Seleukeia

-Epeiros.

That's it for me.

[Birka Viking]

Aedui
Sweboz
Pahlava
Lusotannan

[Obelics]

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

[have I already sayd? love the new Garamantines!]

[beatoangelico]

Baktria and Romani. Waiting for 1.1 for a serious Makedonia campaign

[Strategos Alexandros]

Aedui, Ptolemaioi and Quarthadastim. Quarthadastim for longest.

[Lysander13]

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!!
**Must stop reading threads in the scriptorium!!**

[Gebeleisis]

Getai here!

[Hooahguy]

Baktria and Getai for me!

[anubis88]

Kart-Hadast, Arche Selevkia, Ptolemaioi....

I just love factions with a wide range of units

[woad&fangs]

Oops, I didn't see the ten years bit. In that case I've only managed to last ten years or more (250 BC) with the Avernii. I keep having a CTD outside of Arretium so I'm taking a break for now and playing as the Sauromatae.

[MM83]

Well, I played the Swebos, Casse, Getai and Sauromatae. I like those underdogs!
MFG MM83

[Bava]

3 full campaigns with Baktria (favourite), Maks and KH. And only three Ctds


Edit: Woooot. Baktria´s second!

[polluxlm]

One short Romani campaign on H battle. Gave it up for the obvious reason.

Currently 50 years into Makedonia.

[Mouzafphaerre]

.
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
.

[d'Arthez]

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.

[Tellos Athenaios]

AS up to 217 BC or so.

[Geoffrey S]

None.

[Theodotos I]

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!

[anubis88]

None.

Shame on you

[Victor1234]

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.

[Menander of India]

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...

[Parallel Pain]

Only Saka Rauka

[Xehh II]

Saba
Baktria
Casse
Carthage
KH

Baktria was my favorite.

[Menander of India]

@Parallel Pain

Aye...but that was an empire and a half I have to say...

[Ayce]

Only Getai (currently second tied with KH and Baktria, yay :D) - when I finish it, I'll start a Pahlava or Qarthadast.

[bovi]

Pahlava and Qart-hadast here. Pahlava wasn't on 1.0 per se, but rather an internal version between 0.8x and 1.0. It was a build not extremely far from 1.0, so I let it count .

Lysander, you are very right that modding makes you tinker instead of playing. None of the team have really spent a lot of time playing campaigns, I think.

[MarcusAureliusAntoninus]

I'm suprised that Hayasdan isn't getting a bigger vote, considering how much they changed from v0.8 to v1.0.

[konny]

One Sweboz, stopped when the Romans started to swarm across the Alps while loosing Capua and Arpi to Epeiros.

One Carthago, started new because of the Aetna killing my favorite character and because of new houserules. Stopped the second one when neither the Lusotanns nor the Romans wanted to play with me but endless stacks of the yellow death came out of the desert.

One Roman. Started new because I had changed the trait file. The new one is still going on, now about 238/9 or so (Asina just celebrated his 68th brithday; one of the advantages of the ALX.exe: characters do not die with exact 60).

Several Casse, mainly for testing purpose. But one I did play until the conquest of Britain.

A very short experince with Pontos. Before the next try I have to change the starting army.

Also very short: Getai and Saba. In both I had problems with the bodyguards; that is the FM was always the first, if not alone, at the enemy - and so the first to die. Maybe I'll give them another try after changing the EDU.

Another bit longer with Armenia. That was until AS uses her last three armies to start a war with me instead of defending her cities against the yellow death.

Next on the list: Makedonia, Epeiros or KH. Can't decide which one first.

[skuzzy]

Makedonian campaign ~210BC I believe

and...

Arche Seleukia ~230BC but I must say I haven't enjoyed it nearly as much as most other campaigns I've played.
