![]() It's really the combat that is enjoyable, although I love that a little bit of attention has been paid to their look and their equipment (if you can get over how much stuff is wrong or in the wrong place), so torcs, woollen checked pants, suebian knots, the use of iron, the love of bright colours, the coats and so on, it brings alive some of the glimpses left among the poverty of information we (in Northern/Western Europe) have about the civilisations of our ancestors (if such they were) before they were so studiously exterminated by the invaders from the mediterranean. I have to say some of the European Barbarians are a lot of fun. Rome is the most powerful faction in game, which s probably fair because it's reasonable historically and they are the star of the show. generate REVOLTS.An example of my own was a Revolt at Athens where I had to deal with 14.000 rebels and slaves :\ Most people would think that Phalanxes are a problem which is I think is an excessive idea because all you have to do is Bombard them with any missile unit and Outmanuever them with Infantry or Cavalry (Combined Action would be greatly suggested) :)įinally I believe that the only problem you can come across would be the large presence of foreign cultures because they will just, ehhh. ![]() Roman Praetorian Cavalry are an excellent force with the superb Draco ability available to no other faction, but until their acquisition you'll have to rely on Auxillaries which can be recruited in almost the entire European Peninsula.Greatest of all shortages will be the Missile one.You can acquire them through capturing of the Provinces of Hellas or Syria for instance(Generally throughout the Eastern World) that means you will have a hard time over there! Now as you expand your Empire you will notice a significant lack in Missile And Cavalry Forces. Once the Italian Peninsula is secured and Carthage defeated you will have consolidated your Empire and will be having a tremendeous influence over other nations, resulting in diplomatic comfort( Trade Agreements, Non-Agression Pacts, Military-Defensive Alliances).Plus that the Romans field Impressive Research Rates which will give you an edge over your opponents. It fields excellent early Infantry which will allow you to expand quickly. For more help on that side of the game you can also find a couple of guides I co-wrote with Alwyn over on Total War Center here and here. In both cases politics are a bit easier than Rome as you don't start as a republic, so don't have that loyalty penalty. You start at war with the Seleucids, but they have problems of their own which usually keep them busy. Their roster is also decent without too much in the way of gimmicks or units needing special strategies, except for chariots, which can be a bit finnicky but also fun.Įgypt are a solid faction with a decent sized unit roster, easy access to food (which makes it easier to build and upgrade buildings,) a central location with different ways you can choose to expand, and their nearest opponents aren't too difficult. Once you have the isles secured, you have a solid base to then expand into Gaul and beyond. Iceni start in a corner of the map and you can essentially play a short campaign with them just conquering the British Isles. The other two factions I tend to suggest for new players are the Iceni and Egypt. Think we missed one? Give us a Modmail and suggest new Subreddits to add to the lists!
