Thread: Favourite Faction

  1. #1

    Default Favourite Faction

    I have to say my favourite faction just down to how challenging and intersting campaign i am currently on with is Imperium Constatne. You have all the roman troops but have to plan much more economy wise. Everything that isn't needed has to be got rid of e.g. i destroyed all churches to enable me to build an army to defend myself from WRE in southern France. At the start constantly on the brink of being anihalted (Burgundi Horde especially) only lost one city to them and took out 12,000 of there army. There location isn't the best considering how exposed they are but it makes it much more interesting i currently have 18 provinces in Nothern Italy, France and Spain, currently eridcating the romans from Spain and the Visgoths from Southern Italy.

    What are other peoples favourite faction + why?

    Traitor! You're not more than a usurper who will be crushed by the legitimate emperor!!!! (although he's an ass****) . Just kidding. I've never tried that faction before, but if you read my words you surely know what my favourite faction is. Rome will flourish again!!!

    I had a go with WRE but it just annoyed me how the ERE attacked me all the time and breaking our alliance. It was fun beating the Visgoths, Vandals and Burgundi.

    ERE. I east WR troops for breakfast, Hunnic HA's for lunch, and for dinner, I eat hordes of the dreaded Gyan-Avspar.
    Arabs are normally the faves, but I swore I wouldn't play as them until they get their proper swords (and I'm ITCHING to play as them, so please show some mercy IBFD team: straight swords is the least you can all do so I can get back to them. the info I provided decades ago is the most)

    Sassanids by far..They are rich and have super heavy cavalries. Also it is fun to fight against Romans.

    Hey ROMANUS, watch out my Savaran is coming ...

    other than losing a general, no serious indigestion resulted. only rightious rage (and their downfall)

    This sentence is from 300 movie, King Leonidas says this while Persian arrows raining on his soldiers. What happened to him is he died under hail of arrows..

    now who reped me? I hope it wasn't because he felt sorry, as I had not seen the ending of 300.

    Now you all know that I love my romans but I have a real soft spot for the sassanids, ssomething about the persian culture that I find very attractive. I find they are virtually my army of choice for online battles and tourneys becasue they are virtually the only army that can cause the romans real grief.

    They are probably way too powerful and will be scaled back a bit in IJV3.0. I suppose it's like having a second favourite football team.

    Cheers All
