434 or 463ad Campaign?

[Riothamus]

Wondering which campaign are people gravitating to the most and why..

[charles the hammer]

463 i like the wre position its more solid than the 434 making it a little easier to kepp your cities in line so i can focus on expanding

[Silent Gent~]

I like the 434 campaign so that I can lead the Western Empire with Flavius Aetius.

[The10thLegion]

434, it seems harder.

[Sigma]

434 Because it comes earlier than 463, yes I know this is the worst reason given so far, but that is why I do it.

[Octavius-Augustus]

Ever since I started playing Rio's mod, I've started only the 463 campaign... I play WRE so maybe I liked the stable position they have in 463. I also think it's a more balanced campaign (the only real big factions at the start are ERE and Sassanids and they fight each other). Still, I'll not be voting in the poll until I at least try the 434 campaign, it does seem interesting to play with Aetius..

434, as a WRE player I prefer the harder position, 463 campaign as them is far too easy in my opinion

*facepalms upon realising Rio will make the WRE even more difficult now*

i just find that the economical situation can easily be changed, and with all-roman units available for recruitment the armies are generally stocked with superb soldiers that the barbarians cant really contend with

Wht I was thinking doing next was to make barbarian good cavalry available right away..after completing treasure chest and in large towns, thus some advantages. Whatcha think?

[JERUSALEM]

It is better to end up with two Roman faction! for this purpose 463 campaign is better

[Magister Militum Flavius Aetius]

434 is definitley going to be the one I'll play. Romans are in an advantage with the great Flavius Aetius

[Antiochos VII Sidetes]

The latter. Restoring Roma back to its original extent is most satisfying. However, I'd like more turns per year; I want something concrete established by 476. Also, can Odoacer be added in?

[Constantius]

Why ? I'm alone here everybody has mentioned the Occidentalis ,but 463 Orrientalis ; I get to be Zeno ,and send Basiliscus against Gaserics heathen Vandals (Only this time my fleet doesn't get burnt )

[cubic]

I havent tried the 436 campaign yet, so im going to vote later. So far i love the 463 campaign playing as Soissons. Cool unit roster including great local troops for discount price

..Odoacer is in there already as a hidden family member under the WRE in the 463ad Campaign

As Odoacer took his place in the seat of honour,Theoderic stepped forward and ,with one tremedous stroke of the sword ,sliced him down from collar bone to thigh."he couldn't of had a bone in his body " Theoderic laughed ;John Julius Norwich .
Is Theoderic hiding in there somewhere ?
