Is there a particular difficulty level one should play with this mod?

[Casusbelli07]

I have just started a game as the romans and in some mods on other games if you increase/decrease the mods default difficulty level it can disturb what is considered the natural intent of the mod. Is this the case for ER?

If not, can some one maybe explain a bit about the variations on the difficulty levels? (for example on VH/VH carthage and the greek city states jumped on me immediately as i was plugging away at the epirots, would this also happen in a lowere difficulty level?) This mod is so tight

To my knowledge ExRm doesn't have a difficult lvl that you need to play with, use whatever you feel. In my campaigns I nromally play VH/VH, It just gives the AI cash injections and unit bonuses. I don't know if you were playing as the romans or Macedon, but If your roman yes there is a great chance that Carthage, and greeks from sicily will launch amphibious raids.

I like the Hard campaign difficulty because it adds enough cash to help the smaller factions be competitive. I play on the Medium battle difficulty because it gets much harder to rout enemies - higher difficulties make factions with weaker units much hardier to play.

I find H campaign to be the best balanced, and the battles are balanced for medium. If you want more challenge on the battle map, strict house rules can usually provide it.

I forgot to add in VH all AI factions will want you dead, In VH the untis get attack and moral bonuses.
