So that the game is a challenge, and it is very hard to fight a two front war. Expensive units just makes the game more realistic.

Tell me about it im Rome and fightinh both gallic tribes and the Carthaginians ( for the medit islands) and Epirotes after i kicked them out of south italy they marched norht along the coast towards italy fortunatly i spotted them doing so and quickly grabbed the rebel town that blocks the route into italy. How long can the crappy garrison of conscipts last?

I like the unit costs the way the are makes it nice and challenging

and think although it can be a bugger been 10 Mn short of what i need to build a building its great fun

remember that the recruitment speed has been doubled de facto because of the 4 season system (which is, btw., AWSOME). if you play on very hard you're going to have quite a challenge with economically weaker factions meanwhile the AI is capable of recruiting huge armies.

Rome is a bit too easy. Try a small faction like Koinon Hellenon or Pontos. I'm playing with the former, much more challenging than playing with the Romans.
