    Default First thing I will do as a greek faction

    Playing as Spartans, I will try to get Crete and then beat Athens. After that, beat the macedon, beat the ****ing Epirots and finally get Illyria. Then I will go for a great war against the romans.


    How about you?

    Macedon. I will make peace in Greece and ally with Sparta and Athens (I wanna keep them as a defence against rome) and I will wage war the Epirus. When I take care of them it's north to the barbarian dacians, while keeping good links with Thrace, I will look to ally with them as an ally against Dacia.

    I really wanna kick the shizer out of Dacia, I hated them in rome 1 as they would never leave me alone in rome 1 while a fought the Greek cities.

    Macedon all they way, with epirus as a close second, sparta is overhyped and i simply couldnt care less about athens.

    I think Macedon will be my second faction. I like Athens because it has a very rich history. But, like Sparta, its glory days were over.

    If Pyrrhus is in then Epirus gets my vote.

    doesn't Pontus count to the greek factions? :/ (I want to play first with Pontus)

    Else I would choose Epirus as it will be a challenge with the Romans hating them and also all of the other greeks

    Pontus is a free DLC if you pre-order I believe. All the prom queens just got really dissappointed as well

    Epirus/Sparta/Athen are the preorder factions, Pontus will be free for everyone on day one

    I will definately play as Epirus or Pontus first, as Epirus I would try to conquer greece and as Pontus I would try to form a big greek alliance.

    No, Pontus will be released via DLC on day 1 for free. Everybody will be able to download it.

    The preorder factions are Sparta, Athens and Epirus.

    No it's free to everyone who buys the game.
    Aelfwine, then, spoke out and valiantly declared: 'Let us call to mind those declarations we often uttered over mead, when from our seat we heroes in hall would put up pledges about tough fighting; now it can be proved who is brave. I am willing to make my lineage known to all, that I was from a substantial family in Mercia. My grandfather was called Ealhelm, a wise nobleman blessed with worldly wealth. The thanes among that people shall not reproach me for my wanting to get out of this army, to make my way home, now that my lord leader is lying hacked down in battle. To me that is the greatest grief: he was both my kinsman and my lord." Then he moved forward and turned his attention to revenge, so that with his spear he struck a seaman among the army so that he lay dead among the ground, destroyed by his weapon. Then he exhorted his comrades, his friends and companions, that they should advance.

    I may play as either Sparta or Macedon. If Macedon I will conquer Greece, search for allies against Rome in the west, and push east-ward. If Sparta I will attempt to form an alliance with the Athenians and try to conquer coastal cities and island cities or territories to expand, then defend against the damned Romans.
