Favourite faction in Medieval 2

[vincent445]

Hello, I'm new to this forum.

I've played a lot of factions, England, France, spain, HRE, Denmark, Venice, and Egypt.

I like them all, but I can't decide what I want to stick with in the long run. I like England's starting position, but France has better cavalry and more variety. Then again, venice has some nice militia.

England and Venice

From those above I'd choose HRE. You get both good cavalry and infantry, and your expansion options are limitless from the start.

If you don't know who to play, Spain is a good choice as well. They are a mix of most of factions. Missle cavalry from the east, greate western knights, good militia as in Italian states and skirmishers corely from Iberia. You get to choose if you want to fight muslims and call crusades or attack christians and face excommunication.

There should be a sticky thread for this topic or something.

I like Sicily. They've got a nice secure-but-central location and a great roster, although their starting economy is a bit poor.

HRE is a monster, I love 'em.

Yes HRE has great units. They have always been my favorite.
