[Factions] Which are your favourite(s)?

Simple as that, really, everyone has now had plenty of time to play EBII and try out as many or as few factions as they like.

Which are your favourites, and why? Are they the same as the ones you were looking forward to when the previews were happening?

Which factions do you think will be improved over time by expansion of their rosters and addition of reforms and other events?

I voted for the Greek factions. They are well rounded and have a lot of potential. I also played Hayasdan recently but they really need some more units that can match the heavy armies of the Diadochi. I had the longest play with the Bosporan Kingdom. They have such a unique location with Scythian and Greek influences. They are prolly my favorite.

I voted for the triumvirate of Arche,Carthage and Pontos.

I've always loved these factions; no idea why, but the Seleucids have to be my no.1 faction, with Carthage closely behind. It's always been like this, no matter the game

Haven't played much Pontos as i think their roster is lacking atm. So definetly hoping for extra stuff there. Not to mention the late units for Arche and Carthage... In EB the late's for these 2 factions were insanely good looking on the battlefield. Damn, maybe i should play EB again

I remember reading the Lugiones preview many times over http://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showth...w-The-Lugiones

Starting off as a tribe, the struggle for a king to emerge, uniting the tribes with endless rebellions appeals to me for some reason. I'm interested to see what plans they have for them.

Generally my favorites are the new factions and the edge of the map factions.

Arche Seleukeia is my favorite faction, campaign-wise...

However, Romani is the most entertaining faction on the battlefield. (with honorable mentions to Karthadastim, Koinon Hellenon, Sweboz and Pahlava xD)

I don't think many of these factions are fleshed out enough, so I only voted for factions that I felt had a more complete unit roster. The Pritanoi, for instance, does not make my list, but factions like the Arverni and Makedonia do to an extent. I realize, however, that the mod is incomplete in its current version (2.01) and that more units are to be added.
