If there were a God, I think it very unlikely that he would have such an uneasy vanity as to be offended by those who doubt his existence. --Bertrand Russell
I voted for Hungary, thier infantry and archer selection is horrible, thier horse archers arent anything to boast about, and thier eliete cavlary are just as good as any other factions cavlary, thier only slightly redeeming fact is they have Pavisse spearmen, same as armored sargents but only 30 denari cheaper
WOW
lolz.....

It depends of the era, I would say the Turks for the high Era
I have only played three battles in medieval2 multiplayer, but I voted for the Moors. They seem to lack decent infantry, and their unit selection is smaller than the other factions if I remember correctly.
Aztecs FTW....errr FTL![]()
I'd say Portugal, they have almost no original units... its a clone from spain with diferent colours...
(And its Portugal not Portagul)

Moors, just like Numidia in RTW.

cheap enough to upgrade pretty much everything - camels, decent light cav.. much like thrace - an underused faction, not underpowered.
The Moors get Dismounted Christian Guards which are about equivalent to Conquistadors. They also have Urban Militias, Turag spermean, and Sudanese Tribesman which are cheap and good line holders.
Plus they surprisingly don't get that many units with "Combat bonus in Deserts". Don't get why people are saying they have bad/average infantry.

And Moors get camels, ignore their stats seriously they own vs cavalry.
Depends on era and florin amount - at 10k it's a joy to face off against scotland, france, timurid or mongol. Amazed somebody would say portugal as it's one of the best mp factions in any era and at any money.
In team gmes aztecs are very hard to counter if the ally gives good cavalry support.
Yup, Moors.
Timurids are deadly, as they were in real life.
Death be not proud, though some have called thee
Mighty and dreadful, for, thou art not so.
No No No No No No No No No No No!!!!
As TubbZ said, Moors own, dis. Christians are perhaps the strongest swordsmen in the game, someone should check their stats. Only dis. Imperials with weapon ups do better.
Also, camels really do give cav a walloping, but only cav, if you get spears stuck in they wont be as effective.
My opinion btw, Aztecs can be useful in team games, as their inf scare other inf, but in a 1 vs 1, Aztecs or Timurids would gmv.
