hahahah Okin what comic/graphic novel is that from? An yea mass route for barb factions is always worrying xD

It's from a series called Age of Bronze, which focuses on the Trojan War. It's pretty great.

You can always buy the collectors edition. I heard the onager u get with it is better than Rome 2. :mrgreen:

Anyways, which faction u guys planning on playing first? I was thinking Egypt, but when I heard they only did the dynasty thing for Rome and Carthage, I might have to play Rome first.

I'm gonna start with Rome since that's the "main" faction. I always like to start with the "default" faction in TW games. England in medieval, Rome in Rome etc., unless there's a faction I really want to play.
This game isn't about being skillful as much as its about saying things in general chat that enrage people who then go to murder you but in their rage they make dumb mistakes which gets them killed.

Me too. Started with Julii in Rome I, England in Medieval II and Chosokabe (I think they're subject of the tutorial) in Shogun II.

Chosokabe have such good bonuses as well. They're one of the few factions with an economy bonus, and I love using ranged troops.

And of course I played France first in Empire and Napoleon.

Will definitely chose Rome for the start. I'm reading Simon Scarrow's novels at the moment, so this fits.

My first regular (= not tutorial) campaign in Empire was Sweden. They were kinda exotic next to all those usual suspects France, GB, Spain,...

Think it will be Epirus for me. Still, pretty upset about this 1 year per turn they are so set on doing. What is so hard with giving us a choice, so we can play half year per turn atleast?  :|
