like what? 

LegendofTotalWar does a amazing one on carthage on same challenge, but his is on very old patch where you can abuse free elephant generals like crazy.

I haven't seen any others which even come close. Which is why I'm uploading

Volound's Shogun 2 campaigns are the best, there are no rome 2 videos which can compare.

If your doing total war mode, Pontus is hard as fuck its more or less instant wipe. Seljuks while looking cool, presuming you have to disband their vassals could be hard also.

Oh you mean hardest campaign possible? I meant hardest campaign that is actually on youtube.

Even without clients, selecuid start is huge and they 100% have the best unit roster in the game. So I think I could do it pretty easy in total war mode.

I think Pontus would be harder in total war mode than epirus. But its just a matter of searching for a starting stratergy that works, think I could find one.

I've actually did some "this is total war" campaigns in old patches (which was alot easier). And I know its possible to do:

Lustinani (relocate to africa)
Nervii (relocate to britain)
Baktria
Iceni (easiest)
Sparta (relocate to africa)

But relocate stratergies aren't as fun, and niether is sitting in britain completely safe. This is why I picked epirus ;)

[Andswaru]

All of those except perhaps the Lustinani seem "easy enough" (im not underestimating the challange total war mode brings just considering it relatively).

But yes, Epirus is an actual fun campaign even in normal mode since Allies are hard to come by till your strong enough to wipe everyone anyhow.

Watched them all so far, interesting to see, love how the ai keeps giving out free unit wipes by fucking about with ships.

Yeah with WoS patch 16.1 they added new transport ships which are alot weaker, but once again did not update the AI to fully consider this fact it would seem.
