![]() And it can be very profitable playing as the Veneti as well by sacking trade routes in the sea. That's very tough.Īnd as to the Veneti, maybe it is an easy early stage because you fight only towards one direction at a time when advancing in your conquests. Imagine that you have to face one or more factions besides the Samnites. And sometimes the Paeligni or the Frentani or the Equae ( I don't remember the spelling but it is the faction that controls the Alba Fucens city ) can declare war as well.I think it is because they dislike that you attack italic factions. After finishing off the Volsci, maybe it is better to stay on the defensive for the moment and use that time to build up both militarily and economically in order to be ready to face the Samnites ( It is very likely they declare you war and maybe it is best to have at least 3 armies to go on the offensive against them). It is practically impossible to avoid being at war with Volsci. I mean going on the offensive against these two and in the particular order I say. And then dealing with the Volsci after that. And maybe getting a non-agression pact with the Sabines as well. Avoiding being at war with Tarchuna, the other Etruscan factions and the Hernici ( I'm not saying that you should not attack them later but the idea is avoiding it in the early stage of the campaign ) Getting a both non-agression and trade agreement with them right from the first 2 or 3 turns is very important to make sure you don't worry about them for the time being. I think when playing as Rome these are some basic tips specially for the early stage in the campaign: Seleucids if you are a campaign genius, and a great military general.In Rome case I know because I played it lol. Numidia for a challenge, but only if you are a really good at battles. So play Scythia for a challenge but easy to win once you get settled in a proper place. But if you survive, the Seleucids should be just fine, they have some great units. And even if you are skilled, you could go into debt for having a high upkeep. It kinda puts fear into you, even if you're a skilled general, full stacks of armies will be tough to beat, just being one faction against 1-4. Deadly and cheap.įor Seleucids, well everyone already mentions it, but basically they will be attacked from everywhere, or atleast their neighbors have the potential to attack them from everywhere. ![]() ![]() But Scythia has the best early game unit, Horse archers. As for its positioning strategically, it will take a few turns for someone to get to one of your settlements, but it will also take turns for you to send out fresh troops here and there. You may go into debt pretty quickly, even despite how cheap their units are, because the provinces really don't generate enough income, so you will kinda have to migrate into Greece, or the East if you want, but Greece will be easiest. Scythia is a great faction especially for early game, but it has terrible territory economically, and somewhat strategically terrible too. But overall if you're a skilled commander you should be okay, as Numidia has access to archers, which can be deadly for early game if you are good at using them. Numidia has a mediocre starting position, but it can make a few enemies which could run the faction into debt or just losing territory, the enemies I speak of is Carthage, Rome (Scipii Rome to be specific), and Egypt. Imo, it'd say Numidia, Scythia, or Seleucids.
