Actually it's pretty fun to play as the barbarians - very simple tactic; train a massive army of sword wielding, naked warriors, throw Chariots against the Roman lines to disrupt them, then sack & pillage, LIKE A TRUE WARRIOR
@PhalangitePower Think about how brutal and gruesome the fighting would be! And chances are you would probably die! Although I kind of get your point I'm fine with the now haha!
Celts are coo *hand claps* but of all barbarians Germans simply annihilate in both this game and real life germanians as a matter a fact the Gauls feared the Germans so bad much of them from who lived in upper Italy and lower Gaul went to the Romans for help and gave up their independence while they were at. Brute Strength lol Germans were far bigger, tougher and way more physically stronger and more powerful then the Gauls. in campaign a 5 yr old could easily conquer Italy with no tactics......
The Gauls destroy, they had brute force and cunning but not the best battle tactics. You take that brute force and add strategy to it and it's easy as hell to conquer the Julii. Then once you have that foothold run around the forests with your armies to catch the SPQR family members off guard, take rome. and then hold those because scipii and brutii will attack, after their armies waste away on your frontier, take their cities.
@masonhales It's not that they were oblivious to how the outcome of the war would end up, the reason they challenged Rome was to show them that they wouldn't just step aside and let the Romans push them around, they would die before they'd let another people come into their lands, burn their forests, and disrupt their lives.
"There can be no peace! no peace with Romans! Men of stone and iron and LIES! They put us to sleep with golden promises and when we wake, everything we had is gone..."
@dandashem I'm well aware of the differences between Mel Gibson's half assed interpretations of the middle ages and the ancient times. I was merely trying to comedically interpret the feelings this song gave me.
@MasterofMayhem1394 Yeah, that part is a big bother... plus, I like making my capital city feel super strong and developed. Once you start pumping out High Kings Halls all over the place you're all like :/
@EdikShepherd This is true. Have a look at Amazon Total War, it adds cool new factions and makes the barbarian ones stronger (I think they go up to 4 tiers, with some more units).
They take our sons and turn them into little Romans HA! So we fight to keep what is ours. What must stay ours! There can be no peace. No peace with Romans; Men of stone, and iron, and lies! There can be only War!
"Before my grandfather's grandfather was born, this was our land. These are our good places. Our gods live here: In the trees and the rivers. They watch over us. We are happy. We hunt, we love, we have families, homes, a good life. But sometimes we must fight. The Romans disturb the gods: They burn the forests! They take what is ours: wives, children, land! And the Romans talk about how they will help us, and protect us. They put us to sleep with golden promises. When we wake all we had was gone
Cool song

@MasterofMayhem1394 You mean not the easiest! They're not bad factions, so to say, just a lot more challenging to play as.
