They have a pretty easy go of it early game where they are and tons of potential to form a large empire before facing off with some of the harder factions. Best starting faction as something to move into barbarian factions would be Pontus. Empire Divided update would have been flawless and I wouldn't have had anything bad to say abot it if it didn't, for some god-awful reason, remove region names. Re: Best Factions to play as for a beginner. The only good thing they did lately was the Empire Divided campaign and the cults, politics, banditry and sanitation systems it brought with itself. Rome II is a great game but Creative Assembly keep randomly destroying it with weird updates that do more harm than good if you buy it, make sure to download the old interface, old faction colours, old graphics and some gameplay mods because currently the game is worse than it used to be. I'm currently busy with just that, by the way: reverting Emperor Edition bollocks to pre-Emperor Edition state. But part of that is probably because of the way I play. Ive already played the game a bit to understand the basics but I would now like to actually play through a campaign. I'm glad they left us tools to revert most of the harmful changes. All Roman factions are positioned in such a way that they can each easily expand into certain areas of the world map, but that is just a suggestion for the player and the default behaviour of the Roman AI a savy player can easily expand any which way and snap up the juicy provinces in the early game (e.g. That said in my case as an 18 year veteran of Total War I have 2500 hours of Rome 2, almost exclusively vanilla (or more recently with one bug fix mod,) and I can honestly say I still find it a fun challenge. Im relatively new to this kind of genre of games and was wondering what faction or race is the easiest one to understand that I can start off with. Fantastic diplomacy and trade, one of the easiest start positions in the game, relatively quick access to elephants and excellent chariots. In the last update they removed region names, which contributed to the bloody immersion more than the entire ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Emperor Edition update). I have heard that Vandals are the easiest barbarian faction, you start off pretty well and have a very tough unit roster. I caught on to just about all the mechanics by my 2nd or 3rd campaign. And the technical side of things is utter nightmare) etc. I guess the sassanids are the easiest then. Shogun 2 is the simplest and easiest to learn. Emperor Edition replaced it (it also replaced cool graphics with ♥♥♥♥♥♥ ones (they call it 'improved'), rich colours with washed-out ones (they call this nonsense 'naturalistic' clearly never been to a museum, otherwise they would know that the old colours were actually more historically accurate than this 'naturalistic' ♥♥♥♥♥), wide building rosters with half-arsed ones (quarries, groves, temples to Vulcan? Everything gone!), amazing Roman-themed user interface with some wet-sugar piece of ♥♥♥♥♥ which is also bloody broken (they say this new interface improves immersion. But can we just buy Rome 2 not the Emperor Edition ? There is no 'standard' Rome II anymore. Originally posted by Daft Funk:Thanks for answer.
