Originally posted by nook7I don't care who I get really to be honest. Anything would be interesting. I've had the chance to explore pretty much every kind of nation in one game or another. I suppose an inland nation with elite cavalry might be something fairly new for me, but there doesn't seem to be many inland areas in this game! Dacia and Gaul are about it I think.
You may not be so lucky this time (assuming someone who is royal wants it!)

Should be an interesting game.

Of course troops are not the only indicator of which realms have advantage. I wasn't suggesting they were. I was just curious; both Rome and Sparta were known for their heavy infantry.
