Scythians are easterners with barbarian setup, the things one can do with that wide choice of cavalry is insane, want to arrow down an enemy? You can choose, cheap light horse archers or armored ones to go on en melee; want to chop down heavy units? Here, this girls eat cataphracts for dinner. Want to crush through? You have light cataphracts. You can't not love them. Ps: waiting for the eastern factions review, campaign with armenia was my favorite thing back in the day Ps 2: you called the thracians pushovers TWICE, don't be surprised if a blue haired screaming barbarian tries to cut off your head

Spain s'roster is absolute garbage except 2 units. The only faction to not have archers wtf. It was made out of mockery!

[@Widzelli]

Their roster is pretty pitiful, but I’d also point out that they have close access to the balearic slingers, which are probably top 3ish missile units in the game. Seriously they are so good with their armor piercing. And while I like archers in general more, slingers aren’t terrible. But Spain is definitely not a powerhouse lol. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!

[@frisianmouve]

That's why I invaded Spain as the Seleucids once with a full stack of armoured elephants for the lulz. Haha no flaming arrows to panic them, deal with it. Edit: and Carthage doesn't have archers either

Should Thrace be on the barbarian list?

[@Widzelli]

I decided to group Thrace with the Greek/Hellenistic factions because they have Greek culture in the game, meaning they suffer a culture penalty for taking barbarian settlements but not Greek ones. Also, they have the HUGE capability of building up to tier 5 in all their cities. Both of those things seemed to make Thrace more of a Greek faction to me, but they certainly have characteristics of a barbarian faction. If you want to see a Thrace guide, I will have one uploaded very soon.

[@WrathOfTheShaft]

@@Widzelli that's very fair. You kinda threw some shade at them and understandably so lol I love playing as Thrace ever since watching Spartacus

[@Widzelli]

Can’t fault you for that, Spartacus is pretty cool

[@TheSm1thers]

​​​​ Thrace > Greek Cities IMO cos Greece is spread out af and Thrace copes with Greece's gaping cav weakness by having fast moving shock infantry that aren't just phalanxes making their armies more mobile plus better at sieges on walled settlement. Also pike phalanx have longer reach which lends itself to a cheese you can do. Seleucids are the most goated Greek faction tho for their amazing roster closely followed by Macedon.

[@WrathOfTheShaft]

@@TheSm1thers the cavalry for Macedon is pretty good too. Those light lancers pack a huge punch for shock tactics. Gonna give them another playthrough thanks!
