That depends, if you can play AS egyptians or any of the other teams non civilized, civilized means greeks and romans and Thracians, Macedonians and i put germans in here too since they got the phalanx along with their terrible infantry. If you can play with any other race then i bet you are quite good:) I am incredible poor at playing other factions, can't use gauls, can't play selucids and the brittain barbarian people they suck beyond imagination. However i somehow hold on since they start on an island but i can never seem to invade the mainland. However every race that got the phalanx, i have never lost a siege battle defending with two platoons of those. So with germans its incredibly easy just to defend. Even more so for the greeks, and the thracians are incredible at both attacking and defending. I just got a little problem that everyone starts by declaring war at me there, however i manage to build myself up at some point when the romans have taken the south. Then my expansion is incredible, and i take over half the earth. Heh it was a beautiful sight as scipii when i took the whole world, thats the only time i put in enough time to take the whole world. btw i suck at playing online since then i cannot rush with superior numbers and one more thing, the only thing i really excel at is managing my towns so i can build a lot of troops. I don't care for siege weapons and 2 turn soldiers, gotta build them fast and cheep. With this i got an incredible advantage in numbers whenever i fight someone, however on the other hand i always stay close to 0 denarii.
