Your Favourite Faction?

[Worbah]

I've yet to play the game, but how do the factions differ from each other?

 

[Tuckles]

Sweden's heavily armoured.

Crimean Khanate's full o' horse archers.

Can't tell the difference between the other three factions though.

Shame Sweden doesn't have an ending, I'd like to start a musketeer type character with rapier, pistol and musket.

Oh and a fancy hat.

[TuranianGhazi]

Khanate aren't too bad. Cavalry all the way, show the musketmen who's boss by headshotting them with a bow while riding at full tilt ...

YAR!!! For the Khan! lol that's how we be rollin'

Are you for real?

Being scandinavian I can't help but feel a connection with the swedish faction. Sadly the lack of a swedish story pretty much means I won't be playing them. (will just abuse theyr mercs to the fullest)

My favorite country not are present.
who knows when to launch the module does not add to scotland ....

i like scotland but the sweeds have scottish... nearly everything so it makes no sense to create a scottish faction. just get scottish guys

 

[Schmon]

I have a weakness for Sweden as well.  It just so happens it is the owner of Estonia, Finland, Latvia and Prussia - all very cool places.

I'm torn apart between Russia and Sweden.  So hard to choose when you are part Swedish and part Russian

Well in Europa Universalis, it's not uncommon for Russia to enter a personal union with Sweden. 

 

[MysticGamer]

Nice, mine too (BTW I live in Estonia in Dorpat Fortress - Nowadays called Tartu). Too bad that swedes doesn't have story. Carl Gustav is quite famous in Estonia.

 

[Votadini]

I always played the Nords in the last two games and the Kingdom of Sweden is the closest thing to it ^^

 

[TuranianGhazi]

Ya guys, if you want the old Swadians with just a melee knight cav rush, play as Swedes lol

Strategy
1. Hire Swedish Merc Cav or Faction Cav
2. Equip with shields, one-hand weapons (swords) and lances only
3. Charge
4 ......
5. Profit

Whoever said cav is dead in this game hasn't tried the above. I'll definitely play as Swedes for another playthough, they're competing with the Winged Hussars of Poland however.

I'm loving Muscovites.

Mostly since i'm the Tsar
,
Plus I like how they seem to look like an army rather than a bunch of men with no hair wearing stupid hats as their high tier troops

 

[muzzle]

i vote the swedes because i love heavy infantry and good marksmanship, SCREW ZE CAVALRY!!!

Wait, how did you become Tsar? Created own custom player kingdom from the old one? Were you able to recruit from Muscovite culture troop types for your troops or not? Please tell me ... I've been waiting for more such options for a player custom kingdom!

 

[voulge]

Sweden because they remind me of swadians

so u become the king of Russia in the end?

i am quite fed up with the polish king right now, order me to do ****ty jobs mess up my diplomatic relation and dont keep his promise, they better make me king of the commonwealth in the end or i am gonna turn to the Russia

 

[TuranianGhazi]

Oh dang, so the only way to become king of a faction is to do the storyline quest? Not through revolution, or (possible usurpation?) by creating custom player faction?

Drats!

PS: Please tell us how you become Tsar, man!

 

[Drimage]

I like Sweden, as they have the best outfits.  Seriously though, they look the least stupid to me.  I also like rapiers, though they're useless in this game.
