So I saw a post by i think Greek strategos saying playing by 'house rules' is a good way to make the campaign harder. Im just wondering what are those rules exactly? I've pretty much perfected the first 40 turns in my Rome campaign, having control of all of Cisalpina, Illyricum annd Makedonia and with 2 armies ready to invade Massalia all usually done by turn 40. This does feel way to quick and i usually get bored by turn 50 and start another campaign with someone else. I don't like giving the AI bonuses in terms of battle difficulty but I'm open to putting campaign difficulty up to VH but im not sure if that will make it painful or challenging. Anyway chuck us your favourite house rules that you play your campaigns with. Cheersy
