Their units were very diverse, and I never felt there was any lack of unit types before. Diplomacy was really important throughout the whole campaign, which was crucial to defeating the Sassanids and their puppets. GC: Aksum-Aksum is probably one of the few campaigns that actually felt fun the whole time. I also really enjoy fighting battles on the Rome battle map. Excellent starting position, cool faction symbol, interesting variety of enemies (Franks, Romans, Pope, and Avari) to fight. Starting my first Roman Expedition campaign and fighting the Vandals is arguably the moment that I have enjoyed the most in Attila.ДЄoC - The Lombards. I like the simplified unit roster, and I see it as a welcome change over the monstrosity that is the ERE roster in the GC. I love the storyline, the proverbial bickering between Justinian, Theodora, and Antonina, as well getting to play as a Roman faction where the general is ALWAYS riding a horse. I like that the campaign mini-quest leads to an Antean-Roman alliance in a game that is for the most part about dismantling the Romans. I really enjoy the Antean campaign, hiding out on the forest steppe and trying to survive the Hunnic onslaught. I would have said the Eastern Roman Empire, but Attila is a game that is meant to be played with barbarian factions.

Even if CA is putting all of its time and energy into Warhammer now, I still feel it prudent to celebrate what has turned out to being a pretty good game.

Hell, we already have a 'What is your favorite unit?' thread going, so let's get a favorite faction thread going.
