I honestly always thought that Milan is the wildcard in the hotseats. It can pretty much choose who it murders. England is beating France? Just yoink the French settlements before the English. France is winning against England? Befriend HRE and attack France. Pope excommunicated you? Kill the Pope while they're fighting Venice or Sicily. HRE attacks you as their first target? Just negotiate with Denmark, Poland and Venice to destroy them early. Like idk. Milan can be a very diplomatically devious faction. It doesn't really have a clear enemy as all the other factions are too busy fighting someone else. If they want to kill Milan first when then they'll most likely have to fight a 1v2 war and others might just jump in the fray to get their own piece of the pie.

What a Byzantium player sees--marble statues adorning magnificent imperial palaces surrounded by the emperor's "legions" (really just a bunch of dismounted latinkon).

@@hannibalburgers477 Hi Hannibal. Thanks for your reply. I've never really been troubled by the Moors unless I'm Sicily, Portugal or Spain. I prefer to play as a faction on the periphery of the map for defensive reasons. (England, Denmark, Moors) and nothing to the right of the Italian Peninsula so that I can avoid having to deal with the Mongols and Timurids. It's a different game, but your experience with the Moors in Medieval 2 reminds me of how much I detest the Egyptians in Rome: Total War. My last game I was playing as Armenia, and Egypt kept attacking me. Even when I made peace or even agreed to become their vassal, they kept doing it. Sometimes on the very next turn. All my neighbours except one were at war with me, so I had money problems, and I had to spend my limited funds on replenishing my garrisons rather than on new buildings. That being said, it's a big ask to win a Rome Campaign as anyone other than the Scipii or Brutii. My only 2 complaints about Medieval 2 are 1) The AI is FAR too aggressive. And 2) I think the number of territories needed for victory is a little high too. I would rather have the aggression level set to a similar level as, say, Empire: Total War.

Milan's awesome for the sheer fact that pretty much ALL the units you're going to use for the duration of the campaign come from towns, and you can just convert all your castles. And your crossbowmen are on par or better than other nations' castle ranged units - all the while being flagged as militia for free upkeep. Also never been to Portugal, have no relations, but gonna defend them anyway as I think it's the best faction - for the following reasons: You get the best rounded armies overall. Every other nation ends up lacking something. England has good range but lacks spear walls and phalanxes. Scotland lacks ranged units. France lacks gunpowder infantry late game. Everyone else likewise misses something that you would want in your army composition. Portugal on the other hand gets Aventuros for their spear-wall frontline, who are second best only to Scotland's pike infantry. They get pavise crossbowmen that are max range x/bow infantry with solid defense and offense. In gunpowder age, they don't fall off like many other nations, and have access to longest range Basilisk cannons. They also get the best frontline gun infantry as Portugese Arquebuses have more armor than other nations' hand gunners - making them viable in melee, especially when supported by Aventuros - and they still have access to the long-range Musketeers for the backline. To top it all off, they get better cannon ships than other nations, and solid militia with swordsmen militia who are almost as good as dismounted knights, with pike militia support for phalanx spear-wall. Basically what you said about Sicily having any and all options available to them, whether you like to go infantry, cavalry, archers, gun units - Portugal does all that while giving you better options than Sicily does. Genuinely don't know why you WOULDN'T want to play Portugal - purely based on what they offer in their army roster selection. Would love to hear why you think otherwise though as I just don't see it. The starting position isn't as bad as any mid-European nation either - since you can conquer Spain and the Moorish cities pretty quickly, and then it's just a matter of holding that crossing down South towards Moors, while Zaragoza and Pamplona are easy to reinforce as defensive cities into Europe. My only criticism of Portugal would be reliance on Castles for Aventuros late game (if you are still using them to counter enemy cavalry) - but that's pretty much every faction with very few exceptions (refer back to Milan)

They have more attack and more morale so they do not inmidiately break.

Regarding Portugal, a lot of us pick them because we like Spain's roster, but prefer Portugal's colours! On a more serious note, Dismounted Portuguese Knights are great in PvP and the only real advantage Portugal has over Spain online.

I (an American) actually like playing Portugul, at least in Short Campaign. It's pretty easy to surround Spain so you can take them out and focus on the Moors without worrying about excommunication. As Spain Portugul can just retreat into France.

Trurly this was really fun video. But in Poland it's more you want to fight any imaginable front. In the west you have HRE, at the south Hungary in the east Russia (and Mongols sometimes) and sometimes Denmark will atack you. At least this is my opinion. Sorry for my english.

@rui carvalho And it makes sense considering the performance of Portuguese pikemen against Castilian and French heavy cavalry in the 14th century. What I don't like about them is the design. They were made to represent some sort of explorer/conquistador, which is silly for the Medieval period, and doesn't even make sense in the late game since they don't even have India/Indonesia in the game. Besides, pikemen didn't play a key role in the Portuguese conquests in the East, it was mainly their gunnery. The Portuguese elite pikemen unit should be based on those used in the 1383-85 interregnum war, and they should also have elite crossbowmen (since Portugal was one of the first European kingdoms establishing professional standing regiments of Crossbowmen). In all medieval games, Portugal suffers from a severe case of "the Discoveries" stereotypes. People realise Portugal has +600 years of Medieval warfare content before the discoveries were a thing right?

My first medieval 2 campaign, I played England and didn't get super far. My second Medieval 2 campaign was the HRE, and it was the first and only total war campaign I've ever completed. I expanded insanely fast, taking everything, and had finished the campaign before the plague broke out and before timurids appeared. I had one successful campaign in Cairo somehow, and I won as the mongols were currently shit kicking Egypt right next to me. I had so. Many. Wars. Going on
