I wanted a challenge and modded descr_strat to play as the barbarians, namely Dahae, to see what I could conquer before Alexander did. It was an enjoyable campaign, and since me and the Persians were, army-wise, more or less evenly matched, it was something of an adrenaline rush.
I ended up conquering the entire eastern half of the map besides India, and facing off against a handful of Macedonian armies.
The bridge battles and plains battles, as well as trying to outsmart your enemy in the mountains and passes of the east, was fun and challenging. Same as the whole game.
But I only replayed it to play as the other barbarians in different parts of the world for a different campaign game.
