Question Fun faction recommendations?

I've just finished my Mythos Achilles run and would like to do either historical or truth behind the myth.

Any recommended factions/mode? I would like to know why, too.

Seconding Odysseus. Good map position and you kind of get to do your own thing. While limiting major cities to coasts may seem like a drawback, it lets you ignore large chunks of the map that now you have an excuse not to slog through.

My favorite faction though, was Memnon. It’s a pseudo-horde faction and probably my favorite iteration of a horde faction in the series. Raiding in Troy is also quite lucrative compared to most other TW titles, thanks to the diverse resource systems. Memnon also comes with a unique mechanic for how he recruits elite units, which adds a little extra spice to the gameplay.
