With a million horsemen at his back, the ultimate warrior king approaches, and his sights are set on Rome…
Their edicts are very good too.Against a darkening background of famine, disease and war, a new power is rising in the great steppes of the East.
If you can switch to Christianity, you should do so, as Christianity is the best religion in the game as it goes further (since churches only cost money, which you'll have plenty of). Later in the game, the food costs will be very taxing and limit your ability to upgrade your towns and cities. It only provides a recruitment bonus (+1 capacity) and their buildings give nothing special (the minor ones give sanitation). Germanic paganism is the worst religion in the game, so you're better off changing. The Slavs get some new features (+fertility, special unit abilities like Last Stand), the Desert kingdoms get different units from their top tier barracks based on religion (Himyar gets heavy infantry from Judaism + Sicarii, gets a shock cav unit, a mounted archer unit and Chosen from Semitic paganism). If you intend to convert, do it asap so you can start converting that province quicker. Your units will start talking about God, too. You get some new edicts (you should have a +public order edict and a +rel influence edict as a pagan, both of those will change). Every religion also has a small bonus (Latin Christianity, for example, is +1 religious osmosis iirc). Each church/temple has different bonuses beyond religious influence and public order. Going Christian means you get churches which don't cost food but money instead. Religion mostly affects the religious buildings.
