dsongop , Its because You lost You homeland I never give it up. So basically yes, the idea is Ceaser and Crassus can handle the East on his own, while You have to tie western enemies so Pompei won't die and conquer Iberia.
8 cities only. All You need in this conquest is just occupy Helvetii faster than Ceaser and after that fight against Arverni. Ceaser without having Helvetii territory will focus on eastern front only.

dsongop,Treveri and Sugambri are better for speedruns. They're pretty useless since they enter the war a bit too late, so by using them early on, it gives your allies a big advantage. Also, Donating to the Bithynia kingdom a lot earlier will help them survive and steam roll the east a lot quicker.

I like Eastern strapies instead, and Roman factions, of course

I did this conquest right before I accidentally loaded my earlier cloud save, and I still haven't revisited it. Glad that you all are coming back to this thread though. Treveri and Sugambri definitely are good for speedruns; I got 34 with Sugambri and 31 with Treveri 1st try, but I think all 1-stars except for Bithnyia and Pontus are good for speedruns since playing as them can easily tilt the conquest to your allies' side if many opposing nations are conquered fast.

Pontus is fine, not consistent, although it's consistent for high scores. Bithynia is ok, but i haven't had much practice on it. 1 star nations are more fun to play than 2 star(except Egypt) and 3 star nations.

Yup, and it took me some tries to play it efficiently. Would be simple to complete, just beat Aedui and you'll be fine, but to complete it quickly is a different thing. It's fun, but not fun if the East falls
