POLL: Most Players for a Mighty Empires Campaign?

We ran an 8+ (dont remember exactly, it was a looooong time ago)player 1st edition one in the Southampton GW store, it went well to start with but pretty quickly the undead player, through good political work and the racial trait causing the growth of his forces at some rediculious rate (cant remember if this was in game or made up rules), nobbled everyone.
We were supposed to be playing the battles in WFB but as i recall only a couple happened cos the armies got too big too quickly and we resorted to the mighty empires battle rules. This was a shame cos on the field of battle my wood elves were awesome, even when heavily outnumbered.
I loved it as a campaign system, it was great fun and pretty simple. It suffered the usual campaign problem of people who are doing badly quickly loosing interest though, but that is not particular to it, rather it is a general problem for campaigns.
