    Probably America, if they are playable. I have a strange feeling they aren't.

    No, America is a playable faction

    Over fifty factions will be featured in the game, ten of which will be playable. These fifty factions include[2]:

    I'm hoping that Austria-Hungary is a playable faction because I would truly love to play as the Habsburgs.

    My concern is that they may not be playable because, being largely landlocked, they didn't really have that much impact on overseas colonisation during the period.

    I think the first faction I'll play will be Britain - England was the first I played in MTW I and II. It's mainly because they're usually fleshed out quite well and quite easy to play - just what's ideal to become familiar with changes in the franchise.

    I'd love to see Austria-Hungary being playable as well - could be one of the more interesting unit-rosters, given it's multinationality...

    The ottoman empire is something im really looking forward to playing.

    Britain would be another fav, then maybe the american colonies.

    Then pretty much everyone else.

    Can't wait

    If I can unlock the factions through the descr_strat like in RTW, so Piedmont, conquer Genoa and Corsica, a few Islands in the new world, some land in Africa and a world trade empire is in front of you!
    or I will choose Hanover and have nice few lands in north America, in Africa and in India.

    Prussia seems like a challenge, esspecially if one wants to better history and challenge the colonial power early on.
    "Sebaceans once had a god called Djancaz-Bru. Six worlds prayed to her. They built her temples, conquered planets. And yet one day she rose up and destroyed all six worlds. And when the last warrior was dying, he said, 'We gave you everything, why did you destroy us?' And she looked down upon him and she whispered, 'Because I can.' "

    If the mughals are indeed playable i will start off as them and take central asia and teh west indies whilst holding off the europeans. If not ill be the ottomans, occupy the whole of africa, take out the safavids, invade India, then once i've generated enough revenue ill build a massive army and take europe all the way to france. Then if there is enough turns left, i might consider teh new world.

    Bad taste that they left Denmark out.. I mean I looked so much forward to a Great Nordic War scenario with Danes kicking Swedes on the high seas and getting kicked on land.. Game might be good, but i'll put my money on the modders, yet again.

    First of all, Portugal, if they make it in to the playable factions. Sweden, Prussia will also make me happy.

    There was no such thing as the Austro-Hungarian Empire in this time period.
