I'd like to know - will you make a balanced factions? Or historical accurate? We know from history not every faction could stand against other. I am asking because I hate faction balance. It's not just killing historical accuracy but game as well. I love to play weaker countries. I remember playing in Europa Barbarorum for RTW as Baktria. It was great, I had to be a good diplomat, merchant etc - bigger countries could destroy me in no time. It was far more interesting than starting as a balanced faction and become powerful destroying other AI countries and finally become best country that it's just a matter of time when I'll counquer whole world.
