    Note: Palmyra is always taken by the Seleucid Empire, but because it has a huge cultural penalty with them, it rebels over to Parthia.

    62. The Romans of all people can't seem to realize that it's generally not a good idea to send 80-90% of their troops charging into a phalanx HEAD-ON! The "barbarian" factions at least try to flank.

    63. Aside from Romanization, the Seleucid also have the capability to Parthianize their army.

    ^ True, true
    65. The Belgae seem to hate REALLY hate the Romans as well, going past the territories and several nations just to siege the closest Roman settlement. And I'm not talking about small 5 unit stacks, I'm talking 4 to 7 full stacks complete with the chariots with the guys with weird but cool fur(?) helmets.

    That your faction leader can be hated by the senate, the people and the army but that they all start to love him if he eliminates a high enough number of people after having conquered enemy cities.

    72. Achaeans had ugly-looking phalangites (well, not wanting to insult anyone, but they are not as nice as some of the "main" units).
