I'm starting to work on a full AOR system for BI-XGM (MM-XGM requires a lot more work and will be implemented later) so that more customization avenues and working rebels will be a possibility...
Actually we have hellenic (all historical greek colonies), iberia (spain), italy, africa and lately eastern plus a few other single city zones.
Easy add-ons could be celtic (gaul and england), german, tracodacia, maybe persia (for a few eastern possible AOR units like companions and median cavalry) and sarmatia (if we want recruitable sarmatian mercs).
Now, what are your ideas? Do you think more zones are needed? What provinces should be in each zone?
The scope of this thread is to make a detailed list of what zones every province should belong, so that the final result will be the game province list with the zones for every one of them.
The List
Stuff in bold has already been implemented. The unit lists are tentative. I think we should aim for maybe one or two units in each area.
africa: Desert Infantry, Numidian Cavalry.
italy: Early Italian Infantry (Hastati), Late Italian Infantry (Legionaries)
hellenic: Greek Mercenaries
crete: Cretan Archers.
rhodes: Rhodian Slingers
palma: Balearic Slingers
illyria: Illyrians
cilicia Cilician Pirates
galatia Galatian Swordsmen
iberia: Scutarii, Celtiberian Cavalry (probably longshield)
eastern: Eastern Infantry
barbarian: Barbarian Infantry, Barbarian Cavalry, Barbarian Swordsmen (?)
steppes: Horse Archers, Scythian Axemen (?), Scythian Lancers (?)
thrace: Thracian Peltasts
media: Median Cavalry
