I think it's a fake. CA never uses Greek/Latin names for factions.

No no. It's from an Italian site. It's Italian not latin.

A greek city pack looks excellent allthough this could be a mock-up. With some very nice unique tech trees, and government mechanics I'm absolutely down for it.

Not a big fan of the art style on the box by the way

O the link looks quit legit by the way.

Wel brace yourselfs for the ***storm of raging anti-DLC fanatics coming down on this thread

[weirdoascensor]

Its Italian.

Hmm....I Believe Jack Lusted lurking on this thread just a while ago...but now He disappeared...

Well, just wait for confirmation.

The Italian description of the pack

"Il Pack Cultura Stati Greci aggiunge una nuova Cultura giocabile che include 3 nuove fazioni giocabili in Total War: ROME II; si utilizzeranno in campagna Singolo e Multigiocatore e nelle battaglie Personalizzate e Multigiocatore.

Il Pack Cultura Stati Greci aggiunge la diplomatica Atene, la furba Epiro e la formidabile Sparta come fazioni giocabili. Ognuna offre una serie di speciali abilità tattiche per ottenere vittorie culturali e marziali, e unità speciali letali da schiacciare i nemici in battaglia. Gli stati Greci condividono una serie di obiettivi comuni, di filosofie e di aiuti diplomatici. Comunque, sono caratterizzati dalla loro fiera indipendenza e tra di loro dimostrano una enorme varietà di approcci alle sfide civili e militari il che li porta spesso ad essere in conflitto tra di loro e il resto del mondo."

Weren't they saying that all the work they were doing was going to be in the final game in day 1, when speaking about DLCs and about the fact that no content would be ripped off?
So it was not true...

[Rhaegar1]

And the google translate for those to lazy, it seems quit good:

"The Greek states Culture Pack adds a new playable Culture which includes 3 new playable factions in Total War: ROME II will be used in Single and Multiplayer campaign and in the battles and Custom Multiplayer.

The Culture Pack adds the diplomatic Athens Greek states, the smart Epirus and Sparta formidable as playable factions. Each offers a variety of special tactical skills to achieve victories cultural and arts, and special units lethal crush enemies in battle. The states Greeks share a number of common objectives, philosophies and diplomatic aid. However, they are characterized by their fierce independence and between them show a huge variety of approaches to the challenges of civilian and military which often leads them to be in conflict with each other and the rest of the world.

[PietroMicca]

I would love it to be true but I will wait for a word from staff guys.

so will I

but it's a commercial site that offers this pack now in a sort of pre-order bonus version

if it's not true is worse than a fake, it's a hoax

[SirFork]

Yeah the unit appearance seems legit and in totalwar-romeII-style the logo of the factions seems legit too. imo.

Waiting for confirmation.

[simonsimons]

I'm going to stick my neck on the line and say this is real. It just doesn't seem fake.
