No Sparta in this HS.

i selected Atina because this mod doesntt have Sparta. And AC 1 hasnt Atina but Sparta is there . -,-

Well Sparta is all yours if you want

then Kolu will either go Illyria or Athens in which I assume Athens

Thrace and Lydia are also playable here tho

I would prefer Carthage if possible. Especially with the disband...that Athens navy scares the crap outta me

Carthage is straight up unplayable, Berber just steamrolls em if Syracuse doesnt, they arent even remotely balanced for this HS.

I dont think ill make carthage playable, there are already enough factions on that side of the map.

When I loaded it they looked just fine unless their units are weak and I missed that. I honestly do not see how berber could steamrol them

**saleska2** · May 12, 2016, 03:10 PM

Mostly units yes.

In this mod Greek units are superior above most other units. For that reason non-greek factions that start near a Greek faction start with better barracks and better units.

Carthage starts with a few medium infantry that are 8/8 power/def. Meanwhile syracuse next to you can make his light hoplites which are all 8/15 that is far superior to your medium units.
Berber also starts with better barrack and starts with Berber infantry which are all far superior that any you can make.

Also Carthage just starts of relatively weak here, forced to face players immediatly while everyone is supposed to be able to defeat some AI first.

Does Athens still start with that huge navy? I was confused as Sparta has no ports except Africa their navy is defencless

Did you download from OP? You will need that link as I changed some things that will require you to have my version.

didnt think about Sparta and Athens in 1 game. Athens does not start with the same huge navy but Sparta doesnt start with a port either

**kolu2210** · May 12, 2016, 03:20 PM

I downloaded the one here no ports bUT Athens has ships that no one can make and a 16 strong navy and another 6 ship navy

**saleska2** · May 12, 2016, 03:24 PM

Wait a second, I may have possibly uploaded the wrong version...

Athens should start with way less than that, lemme check. How big is Carthage navy for you at turn 1?
