First Release Playable Factions

[The Wandering Storyteller]

Most likely the Hellenistic factions offer a lot of combat. I played DEI with Nabetea, and it takes a very long time to get started before you can start your engine and shove your armies to the map. There's also other factions as well. So the Greek factions which can be done will offer a lot more variety.

I'd say save the Eastern factions for later, Parthia, Nabetea, Pontus.

I wouldn't mind one Barbarian faction being available for release.

Just my opinion!

[UMCenturion]

Tbh, Seleucids, Ptolemies and Achaean League share a lot of the same buildings, so I could try to get them all done in one go.

To add to what Petellius said, would be easy to get those done with other things as well - since they all share many of the same things db wise such as events, mission, etc, it is copy and paste.

Hopefully a barbarian faction will follow soon after release, super hyped to play whatever third faction is voted in though!

[GRANNYLOVER69]

cant vote but id vote for iceni/britons

[mw51630]

Man, I though I was submitting the tie-breaking vote but instead succeeded in creating a tie between Seleucids and Ptolemies...

Ah well I like them both so I suppose I win! Also congrats on the Let's Play sent to JackieFish, I'd love to get my hands on that release today if it was possible.

Seleucids, Seleucids, still and forever Seleucids!

[Petellius]

Seleucids, Seleucids, still and forever Seleucids!

Ptolemies are better.

+1 For Pergamum since I cant vote.

Go the underdog!

[Hoplite of Ilis]

+1 for Ptolemies. It was expected to see that Greek factions get all the attention.

Ptolemies have by far the best unit roster, and a pretty interesting campaign. Ptolemies FTW!

[Berselli]

+ 1 for Macedon.

[Ambiorix84]

Well, seeing is (more or less) believing

I guess you guys cannot do anything about the buildings look in battle, right? You know, some will look like early christian or so.

[Petellius]

We changed all the cities in the game to Hellenic, Roman or barbarian like in Rome 2.

7 votes with yours, if the change counts

@Petellius or UMCenturion;
One Question to you guys. Why is there no faction representing the british isles like for example the Iceni?

[_Tyr_]

Yet another one, great.
Yes, I hope my change still counts.

[Nikron]

No Balkan faction in your plans?
