After making thousands of changes to all these files, and not being able to test them until all the changes were made, I have to say I'm quite happy that when I put them all in the game and tried to load it, only a couple minor typos prevented it from loading nicely.

What that means is that all the new factions are in, cloned, or whatever, in their proper locations, the right cultures, etc. I definitely breathed a sigh of relief!! I still need to fix some AOR stuff, change the character names for a couple factions, and do some work on the new 'Independent Cities' faction, but the really tough part is past. Then I can start adding the new Scythian units.

Independent Cities ... is that another name for the free people or another free faction?

[dvk901]

Yes, no.

Ahh, that solves that!!

along that same line then, currently we have the free people (ex britians) and the free people (ex rebels). Which one of those will it be replacing?

The ex-britons will be the 'Independent Cities & States'. They have been moved out of Barbarian areas, except for one region (Noricum, which was a 'Romanized' ally), and will now have regions only in more 'civilized' areas. This was to remove the Greek cities look from Barbarian areas. Besides, the Boii, Belgae, and Scythians will aptly fill in the areas they used to hold, so they aren't really necessary up there. They will have regions like Athens, Rhodes, Bithynia, etc when they are not 'factions', and Sparta when they have been swapped out as a faction. So essentially, they will be a more true 'Greek' faction in mostly historically Greek areas, with a few eastern ones.

Excellent work, dvk.
