Armenia

- Why Armenia control the steppes and Mesopotamia ? It is unhistorical . They were expanded into Syria , not in these places .
It is however one of the best mods for RTW i have play , i hope i will find the Gold Edition cd from somewhere , becouse now i play SPQR from internet cafe .

You can buy the gold edition in every game store so that won' t be that difficult.

Armenia has those territories to stop another faction from expanding and becoming a super faction (parthia I think?)
Just as with Makedonia having regions in Asia Minor to stop the Greeks

I know it's not historical, but it adds to the game play

And the gold edition is cheap, hell, I saw eras in a shop the other day (= shogun, medieval 1 and rtw with expansions) for 5-10 euros :O

I almost crappped myself

Anyhow

buy it

yes there is a gameplay reasons, sometimes you cant have complete historical locations, example is macedon in asia minor, but then since the whole region was greek whats the difference on the color of their tunic. lol As for the east it was necessary to do so for parthia to stay in place.
