No, not true, more like: ( haven't played all factions )
Orcish Factions ( Isengard included ): Holy Roman Empire
Good Men factions: England

he is talking about the labels the game uses for factions (ie ownership in edu, buildings in edb, descr_strat,....)

[Kiljaden]

Yeah, it's for modding reference. I just wanted to have it available on both my compies for my personal mod projects, and figured people would inevitably ask the question of what vanilla label = what TATW faction. So there ya go

Thanks for adding this. Its proven very useful. + rep.

[Kiljaden]

Wow, my first sticky! I'd better make it look nicer now

[axnsan]

but you'd better remove the capital letters from the labels themselves
i.e. mongols not Mongols, papal_states not Papal States, hre not HRE - the game is very sensitive to cases

Duly noted and changed. Thanks for the input!

[killerrabbit]

oh... damn.... I thought he meant the voices and stuff...

but why would you want to know that?

[axnsan]

modding purpose
unit ownership , building requirments, descr_strat, descr_win_conditions and many more

even WITH the voices and stuff it holds up. the goblins fighting the high elves will give a german speech about fighting the egyptians and not having to throw away too many german lives

that is the problem here.
