    Icon3 Custom Faction

    I think in this game there should be a custom faction option, where you pick the color scheme, make the flag, have choice in uniforms, even be able to make laws.... This is just an idea so please don't flame me for it.

    i actually like the idea of creating your own faction with you as the leader and you get to pick/create your own units,flags,buildings all that stuff kinda like shogun multiplayer but this time in game as an actual faction to play a campaign as but i dont see it happen since some history buffs would complain about it but would bring a nice rpg feel to it andi think it should be an option for later releases as well....

    It sounds good, but it would be extremely hard to implement in the campaign map (where would you place your capital? Is it a good spot, can it support a "new" nation?) There's a whole campaign balance thing behind, such as adjusting the local economy of the custom faction. In the other hand, one could simply replace the spot of another faction, but then it would be like playing the same faction, just that with other colours, among other minor customizations.

    It's a good idea, but I don't think it's the best game to apply it to.

    Or, on the other hand, you can always mod the game to your liking, making a whole new fantasy world with your factions, your starting positions, and your units.

    While it would be hard to implement it would be a feature I use the hell out of. I love the sandbox features of TW and being able to create one's own faction to make one's own place in history is very appealing.

    In a faction creator I would like to see:

    Choose Logo
    Choose Colors
    Choose the troops you get
    Choose the capital (Only start with 1 city)
    Choose the family name (ex. of Sparta, Julius, Brutus, ect)

    An easier feature to implement in feudal Japan, and one that I would have like to have seen there.

    I love the idea. Definitely make for better AAR's.

    I don't think it would be too hard to impleent if you have like a zoomed in version of the map on the campaign selection screen and just choose from a select few provinces.

    why not, by choosing custom faction, you would simpy take place instead of one you would be place on the map, example you would be instead of Gaul, Rome, Carthage, Pontus etc... also by choosing unit types....for sandbox mode, ideal
