Fair enough. I can see that rebels still have horse archers.
Yes. Mercenaries look better now. But what really I wanted to say is just one-colour-armies (yellow Egipt, red Romans etc) it's not what pleases my eyes.
Anyway, I've run Egipt for a while. In city of Sidon I have second "founding building". Good thing, but was it intended?
Additional issues:
1. Movement allowance is far too small. I would like to be able to move spy/diplomat/army through whole province in on turn
2. Chariots in Egipt in 270 BC is anachronism. Shouldn't they have Hetairoi instead?
3. Script error in EDB.txt at line 3526 column 3 (about julii settlements).
Background
If Egyptian capital is Alexandria, then Ptolemaic Egypt, along with the other Hellenistic states outside of the Greek mainland after Alexander the Great, had its armies based on the Macedonian phalanx and featured Macedonian and native troops fighting in Hellenistic style.
Remember that in 332 BC, Alexander the Great, King of Macedon invaded Egypt. He visited Memphis, and oracle of Amun at the Oasis of Siwa. He conciliated the Egyptians by the respect which he showed for their religion, but he appointed Greeks to virtually all the senior posts in the country, and founded a
new Greek city, Alexandria, to be the new capital.
