Do you like more Greek states in Rome I or Epirus, Athens and Sparta in Rome II?

[Sir Nicholas Altman]

I am wondering will 3 separate Greek states be to weak in Rome 2 and kinda think that the Greek City States was a better faction as united in Rome 1 for better game balance. Also it seems there is no Rhodos as a faction in Rome 2.

[HusKatten]

No more factions on the greek peninsula. But Bosporan Kingdom, Rhodes, Cyrenaica, Syracusa and Marseille would take the greek cultre and bring it to the test in other political and geographical positions.

EDIT: My bad, seems i didn't understand the topic.

[Greve Af Göteborg]

I like the separate greek states more than the greek faction in rome 1.

Μe too.

Anything more would be great too, be it Greeks, barbarians, easterners, anything.

[Strattios]

I prefer the variety of faction however, I would love to see AOR (area of recruitment) for faction specific hoplites in their home region if you take over. Such as Spartan hoplites if you control Sparta.

[Serkelet]

Are you for real? Separated Greek cities is always better... Didn't imagine there could be debate about it.

[simonsimons]

Definitely separate factions. No debate needed here. People complain about a lack of variety and having separate ones will make it more detailed.

[RagingCroppy]

Epirus and Athens were both rebel states in Rome 1. So it wasn't all of them combined, it was just an overly powerful Sparta.

Also being able to play as Athens, Sparta, and Epirus individually is much more satisfying than playing a generic "Greece" and pretending to play them.

[Meerv]

One greek cities faction?

[Karnil Vark Khaitan]

they are suppose to be weak and divide.

[Aymer de Valence]

Well, the Greek City States faction in Rome 1 had the potential to be a VERY powerful faction, if the games back then were as dynamic as they are now with faction bonuses etc. They could have had the land strength of the Spartans and some kind of naval bonuses for the Athenians, as they were both under the same banner in Rome 1. Being able to recruit Cretan archers basically from the very outset of the campaign made them strong indeed.


I prefer how things are in Rome 2, as there's more variety. In fact, it will allow the developers to really home in on each factions and make them unique.

I like the seperate factions but I believe if you play as a Greek faction you can have a side mission to unite the factions into one.

Similar to some missions in Victoria 2, like the unification of Germany. Just another reason why Paradox and CA should temporarily join forces, with Paradox developing the campaign structure and CA working on battles. I would WORSHIP a game like that!

I have tried paradox games and I really hate them so I hope CA dont go down that route.

[oOIYvYIOo]

Logically the 3 factions that Rome 2 is offering us.

[Arcani 4 Ever]

Well if the campaign map was as "Colossal" as CA says it will be, then at least Corinth could have made it into the map. The disappearance of Rhodes, just goes and makes everything more complicated.

I do enjoy and like the fact they divided the Greek City States. Now hopefully in the future we will get Pergamon, Rhodes, Syracuse, Massilia, Cyrene and maybe Crete to have more City States.

[Mary The Quene]

is this even a question?

[LaLaLand]

I like the solution they have going. 4 factions in the Greek peninsula is a lot already.

[Lord Tomyris]

51 votes to 1...seems that this is a no-brainer, really.

[Tim_Ward]

The poll results make me laugh.
