Traits and Retinues in Greece
I don't know if they re alreay finished. I'd like to see a "Hubris" trait, that would looks like the "overconfidence" trait created by Byg in his SS submod.
Also, will the retinues that concerns titles will be transferable ?
Some like philosophers should be too, so, as a king of Macedonia, if have a greek philosopher in my retinue, I can give it to my heir for educational purpose.
An other thing, whch might not be doable, that I always wanted to see in a TW game is the ability to act as a mediator in Diplomacy. For example, if two neighbours are making war and you're neutral, the possibility to influence them so they make peace...
As for the traits, one I liked in EB, is after a victorious siege, if you had a massacre of its inhabitants, you would get an even more negative trait concerning your popularity with the attacked city's faction.
Well, those are just some small examples, if anyone have similar ideas, AND if this part of EB2 is still in process, it might give the dvs some new ideas (humble suggestion).
Anyway, I really think that M2TW has a huge roleplay potential with its traits and retinue system that can help to personalise every general & character. In that way, some of the BYG's submod for SS innovations are really helping the player's imagination in creating an original history.
I know all those roleplay things might not be popular in a TW game, and many people will find it useless, but to me, they are what make the superiority of the oldest TW games. They may not have Rome2 's eyecandy, but they are leaving huge areas for the imagination to fill, just as a good movie/book.
