Baktria Faction DLC coming soon?

**kostas84** · September 12, 2013, 01:54 AM

Hello everyone, while i was skimming through the factions in the All Factions Mod i found something very interesting, Baktria has proper bonuses and a faction description:

While other random factions that were unlocked dont have them, instead they have this:

Does this mean that Baktria will come as a future DLC? I sure hope so

Interesting :E

Nah; sure we've already unlocked all the factions anyway.

God knows what their DLC ideas are gonna be. Hopefully a DLC lag remover for their campaign map

FreeLC that comes with Iberian Culture DLC pack just like Pontus for Greek Culture and Seleucid for Steppe Culture.

Even the faction symbol shows that this would be the coolest faction! Can someone share some info on their units? They have to have something like this http://www.europabarbarorum.com/i/un...ppotoxotai.gif or this http://www.europabarbarorum.com/i/un...eek_nobles.gif , not to mention this http://www.europabarbarorum.com/i/un...taphraktoi.gif !!

Download the mod and see for yourself, they have a very good roster.

Its good in multiplayer too, the Royal Guard need some tweaks though.

I would like an extended greek DLC, nations like Syracuse, Messalies (Really want to give this one a try) and Baktria (their faction symbol is cool, therefor I would totes play them

)

I'd pay for Roman Arcani DLC

Oh, and controller support.

So the Baktrian faction is already playable on our systems, we're just going to pay to unlock it.

Bactria is an interesting faction of course.
But without some Indian provinces it would feel lame. Starting in a corner of the map gives you not much directions to expand.

**Hrobatos** · September 12, 2013, 04:44 AM

You can play Baktria or an other faction with a mod that unlocks them. And Baktria and Seleucids I think get most of stuff done too, like description, objectives etc.

DLC factions will have to then offer some new stuff that isnt alredy in game. Why would anyone buy unlocking faction when he can download mod that does the same?

True that, CA will do something about it though.

Yes, first a no-unlock factions DLC, then Baktria XDD

Even if they make it free LC it does not completely make up their failing this turd.

**Zipzopdippidybopbop** · September 12, 2013, 09:07 AM

They'll release a Scythian DLC pack, which expands the map into the Russian steppes a bit.

Then probably an Indian DLC pack.

I'd probably buy both to be honest.

**StupidAlarmClockGuy** · September 12, 2013, 09:52 AM

I'd like if they released some factions that don't have the Greek culture.

There is a little more of India in the map than actually was finished...if you look at Gedrosia the fog of war continues to the east and THEN the map 'ends' a little past the Indus. I can see this being fixed for a Baktria/Indian DLC. At least, I hope so. Baktria was one of those faction I was surprised wasn't in the game from the start.
