I guess we have to take our source of entertainment from somewhere. So how's the preview on Judea coming along?

Wait, so you did ditch the zealot fanatics? Agh, that's a shame, with their AP Candelabrum.

I see that the nabataean faction gets very little in the way of votes.
I also find it absurd how many people vote on factions that almost certainly won't be in EB2. I wonder how many actually read the FAQ's or faction manuals (the EB position towards factions). most mind bottling.
the fact that a staggering amount of people voted for the mauryan satrapy speaks volumes about popular demand, and its conflict with what EB most likely intends. this is not to say that I'm certain the maurya won't be in in any form, but unlikely.

Its hopeless to suggest the right factions when there were so many states and tribes around at that period.
I really hope for an Illyrian faction, as it is located between West and East Europe, so with such a location it would be fun a faction to play, because you could choose where to expand to. Also I believe one of the most largest Illyrian tribes were the Panonnians (who themselves were split in several tribes) and perhaps the most significant Panonnian tribe was the Segestani (A sort of Celto-Illyrian tribe) who built the city of Segestica (an important Illyrian Pre-Roman city) and fought back the Romans numerous of times.
Though there is a problem with an Illyrian faction and that is there that there is a lack with information about that region and at this period... but I still hope.
Welcome to the .Org, Hekk
An Illyrian faction would be nice indeed, but then again, there is a little less known about them at that era. But if there would be info, there would still be 2 provinces in Illyria, which is a bit less, don't you think. And even if they would be in, they would be steamrolled by the Epirotai in 270 BC.
So I don't think it's that a good idea, but if they take one province from Ireland (or ditch the whole British Isles) the Illyrians could be in.

Pergamon only has one province, so I don't think that is a reason not to include them. Not much is known about them? Well same goes for the Saba or Casse, both are still included.
And Epeiros already has the Romans, Macedon and The Koinon Hellenon to worry about. Illyria could be a good faction if they find a way to include their (profitable) piracy.

But, as said numerous times, it can't be done due to the hardcoded cultures limit.

= Baktria, well except for the satrapy thing. And an Indian faction would add alot indeed! Yet many members have spoken against such an idea so I doubt whether it will be in.
Then again you make history after the start date so the future of such a satrapy could never be known gamewise.

maybe, but culture limits are a problem, and the EB policy that, where possible, have all the borders of an empire (steppe faction Saka are an exception). that and the fact that you need to make room in the EDU and DMB for the guard units, specialized elephant units, and later era units.

If no one would dare, I will mod Colchis but I am very poor on modeling.
I hope team will leave a space for a faction that moders may add later.
