Greetings.
Rome: Total War Fans. We bring you our second preview in two months. We have been working hard in order to keep you interested and of course, to keep ourselves from slacking and leaving work undone.
We hope you enjoy it and you keep supporting our work alongside us.
Also, since the preview is here, demagogos nicator won't have access to the development section anymore until we finish the units. We don't want him revealing the details for our next previews. :wink:
Also, since this is monday, obviously the newsletter will be delayed until the next scheduled day.
Also again; to our fans in Fiji; this has come very early. For our hawaiian fans. Well, sorry. :laugh4:

Arche Seleukeia
Seleucid Empire
Hail basileu ton basileon!
I am afraid news are not so good for your reign; I bring forth grave matters to you. It seems your armies cannot keep fear in your satraps and allies, they have become fearless to our mighty armies.
Your friendship and acceptance of those eastern barbaroi's customs may have saved the lives of thousands, fighting in wars on the opposite sides of your lands. Yet it has not stopped the Baktrian satrap Diodotos from rebelling, without any shame or fear. He is actively plotting against you and he must be crushed inmediately.
His schemes have; sadly, not failed as Andragoras; satrap of Parthia, has followed in the path and advice of Diodotos, and has rebelled and proclaimed your lands, as his. Yet he alone will not be able to hold off the Skythioi and Parthoi hordes, he will surely die and his lands will claim your name and ask your rule.
But yet, the wars with the laguids have ceased, they have imposed their might because of our many envious enemies. Too many fronts we have; it was needed for you to stop this war with Ptolemaios. Now he is old, and weak; and his daughter your wife.
Yet, my king, it would anger much her brother, that you go to Laodice, a women who it is said you repudiate; and leave your other wife Berenice. I do not want a laguid as a king either. But I am afraid many lives would have to be sacrificed because of wars with those usurpers, those thiefs.
And on your west, the ruler of Pergamon; Eumenes, has expanded much more, claiming you as your enemy. Trying to usurp your lands and renounceto your rule and help. While the laguids aided and supported that revolt.
The kingdom of Pontos and Hayastan are still your allies, and I think you should hope to mantain it that way. We do not need any more enemies.
Our armies are not as large as they were under Seleukos, yet our soldiers are more and more powerful and mighty than those of Alexandros.
Only he can rule over such vast lands as was his empire, he united all men from the vast reaches of the world. It is your turn, to equal his empire, and unite all those who oppose you, under the same banner.
For you are the basileos of the Arche Seleukeia; the largest empire of the world today. For you are the basileu ton basileon!
