Ive heard word that CA has raised the faction limit to thirty factions. Can anyone prove or disprove this?

I wonder if this means Teutonic Knights...

They only put in 21. Until we have the game and try and add a 22nd we won't know.

Yes but something had to happen for this '30 faction limit' thing to just come up. Im wondering what spurred this if anything at all.

In one of the pre-release interview the devs said that they were thinking about adding more factions up to a total of 30. They never followed up on that and said if they actually did it, but judging from the fact they only announced 21 factions, they never added this. Maybe in a future expansion

Or possibly the core game will only feathure 21 factions while the hardcoded limited might feathure 30 factions for modders to use.

exactly the point, modders will love this news if its true.

Well right now, no word or evidence suggest that the faction limit has increased.
I think it will be safe to say that it will still be 21 factions.

Ok. My mistake then. I thought some new information came up that pointed to 30 factions. Thanks for clearing that up.

They made a change.You can modd the game easier.Just go in a file and change the 9 factions to yes there will be the irish and some others.So they made them but you need to go yourself and activate this option.

I was under the impression that CA did at one stage (quite a while back) mention that they might raise the faction limit to 30, but weren't promising anything. The original announcement is gone, but there was some discussion about it in this old thread

We'll see how things turn out.

I'd like to know as well. It would be, simply put, fantastic if it was the case, but asides the rumours a few months ago I've heard nothing of the sort...

He's lying, don't believe him.

I hate when people spread rumours.

I hope so, but I take it with a grain of salt. Personally I don't believe it, but I hope I'm wrong.

Why would CA make 9 other factions and than not include them for the casual gamer? I don't believe a word.

It could, however, be possible that there is room for 9 more factions just like in the original MTW

You asked and then answered...

I hope that will be over 21 faction slots.
