Bring back horsebreeders! (An Idea for EB2)

Ha, I´m the #1 supporter for 2 Numidian factions. Which I am quite confident there´ll be.

you are bold! still, 2 numidians as n history? I dunno if they will have that. 10 factions extra, 9 used, 1 known for sure (pergamon). chances are good, but I dunno. they may put 2 pr 3 new "barbarian" cultures, or maybe the Yuezhi may return (unlikely to me)

I know we're going way off topic now but still, as we're there anyway :)
Has anyone taken a look at this?

Obviously not cannon for definite EB2 factions (five new African factions? I think not...) but it makes an interesting read and perhaps helps us speculate a little easier :D

I doubt the confidence is linked to rationality, though. He's just saying things, and quite probably has spent too much time in these forums to remain sober...

that's a good idea overweightninja
thanks for pointing that out

No Syracusans

(I'm the #1 supporter for an EB2 Syracusan faction.... Come to think about it... I'm the 1# supporter for TWO eb2 Syracusan FactionS!!! - I know they'll be there, I know they'll be there, I know they'll be there).

EDIT: And if you're wondering HOW there could be two Syracusan factions with just one Syracuse? Well, they'll each have it every second turn, and it'll then shift to the other one on the next turn. And then they'll use their turn to conquer those areas just taken by the other faction in the last turn. And of course, the faction which is not in Syracuse, will spend its turn in Gotland... (you were all wondering why that province existed, weren't you? :P)

That's the best idea I have heard since a man in the 30s in Germany talked of building a super race.

That webpage isn't a very good guide to faction inclusion. It's dates back to the first open beta, when both the Saba and the Saka had not been included yet. You'll note neither appear on the list, nor do the factions that were considered as alternatives.
