EDIT: I will have to disagree with you on the Chalkis-issue, Dumbass. Sure, Greece is cramped, but Chalkis was a rather important Macedonian base, if I'm not mistaken. Also, I don't think it detracts from gameplay at all, rather ads to it... Greece should be a quite complicated place to hold, given that there waere quite a lot of independent leauges and city-states there, and having to controll many cities is a good way of representing this.
(And I still think that the Aetolian leauge would be a great addition to EBII, despite not being super-important. I want City-state squabbles galore!!!)
Sorry, completely off topic...
It was an important Macedonian base, but then there are lots of other important cities that are not represented on the EB map. And I don't think having lots of cities in greece makes it complicated to hold, if anything it just makes it too easy with the huge amount of trade income you rake in.
If you want city state squabbles, then couldn't the inclusion of a settlement for the achean league fill that criteria? I think that would make a good replacement for Chalkis. But there will no doubt be a need for more settlements where the new factions are going to be implemented.

And Ludens like you said, maybe a PSF would better represent Chalkis; as a strategic base, rather than a population centre. Giving control of Eubioa to thessaly would hardly raise problems and difficulties, seeing as it's really the settlements that matter in RTW, not the empty area around it.
