    Also, ETW will only include Europe, North and Central America, North Africa, Middle-East, and India. Let's hope for a mod to put in the rest of the world.
    Wait a second, they can? Can you verify? It's too good to be true!

    It wouldn't be too hard either - that's the northern hemisphere basically, and if you look at the southern hemisphere, that's mostly water. -M

    My concern with the Syrakousai is not letting them get too powerful. I mean, they should be there, but they really shouldn't control anything except maybe a couple islands on sicily and maybe in the mediterranean. they really shouldn't be moving up the italian peninsula, which something tells me the TW AI would do. Also, I'm not very well versed in this, but how accurate is the Koinon Hellenon? I mean, I know it's units and buildings are accurate to Greece, but was there really such a coalition of Sparta Athens and Rhodes? Wouldn't it be far more accurate in EBIII to replace Koinon Hellenon with the Achaean and Aetolian leagues that Polybius mentions? -M

    The Chremonidean League/Koinon hellenon was indeed real, albeit extremely short-lived.

    hmm...shame. Oh well, I guess history has to take precedence. It's too bad we can't make the Greek city states a cluster of independent states and then just make it easy for them to become protectorates/client kingdoms of each other. -M
