Man nothing against the US but this time period would be horrible to play as them. They weren't a super power and could have easily have been destroyed if anyone wanted to destroy them. England have many times more soldiers then the US had people so if they wanted to(propably wasn't enough money making in it for England) they could have anahaleted them. They weren't always a super power. Also they would start half way through the game. IMO an indian or denmark or portugal would be much more interesting and more realistic.

My admiration for the most creative spelling I've come across in a good while!

I'm glad to see it's not only European factions that are playable. Marathas would be Hindu in Empire's timeframe I suppose, or would the rulers be Muslim like the Mughals?

Anyway, I doubt the US will be the twelfth faction, since they won't be there at the start. Either CA counted them as the 12th faction because you can play them in RTI, or it will be another faction you can play as (hopefully native American).

Hindu, which is prob why they are chosen over the mughals, other than mughal decline.

I don't think there are anymore factions that will bring anything new into it now. The 12th will be US or it will be something surprising...like Safavids or Indians!!!! or maybe a German state.
