Koinon = "League of"
Konion = "Poison"

I was just going to type this myself!

The scene of Theramenes (of the tyrranoi) sprang into mind for some reason too...

Ok the last two messages left me totally confused..

What does Koinon=poison mean ??????? Are you deriving a mathematical relation ?????

Konion is Greek for "poison"
Koinon is Greek for "League of"

Just be careful what you write, a small typo can change the meaning. Ceterum censeo Romam esse delendam.

Spelling nazis!

You may want to increase the Greek Hoplites Shield bonus a bit too, as it is they take way too many casualties from missile units that they would otherwise not take if they could actually still go into phalanx mode. Also maybe either give them Kydonia or just severely deplete the garrison to help them out there. As it is I have to agree that KH seems completely incapable of expansion thanks to having one of its major cities (Rhodos) on an island and therefore making it worthless army production wise since the AI armies think boats are the devil.

1.2 is the first version in which the Koinon Hellenon expansion seems reasonable, that is, seldom existent.

The Koinon Hellenon is an Anti-Makedonian construct, which alone makes me detest it, and once they achieved their goal, they would have continued each on their own.

I am also a fan of Macedonia.........Hammer & Anvil tactics of Alexander are the best way to annihilate civilizations still KH should give some challenge to me........
