Large Regions

[moonburn]

i still defend that the stepps should be 1 single region with no capital and nomadic troops shouldn´t pay upkeep (or the horse type of units at least in the stepps) so for anyone wanting to build an empire on the stepps it would just be a constant struggle to defeat random eleutheroi stepp army´s and with the cash made from the looting of those defeated armies raise more troops

that would simulate the usellesness of the stepppes and how dificult it really was to try and destroy a nomadic faction before they became setled

maybe had a few psf´s for camping areas and define "grazzing rights"

and it would give a lot of extra regions :D
sounds tempting but I'm a: curious about a different use for psfs and b: don't know how a player controlled steppe warlord should assemble anything above the starting army or replace casualties.

on topic: there will have been several little settlements throughout a steppe region but the same goes for "civilised" regions with dozens of not depicted cities and little villages with still a higher population of a steppe camp, so probably there are about the same amount(tho I would rather estimate even more) of settlements in a region of greece and a steppe region due to lesser density.

Wouldn't that also destroy the idea of steppe factions?
