so yes, the ai sometimes does smart invasions

In the 16th century, during the reign of Henry VIII, the English had the same idea. However the town they landed in had a good store of wine, so having gotten drunk the English troops just went home.

So theoretically this could be the final faction list.

The mods are on record saying they woin't use all ten "new" slots on first release, maybe they will have three spare for further releases (space bats mod?).

Looking very balanced, the only one I really see coming on is Caucasian Iberia.

Correct.

So it won't be a problem to reveal the final map now?

**Ptolemaios** · 01-08-2013, 14:50

So all factions for the first release are revealed. Will there be previews of the other factions before the release of the game, or will they be revealed just before they get integrated? And will there be more previews of the already known ones?

There could definitely be a preview of the Bosporan Kingdom. They were revealed probably two years back but we haven't heard much about them since.

Wow, I was just wondering which faction I'd most like to see a preview for, and I think the Bosporan Kingdom is definitely one. I guess their units may just be standard Greek fair, but I'm hoping for some unique flavor.

Well that´s true and would be quiet interesting. Since Rome and Carthage, as well as some other factions had a preview, I wonder if there will be some for Mekedonia, Aedui, Ptolemaioi, etc.
Another thing. I recall that the Koinon Hellenon from EBI will be reworked to some extend, would also make an interesting preview.
