thank you very much Ludens - i think i´ll get it now slowly.

didnt know that forced relocation took place back then - but as you said the assyrians did it frequently and in the EB era Pompey Magnus with the pirates - besides that it was not common in the EB era.

just checked these options in vanilla RTW now after more then two years - well yes: the occupation-options there sound coherent in name only but´ illogical in the effects. - my memory tricked me.


i see it exactly the same way - why should slaves be counted to the recruiting population of other cities ...and why doesnt pour all the cash in when choosing the enslave option.

so actually the EB expell option isnt something which was common in this era but anyway now available in opposition RTW.?

the EB enslave option is really meant as enslavement and not extermination.? - so when playin´: we must ignore the slaughter sounds, the message and the burning of the settlements? (they only appear because it is hardcoded)

then only: the real extermination option is missing now in EB - ...but all together the best compromise because this stuff is hardcoded in the RTW engine.?
in other words - when playing EB - we play the factions more human then they actually were sometimes.?

please let me know if i got it right now?
