    Great stuff, I have to say, apart from Rivers, fords and water in general the Map really looks much like later(than M2TW) Total war games. The elevation, the scarcely farmland texture, really looks much more realistic than many M2TW mods.

    Awesome stuff! Thanks for the first info on the Bosporans since they were revealed Small little bonus, I like the way the border has been redrawn around Ak-Ink. It was a very strange province in EB.

    Thank you guys so much for the great screenshots! Really like what you're doing with the campaign map; it looks beautiful. I do find it curious that there are two settlements in Gaul (Lugdunon and Uiennos) practically next to each other, as seen in the Alps screenshot. I'd personally rather have another settlement in Iberia, but I can't pretend to be an expert.

    Those Eastern cavalry units look awesome! I planned to start my very first EB2-campaign as Carthage or Boii but I'm afraid I'll have to switch to Baktria instead.

    Great stuff al around, you guys!

    Well note that some of the Alpine settlements are no longer located there anymore so you may still get some extra settlements in Iberia.

    Well to me it makes an awful lot of sense to have both Lugdunum and Viennos.

    The campaign map looks great. I like how dispersed the cities are in many areas. It gives more room for land battles. Oh, and the mountain ranges look absolutely fabulous!

    I'm liking the previews and sneak-peaks so far. If I would request anything other than what has already been requested it would be some sort of sneak-peak at some of the gameplay mechanisms; a little more about how government and associated buildings will work, for example, of PSFs etc.
