Re: On recruited generals
I understand it makes sence that way however I'm talking about the ethnictiy here, thus It's strange that a puppet king who rules over ... Massilia and is a celtic lesser king by discription is an ethnic greek from Pontos euxenius. And tbh a Puppet king would not be very convincing when he's from the Huge empire next door.

Re: On recruited generals
Ahahahahahah didn't know it was in Massalia in this case...
I guess you could RP it as the acropolis garrison's commander, not much loved by the local population, but still in control...
Similar to the macedonian Akrokorinthos :)

Re: On recruited generals
I did pick a particualry easy to misunderstand example, I have to admit that.
However what I mean is that it's unpleasant to roleplay. If I buy(yes I buy him) some local noble to speak in favor of my empire instead of installing a lvl3 gov and giving it to one of my cousins brother in laws uncle, I want that chap to have some fancy "exotic" ethnicity trait. Sure there is always a way to "pretend" hes some sort of hostage or the like that was "chosen" by his adopters in order to improve the relation to my empire but that's not something I want to do everytime I install a lvl 4 gov.
Again I know EB2 will handle government differently.
