    I've unlocked the greek cities and have been playing them. The family tree works the same as for the romans. The spartans rule the confederacy of greek cities. So most of your initial heirs have names like Merikos of sparta.

    Well as the Parthians (yes, I made all factions playable, ask me how if you want to no, you won't be the first or the last ), I've had a real problem with people... only one heirs, but fortunatly he's got a few sons.

    Family is more important than ever. Having only a few relatives can really hamper you.

    There is an option that allows management of a city that has no governor. If you elect not to do this (as I do) you cannot issue orders to a city until a guv is present. What I have done when short of relatives is to shuttle someone from city to city and queue up the builds and troop calls while he’s in town. The city fathers will then go on to do what they’re told after the capo leaves (baring a rebellion of course). This is also why cash is deducted promptly for every action you queue up, i.e. so you can’t try to spend the same money more than once down the road. You can get money back by canceling orders in the queue.

    So far, I have only had a couple of offers of marriage, and I take those. Haven't seen any chances to actually arrange a marriage, though.

    Once you get into the later game you're going to have an obvious shortage of Governors/Generals to administer each city/army by themselves. It might be best to use good Generals as they come and then use a couple Governers to cycle through your most important cities, queuing up armies and buildings and letting those be built as the Governer continues cycling between cities. At the moment I'm probably going to be doing this as I'm stretching thin - 2 Govs for 5 cities and the rest for my expansions. The only problem I see with this strategy is a huge loss in money from not having the Management on hand for the high production that good Govs give.

    Most of you haven't noticed the automange if no guv toggle on the campagin start screen. Cities with no governors make less money and are less loyal but it can be done.
