    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    I believe you have to conquer them, in campaign.

    No, to play as the Germans, you have to unlock them by editing the files. Or, you can just get this handy-dandy download to do it for you: Fraction Unlocker I think that CA didn't want us playing as the almighty Germans because of the fact that their economical situation is so horrid that it takes a pro to play them and not lose in the first 10 turns.

    or download the complete faction mod, at twcenter.net .
    Don't no the exact location so I can't post a link .

    Or youy can manually mod them in your game, but some one else can probably tell you more about that since I just downloaded the mod

    PS : just do as Mikeus said

    Oh, an unplayable faction.

    Hmm...

    C:/Program Files/Activision/Data/Maps/Imperial Campaign/descr_strat.txt

    With that file, you can alter the faction of your choice to be playable. It's fairly straight forward.

    The Germans are NOT an unplayable faction. Just win a campaign and the following factions will all be unlocked:

    Britannia
    Gaul
    Germania
    The Greek Cities
    The Seleucids
    Egypt
    Carthage
    Parthia

    Each of factions will also be unlocked after you conquer them in a campaign game.
    To play as the other nine factions (Spain, Scythia, Dacia, Thrace, Macedon, Pontus, Armenia, Numidia or SPQR), you'll either need to unlock them yourself manually or listen to Mikeus.

    There is less risk of f*cking up your files with my method.

    Just to clear things up, germania IS a playable faction, and you do not have to edit the game code to play. Other barbarian factions e.g Dacia, are unplayable and you have to edit game code to play as them.
