    There are a lot of rebel provinces. The factions really only have what they had in history, and that leaves a lot spaces in certain areas. But they aren't just generic "rebels", there are unique units that are rebels.

    Does EB use the same ERE/WRE rebel factions that BI had? I haven't played BI myself, but reading about the system it seems perfectly cut for the Seleucid and Ptolemaic empires who did have many trouble subduing seperatists because of the sheer sizes of their empires. It would also add some more challenge, because the Seleucid are in a vastly advantagous position due to their many rich provinces.

    Question Re: How many factions in EB?

    I believe the problem with that system is that each "rebel" faction requires it's own faction slot, so implementing it unfortunately eats away at the number of of available faction slots very quickly?

    EB is not on BI, so no. However, I can tell you (as a Beta Tester) that the Seleukid and Ptolemaic rebels will be a severe problem anyway.
