Is the decrease of public order normal ?
That's a good idea for Pontos right now actually spendios. They don't have as many elite units right now as some factions. It might be a good idea for you to keep 2's and 3's and some 4's mixed in there instead of going for 1 everywhere. I put a 1 in Sinope and had a long slow go of it. I'm putting a 2 in nikomedia right now.

We will probably have this big exploit fixed in the next patch too - where you can't build any units without a government building in place. So that will help a lot. But until we get bonuses tweaked for govts (we aren't working on that just yet) and some of the best units for pontos in, it might be better to try 2's, 3's and 4's more often for them.

GMT - yeah, the map is finished now, but it's not implemented into the game yet. So you won't experience what is on that map yet.
