    Are you aware of the existance of the faction-limit? The game cannot accomodate more than 21 factions, despite the efforts of many modders.

    Ah, I see. Well, part of your list is already implemented (silly me didn't even review it properly ). Both Suebi (Sweboz) and Averni are in the mod; Cantabri are IIRC part of the Iberian coalition; and the Parisii fall under either Aedui or Averni alliance. The Samnites were subject to Rome in the mod's time frame, though they did manage one major uprising.

    The three remaining tribes are in an area that is already very very crowded (and many people feel there already are a bit too many Celtic factions). Off course, if you can provide arguments why these should be represented as factions, I think the EB team would be very interested. After all, the Belgae were seriously considered as an alternative to the Casse.

    ooooh it would be cool if there would be an Indian civilization

    Imagine.. thousands of not as strong soldiers and hundreded of horses, chariots and Elehpants... that would be quite the faction

    You could just insert a small bit of the Mauryans, but still it would chnage the game nicely

    As Scott mentioned, Samnium would be great faction to replace Yuezhi. What I know about them ( what really is not so much) they seem to have inresting troops, history and big role to Roman, and Greek world.

    For the 100th time, no Mauryans in EB, too much of their empire is off the map.

    The Samnites are a conquered subject people of the romans by 272.

    Arverni are already in, the Sequani are their subjects. Suebi are the Sweboz. The Belgae were seriously considered but not taken. The Helveti were subjects of Noricum who later migrated (they'd not actually be indepedent at the outset of EB, they'd be part of Noricum), so Noricum would be possible, but was incredibly tiny, though they would have some neat stuff. The Parisi were subjects of the Aedui in Gaul, and the British Parisi were tiny and severely overshadowed by the Brigantes.
