What factions are the most finished?

Well, maybe "most finished" is the wrong expression. Make it, the "most worked-on". For example, Bactria is obviously very WIP, while Makedon is looking well off. So what other "makedons" are there?

well, i think Greeks (koinon ellenoi) is an almost finished facion, they have their personalized CM interface with a whole set of new icons, and the units roaster seems almost complete to me, there isn't still a general custom skin, but all buildings and thinks are all very accurate, it also seems they have all the units cards etc. So try this faction, it is really enjoyabile and the Torakitai oplites are really nice.

according to what i read, it seems that in the next version there will be also spartan oplites (even if i really dont care of them as i think they are not necessary). Regarding traditionnal oplites there also the Chorintian. This is the most complete faction i tryied so far.

I also read that the seleucids (arkè seleukeia) is one of the most completed, but i haven't tryed them (since they are my worst enemies in my actual campaign)

Chartage has some cool units but the general bodyguards are still vanilla and the numidian cavalry is the worst skinned of the whole mod (but they are just a placeholder)

gallic tribes seems also near to be complete to me, but no faction seems to reach the koinon hellenoi accuracy and cleaness in my opinion so far

that what i can say from my actual experience

Thanks Artas.

Could a developer make just a small and quick list in order to show us a ranking of the most finished factions?

Has anyone already made that list?

Thanks in advance.

I am not a developper, but based on my own experiences and various comments on these forums I think the list looks like this:

1) Aedui, Averni and the Hellenic factions are mostly finished. There will be some changes and fine-tuning, but I think most content is in place.
2) SPQR and Casse lack several key units, but are otherwise very playable.
3) Hayasdan and to a lesser extent Pontos are missing important units and their traits aren't done. They are playable, but obviously incomplete.
4) Sauromatae and Yuezhi are crippled by low income, high upkeep and relentless rebels. Serious tuning is necessary here. Iberia is has servere recruitment problems and is barely playable as well.

I am not sure where the Getai, Sweboz and Phalava stand, but I suppose they are somewhere between 2 and 3.

Bactria is between 3 and 4, right?

Sweboz are in bad shape too in my op they cant recruit almost nothing east of there starting city. So good luck stoping rebels and others in the east.
