Go to the EB website and you can learn a lot about the history of the faction we represent. There is an introduction to each faction, a history of each faction, and then a summary of their units. There's a lot of information there!

Even as it stands, the KH very rarely expand to have an empire. The best they can usually do is to take southern greece and then grab a few other coastal provinces here and there. There are always exceptions, but mostly they collapse like they did in reality.

I can't wait for 0.8. Naval Invasion AI! Even after being just reduced to Rhodes (As always happens in my Campaigns pretty much), they might still become a power by invading a coast somewhere. They might even take over Crete (Again it never happens).

they seem to collapse within the first few turns pretty regularly--in most campaigns Byzantion puts up a better fight than the whole KH (there are pleasant exceptions, of course), but that should be helped by making the maks a little more vulnerable in their start position, right?

History first

Although the Maks will be a bit more vulnerable in 0.8 (or there are plans for it), as Macedonia was particularly vulnerable towards Epeiros at this time.

And yeah, think we would have rather gone for Aetolian League or Pergamon instead of splitting Athens & Sparta into a faction each, as the two former did a lot more on the political scene.

OK I have a question?

Are the Greek Units STILL going to be speaking in Latin? Or are u guys still working on changing that?

Please.. we're professionals.

So, yes. That was just a culture problem in 1.2 but seeing as we can switch and swap factions around 7 cultures we won't have that problem at all.
