    This post is not about "trashing" the game... but just simple questions...

    I just keep asking myself why they removed so many provinces in this addon and let the map size the same... why removing provinces ? Even in vanilla 1.0, many player complained about the small number of provinces and map extension, considering the posibilities of the game in recreating at least a reasonable historically-acurate environment.

    The Sassanians and the Huns stretched alot in the east... sometimes, troubles in the east stopped the Sassanians from fighting the ERE....Stopping the map somwhere just east of the Zagros Mountains is like cutting down from history half of the Sassanian Empire... Egipt reduced to only one province ? Sahara the same... reduced.... when all those small Tamazigh kingdoms played such an important role during the vandals, until late up to the arab invasion ... "Colonia Dacia" ? Never existed such a town... maybe "Ulpia Traiana Sarmisegetuza"...

    The same question is for Alexander also... they made so few provinces... and made the campaign a sort of "race against the clock" , the factions... not nice at all... no comment...

    I know modders have already solved those problems regarding provinces, turns, skins, factions etc, or work to solve them... but why not resolve them in the original game ?
