    Default If one could add just one more faction...(Round II)

    Round II.

    This is based on the more popular choices from the first go.

    As I understand the make up of the game: options for either the Teutonic Knights or Burgundy would require them coming in as emerging factions. Even so...

    Given the era it starts in and the map, I narrowed it down to Aragon, Kiev and the Cumans, and plumped for the first.

    Interestingly the present leader (the Knights) is what i would chose last...

    I choose Kiev simply to give more love to that part of the map... The fourth muslim faction would be my second choice...

    Although I voted for the Baghdad Caliphate in the last poll, this time around I voted for Aragon (although the Caliphate is still my 2nd choice). In terms of gameplay, I think adding Aragon would overall make it more interesting than any other of the factions listed.

    I say this, however, in the full knowledge that I'm biased. I love having the Aragonese in MTW when I play as the Spanish--which is often.

    I vote for the Cumans as they would make the Byzantine Empire and the Hungarians stay on their toes.

    I forgot to add Serbia. It should have been added.

    OK, I've added Serbia to the poll. And given it my vote to make up for any lost time.

    Aragon (because it just makes sense). I can also see the chance for Burgundy to emerge if the controlling faction mismanages the area. I could actually see all except Serbia and Baghdad. I would treat the former as rebels while I don’t think the latter had much of an influence (didn’t they rapidly loose influence compared to their high start position?) especially compared to the Turks, Egypt, and the (tickle me) Elmos.
