The concern at the time was that it wouldn't have been "a few icons." At the time it was a whole .PAK file worth of BI data. (Go into your RTW\Data\paks directory. I'm talking about one of those huge things.) I think we ran it by CA at the time? I don't remember exactly. But like I said, that was a year ago and that whole argument no longer applies because we're using the -mod switch.

Loyalty and religion working with 1.5 is interesting. We are at the 21 faction limit, so as you say loyalty doesn't appear to be very useful. Beyond that I can't see right now how we'd be able to use Religion in EB, particularly with the limitations you mention. That doesn't mean that it won't be used, just that it doesn't seem to line up with anything in this period of history.

If you can make a good case, I'll look into what it would take to implement.

To clarify things my posts are not meant to push the EB team in any direction whatsoever but just to list some available options that might have been overlooked due to misunderstanding.

That's how I read it, so no harm done. I am always interested in finding new ways to make this engine do cool new things, so please share if you have any ideas!

P.S. Nice title blacksnail!

For a while I was afraid it would be "The guy who broke EB recruitment," so I decided to pre-empt it.

Is it possible to make the rebels the counter faction for every other or specific factions that had to face large rebellions like Ptolemaioi or Arche Seleukia? For exmaple that if one of genrals is not loyal enough would start a revolt (similar to medieval:tw).

That is definitely worth checking out.

I was just wondering if the faction unloyal generals go to can be changed.

Like for instance a seleucid general who rebels at (or near) the start goes to the ptomlies as they are your current biggest threat, but later on rebeling generals go to the romans for instance or whoever the most powerful faction your at war with happens to be?

I dont know if its historically accurate but it sounds good to me :/
