No, because EB is designed to play with RTW not BI, some features won't be avaliable (including the two formations you mention above). However, there quite a few mini-mods for EB that add these two features (among others) to EB for playing with BI. I recommend Watchman's mod as it basically only changes units and nothing more, though the gameplay will be slightly different even with just Watchman's mod (as the units with the shieldwall will perform better than they would under vanilla EB conditions).Originally Posted by jerby
Depends on what faction you are playing. Mining is much improved, which significantly alters the economics of certain provinces (Pella is one of these). Of the factions I believe that the Romans, Ptolemaioi and Carthage have the best economy, and whilst others do start in the red a few of the more powerful factions can easily get out of it.one last question: do you still start out in the red figures on a campaign? (getting flashbacks of the Arche Seleukia being at -30 000 and mining being a bitch...)
