All the usual bunch of misfits:

English/British
French
HRE
Spain
Ottoman Empire
Russian Empire
Austria
Prussia
Sweden
Denmark
Lithuiana
Dutch
Portugal
(probably forgetting others)

I'd love to see some playable factions in the America's /India's/wherever you're going to colonize and repell the European invaders. Like the Monghol empire in India in the 17th c and such.

Please CA, don't make the mistake and have a HRE faction. Their power was broken in the 30 years war and would best be repersented as each indivuial state or strong rebels.

As for factions I would like to see

England/British
The Netherlands aka the dutch
France
Spain
Sweden
Denmark/Norway
Saxony/Poland
Baveria
Austria
Russia
Brandenburg
Pourtagal
Savoy

An Creimian Khanite could also be fun to play.

Don't worry about the HRE, we already know Prussia are going to be included. So far the official factions are:

Britain
France
Prussia
Spain
Ottoman Empire
America (emergent?)

My ideal faction list would be:

Code:

01. The United Kingdom
02. The Kingdom of France
03. The Crown of Castile
04. The Crown of Aragon
05. The Kingdom of Portugal
06. The Kingdom of Sweden
07. The Kingdom of Denmark
08. Prussia
09. The Electorate of Hanover
10. The Electorate of Saxony
11. The Electorate of Bavaria
12. The Austrian Monarchy
13. The Swiss Confederation
14. The Duchy of Savoy
15. The Republic of Venice
16. The Viceroyalty of the Two Sicilies
17. The Papal States

18. The Commonwealth of Lithuania and Poland
19. The Tzardom of Muscovy

20. The Moroccan Empire
21. The Ottoman Empire
22. The Crimean Khanate

I have nothing to add to the choices I'm seeing so far. It's unfortunate that the timeline just misses Mexico's struggles for independance and declaration as a republic.

Maybe as the first expansion or bonus campaign?

Definitely could see the first expansion being an collection of "struggles for independence" wherein you could fight your way to establishing any one of the following countries that "finally gained" their indepedent status in the 19th century:

Italy
Germany
Mexico
Belgium
Canada

That would be an excellent expansion!

**Cornwallis** · 08-23-2007, 21:22

how could Canada fight for Independence. UK past a law saying Canada had the right to declare independence.

**Bijo** · 08-23-2007, 21:53

The Netherlands should be in it certainly. It would be nice if its descriptions of units would be very short and to the point to save space. Also, prices of units and buildings should be cheap. It should be the best ration of price/effectivity. The units should also be very poor-looking. All of these kinds of things just to emphasize Dutch greediness

That would be great, however you must add one more:

Greece.

[I just picture the units in a Greek-ottoman struggle, awesome!]

Actually I feel that this is a must for an expansion. But not Just Greeks vs Ottomans. Serbs, Bulgarians and Romanians are needed at least. Balkan Nationalism expansion spanning from early 1800s all the way up to 1913/14 after the second Balkan wars or at the assassination of Arch Duke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary that sparked off World War 1.

Perhaps I am somewhat over stating the importance of this little corner of Europe but as an expansion I feel this would be one of the big ones.
