What Factions would you like to see in Empire Total War

[Cornwallis]

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

[Bijo]

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

How could Prussia be in the game if IIRC, it was Napoleon you dismantle the HRE ?? What will be the time period of ETW ??

Any hint on that someone ?

I have an awful memorey, but if i remember correctly, the revolutions start in 1784, and napoleon came to power in 1799, and the napoleonic wars finished in about 1815-1820, so these states would exist.

Though regardless of that fact, prussian forces were at waterloo if i remember correctly.

Yeah they were at Waterloo, I'm sure this will be some kind of factor in the historical battles, assuming the game goes up to 1815. Although it might since the article in another thread states that the American revolution is at the tail end of Empires, and in the official website, it states that the French Revolution is included also.

Of course that opens up another topic which will be saved for another thread, War of 1812 units, US and English soldiers looked quite different from the American Revolution and the War of 1812.

I remember seeing somewhere there'll only be ten playable factions. Or maybe that's ten playable factions at the start.

The Frenchie Revoulution started in 1789 and went until 1794. Nap became a General and blew the rebs away. His campaigns into Italy started in 1796, and he kept going, conquering Italy, until he reached Egypt. THen the whole Nelson thing, etc,etc.

[Jack Lusted]

Confirmed factions so far in Empire:

Britain
America
Sweden
United Provinces(Netherlands)
Poland-Lithuania
Russia
Prussia
Venice
Spain
France
Ottoman Empire

And there will be around 50 factions in Empire.

Yes indeed Princer Blütcher was their commander. Since the last Holy Roman Emperor was "abdicated" by Napoleon and the Empire itself dissolve in 1806. Although after reading a little on the subject, there seems that Prussia and Austria were already "powers" inside the HRE but would they be included as Emerging factions, the HRE players having to decided which kingdoms he wants to rule from now on ?

[Trax]

The HRE is a rather pointless concept by 1700. The different states within the HRE took opposite sides in the great coalition wars.

Bavaria vs Austria (and the Emperor) in the War of the Spanish Succession.
Prussia and Hannover vs Austria and Saxony in Seven Years War

etc, etc.
