    Yeah, those Bartix are really hard to find reliable information about so we've had to postpone 0.9 several times already. We've dispatched an expedition to Atlantis, where we hope to recover important artifacts that will answer a lot of our questions. Unfortunately their transport didn't handle the depths very well, so it broke down and they will probably return in some years after building an underwater teleportation gate. We hope it won't flood our server room when they come back, or it could be further delayed.

    The lengths the EB team will go to to get the facts. We're like some investigative journalist.

    Investigative journalism? Hmmm...

    Klerouchikoi Phalangitai
    Klerouchikoi Phalangitai have recently been spotted binge drinking and having to be forcefully evicted from various strip clubs. A close source reports: 'They've been going through a hard time right now and are finding solace in a cocktail of drugs'. Polybius was not available for comment, and his secretary muttered something about a hangover. For exclusive seedy pictures, turn to page 4 for the full exposé of why they consider Gaesatae such big friends...

    Just in case anyone didn't catch our preview. It's a bit old, but details a lot of the new faction. It's somewhat inaccurate, of course, seeing as we're still waiting for our Atlantis expedition.

    Nice preview! Looking forward to that!

    Well, I guess I shouldn't have asked the question in the first place. Will just have to guess which factions are the most "safe" to play in this version. Anyway, even though you get this all the time, thanks for a great mod. Possibly my favourite game ever (vanilla didn't come close to that, its probably outside top20!;). Just wish I had more time to play...

    Here, I'll just leak the secret. Factions with changes that you'll want to try out after the next release: Hayasdan, Pahlav, Romani, Sweboz, and maybe Arche Seleukia and SofitBinSofit SofitSofit (Carthage).

    EDIT: You might want to replay Arverni, Aedui, or Casse, too.
    EDIT2: Saka or Baktria might be fun too. And Epieros will have some changes.

    Talking Re: Changes to factions in the next version

    Wow, thanks! Didn't expect that!

    Now I can start a new campaign feeling a little bit safer . I almost think the next one will be Baktria. Or Getai. Or Koinon Hellenon. Or Sabyn. Oh, crap, I can't decide! They're all so good!

    Edit: Didn't see your edits MarcusAureliusAntoninus. Well, I think I will leave Baktria to the next version then also. I probably won't have time to play more than one or two campaigns before the next version is out anyway (even if it takes years). But on the other hand, smaller changes do not bother me, so I might chose Baktria anyway.

    Everyone has to play Makedonia til the new build comes out!!

    Or did you just forget to mention them? If that's the case, then we can't play anything til we get the nod!
