Thread: Which factions will change the most?

    Default Which factions will change the most?

    Hello

    I'm going to start a new campaign this week after banging my head against the brick wall that is the Saba campaign (still very enjoyable though).

    I got to thinking that some time in the future there will be a new version out and I don't want to play a faction which is about to be updated. I do check all the previews, lovely one today btw, but I have kind of lost track as to which ones are going to be majorly changed.

    Can anyone tell me which ones are going to be updated?

    Thanks

    Having problems getting EB2 to run? Try these solutions.

    I do NOT answer PM requests for help with EB. Ask in a new help thread in the tech help forum.

    Yeah, saba, sweboz, pahlava all get bigtime changes. KH probably changes the least, but they get the Spartan agoge system too. The others get new generals and captains. Lots of new bodyguards and generals all around. Hard choice, but I might go with Aedui/Arverni/Casse. There are nomad changes, getai changes, just tons of changes all over really.

    But what Inquiring Minds Really Want To Know(tm) is, of course...

    "Let us remember that there are multiple theories of Intelligent Design. I and many others around the world are of the strong belief that the universe was created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster. --- Proof of the existence of the FSM, if needed, can be found in the recent uptick of global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters. Apparently His Pastaness is to be worshipped in full pirate regalia. The decline in worldwide pirate population over the past 200 years directly corresponds with the increase in global temperature. Here is a graph to illustrate the point."

    "By Christmas" mainly reminds me of the First World War...

    Only 1918 years to go then! Or should that've been 3118 years there?

    "Something can be done, by careful analysis, to sort out truth from propaganda and legend. But this is where the real difficulties begin, since each student inevitably selects, constitutes criteria, according to his own unconscious assumptions, social, ethical or political. Moral conditioning, in the widest sense, plays a far greater part in the matter than most people- especially the historians themselves-ever realize."

    On the subject of WWI, I would just like to say the Canadians were AWESOME!

    Yeah, thats right.

    Hopefully by the time 1.0 gets released, I'll have a decent enough comp to play it properly. One can only hope.

    On the subject of WW1.. dont forget the Ruffians. Nobody can beat their deadly charge and the Great General Winter

    As a hardcore Casse fan I hope Generals unit get better for them. Thats all I can ask for.

    Cant wait for 1.0..

    On the subject of WWI, the air warfare was AWESOME. And yes, Canadians were pretty awesome too. If you combine those two, you'll see that out of 1900 aces, 190 were Canadian. That's pretty nice, 10%.


    So what was the subject again?

    No, Mustard gas would be out of the time frame. As in: "EB: 2 words, 1 goal, 0 flaming pigs". Dixit Moros.

    Yes, the world needs another "lets bash germanz" thread, indeed.

    BTW: The austrians were awesome too (try to manage a army with 3 official languages)!

    Not counting the post victory feasts of course. Because if hollywood has taught us anything, it's that no wartime feast is complete without a roast suckling pig on the table.

    Rabbit heartily recommends these EB AARs.

    Aww, come on. Germans fought a hell of a fight, and in my mind were unjustly blaimed for the war. The only thing I have against the Germans in WWI is that Albatros D.V should have been tested more before pushing it to the front. The Austrians... well, they did produce Aviatik D.I, which was pretty stable after a few updates, and... no that's it. Austrians weren't very aerodynamic.

    Usually all WWx threads are hijacked with comments like "germany = nazi till the end of all times". And this will result in a whole flame war about how bad my ancestors were, and that we children are guilty till the end of days. EVERY nation paid a high price in EVERY of the two world wars, but it´s useless to "hunt down" someone who can be sacrificed to take all the bad reputation which resulted out of these damn wars.
    Talking about history is quite fun, but since EB is a ancient focused mod, please stay in good ol´ alexanders times.

    Feel free to talk about "What happend if Phyrrus didnt died", but please do not talk about the politics about the past 100years. This topic can ruin all.
    But if you want to talk about technical innovation during the WWs, well, this IS in fact a very interesting area, but PLEASE dont let it get political!

    Sorry if it sounds a bit harsh, but this day isnt my best, so don´t take it too serious.

    So long,
    Julian


    ah yeah, for the topic: There are some nice things for all factions

    I would much rather bash communists actually

    But i don't think that would be a good idea either (because some people get very touchy when it comes to politics)
