    Default Re: New factions?

    As far as my understanding goes the criteria required for a faction to make the EBII list is that they must be expansionist (amongst other things). Syracuse, post 272BC was not expansionist, instead it was constantly on the defensive against first the Carthaginians and then the Romans. Although it was a major regional power (defying both Rome and Carthage and playing a major role in Pyrrhus war) it was not an international power. It remains to be seen whether or not the Syracusan state will be included within a newly restructured KH. Compared to other powers in existence at the time of the EBII timeframe (Pergamon, the Arevaci, the Marcommani, the Belgae, the Numidians, the Pritano/Catuvellaunii) Syracuse was not expansive or international in its influence. If Syracuse were to be included as a faction then Rhodes, the Aetolians, the Masallians, the Palmyrans and the Tarentines would also have to be considered as possible factions.
