I think Epeiros should be lower Rep since Pyrrhos' mercenaries looted Aigai.

I think that was due to the nonexistent naval invasions in EB, in my games once Rome gained control of Sicily it was all over, or the two factions got separated by the Eleutheroi or Epeiros...

Good point, also Pyrrhos managed to be hated pretty much by the whole greek world...

Add another to the list:

The Faction of Arjos
Reputation: Despicable
Relations: Abysmal
At war with all players at start of game

And thes inter-faction "feelings" change while the campaign progresses, or are these static?

Does anyone know if these parameters are moddable / savegame-compatible during a campaign? Would open up pretty decent possibilities for epic rp-gamers.

They change, for example once when played as England I never started a war with any faction (I let them attack me instead) and my reputation went from Mixed to Immaculate in a some hundred years. Though I kinda ruined it when I declared war on all of Europe (after which I was known as being Despicable). The same of course goes for Relations as well.

I'm not sure, I hope so.

Oh yes, faction standings and faction relationships are dynamic and vary over the course of the game in response to their actions. I'm not clear how much they actually affect the gameplay, but they definitely change.

They change, I tried to set them according to the events prior to the EB start date...
In theory they help to keep alliances, avoid factions attacking trusted ones for no reasons etc...
