    It is much improved really, I've only played one real campaign in Kingdoms but it was noticeably better and much more often occurring. Factions actually went looking for weak/rebel coastal provinces to invade.

    it's much better indeed
    one of my best Total War moments: me being busy at war with the empire as france, and suddenly a huge stack of irish troops lands in brittany and attacks my cities, without me even provoking the irish
    so yes, the ai sometimes does smart invasions
    Gott mit dir, dem Bayernvolke,
    Daß wir unsrer Väter wert,
    fest in Eintracht und in Friede
    bauen unseres Glückes Herd;
    Daß der Freund da Hilfe finde,
    Wehrhaft uns der Gegner schau,
    Wo die Rauten-Banner wehen,
    Unsre Farben – Weiß und Blau!

    In the 16th century, during the reign of Henry VIII, the English had the same idea. However the town they landed in had a good store of wine, so having gotten drunk the English troops just went home.

    So theoretically this could be the final faction list.

    The mods are on record saying they woin't use all ten "new" slots on first release, maybe they will have three spare for further releases (space bats mod?).

    Looking very balanced, the only one I really see coming on is Caucasian Iberia.

    So it won't be a problem to reveal the final map now?

    So all factions for the first release are revealed. Will there be previews of the other factions before the release of the game, or will they be revealed just before they get integrated? And will there be more previews of the already known ones?

    I know I'm responding to something old but what's great is that you can mod the ai to be even better in more direct ways compared to Rome 1.
