New factions!

[VictorF]

A Nord invasion dlc introducing both a scandinavian faction and ship warfare would be a logical expansion. Maybe they could even add some city-states on the islands on the coast of Vlandia and in the internal sea south of the empire, along some aserai pirates raiding the trade routes betwen those ports and imperial coas cities. Either way this map is way to big for just 6 cultures and so few factions as it is.

Have they fixed the current factions though?

This.

Definately a more Nordic faction. My first playthrough was as Sturgia and they just didnt quite feel right to me. (probably because they are more Kievan Rus than viking)

I would also love a Faction based off of Ancient greece, though i understand that it wouldnt make much sense(maybe a little but not really) Bronze age weapons and armours are really cool, and add some fantasy stylesque components to them to make them abit more plausible when used against medieval weaponry and armoury. Historically it will make no sense of course, but imo the ancient greek world is the best setting for games, films, series', books and really any kind of media coverage. This is something id love to see but it will most likely be modded in rather than in base game.

I've been using the Norsemen of Sturgia mod since it came out on Nexus, I've almost forgotten that the Sturgians were based on the Rus.
