  • Welcome to Top 5 Missing Factions from Empire Total War.
    In this video, we will look into Factions that could have been and would have worked well with the game.
    These are factions that I would want to have seen, for either historical, or gameplay reasons.
    Overall though, I am Not saying Empire Total War is a Bad Game because it lacks these. Nor am I saying these Factions will improve the game. But they could have been interesting.

      Great points on all but i would just add at least more indian faction. Two Indian factionfactions for Indian subcontinent is just to few considering it was more than just Maratha and Moghul at this time period, now, tbh i cant really remember just now which one i would add maybe Delhi or mewar, malwa something like that ( i read on uni about that literally years ago and our history education is eurocentric anyway so dont judge me to harsh 😋)

      If wallachia and moldavia, would be here, Hungary would be here also, because also as a Nation didnt declined just becamed the part of the Habsburg crown, also like Pomerenia. Or neither of those , and would becamed as the Part of the Austrian faction!Also the Moldavian, flag is may inaccurate, it was the same colours of Transilvanya. If you researching something, do it better mate!

      It's a good change, with some interresting opputunities. I personal would had like a more expanded map for south america (Brasil!) and the complete Arabic Pennisular, maybe even including the Ethiopia - Region. (I dont know, IF Ethiopia would work as an Faction, but it would be interresting, as another christian orthodox Faktion and for an Ottoman playthrough)

    The flag that you used for Tuscany is the modern republican region one: it would be interesting if the it would become the actual flag in the game after a revolution!

    • @RocketHarry865
      @RocketHarry865 2 роки тому

      The starting flag for Tuscany should be a simplified version of the Medici's Grand Duchy of Tuscany

      There should be an event in 1737 when the last Medici dies, and you get a dilemma of either accepting a takeover by the Hasburgs forcing you to become a protectorate of Austria-Hungary or rebel in attempt to become a republic

    Troops of Romanian Principalities in the 18th century:
    -Drabants of the Voievode's Guard (elite infantry of Wallachians and Moldavians)
    -Seimeni of the Voievode (line infantry of Serbian mercenaries)
    -Cossack Regiments of the Voievode
    -Arnauts (Light infantry of Albanian mercs)
    - Vanatori (elite riflemen)
    -Strajers (border troops, similar to Spanish frontiersmen and Austrian grenzers)
    - Haiduks (irregulars, guerillas)
    -Wallachian Boyars (already in the game)
    -Rosiori (Medium cavalry of Wallachian and Moldavian gentry)
    -Calarasi (Light cavalry)

    From my perspective Europe is pretty awesome, perhaps Venice as a great faction with bonus to diplomacy, perhaps Portugal with bonus to trade, and Switzerland sounds interesting but not sure how to make them special. United Provinces with cheaper ships.
    India needs at least another 2 factions is a big and wealthy map and just two guys with one of them winning almost always.
    For America we can accelerate history to make the game more interesting...perhaps the thirteen colonies starting as an ally of England but with affinity to France, Mexico starting at 3/4 of the campaign with affinity to France (France almost always lost they territories in America, so at least for me sounds not so broken).
    And Pirates as a playable faction with a global bonus at campaign movement and faster units, also cheaper units but weaker in every other aspect...all the units.

    i feel like India needs a few factions like Bengal so Maratha doesn't have it so easy.
    and to go of your idea of filling in north america, the Comanche/Apache confederation or something like that, so Spain has to divert some attention there so Spain's enemies like Portugal and the Netherlands can have some breathing space.
    and to also have some something to attack Spanish america from south america direction but it's hard to think of what as indigenous resistance what low during that century.
    also the pirate faction needs to be worldwide but split into factions so it's not some 1 op faction.
    or something in Kazakhstan other then a random desert.

    AT that time switzerland was not officially neutral but was keeping out of wars, except their mecenaries and was not really attacked since the peace of westphalia until Napoleon. While an interesting choice it would be less historical than expected, as the neutral not traversable land is quit accurate until a Napoleonic invasion.
