I'm feeling cautiously optimistic about the game after seeing some streams. I might bite the bullet and pre-order.
I just want to play as Bactria. I always have, ever since Rome Total Realism introduced me to them, many years ago. Have any streamers played as them yet?

One of the devs played Bactria in the dev clash.
On a different note, did RTR extend the map eastwards that far? I remember Europa Barbarorum did so, and that was the mod that introduced me to Bactria and a lot of stuff out there. For a mod it also had a pretty drat decent original soundtrack (though replacing the standard soundtrack, at least the Roman stuff, was kind of unfortunate as the vanilla RTW was excellent, as that was back in the day when Jeff van Dyck did the soundtrack for the Total War games, and all of his soundtracks were fantastic), a lot of effort went into making that mod.
Yeah, I saw the dev clash, I was just wondering if any videos showcasing the Bactria start position particularly had come out.
And yeah, both RTR and EB included the edge of India. I spent so much time playing both of those mods, more time than vanilla that's for sure. I may have to get the vanilla RTW sound track and add it to Imperator though.

Roman history is basically a CK2 game in book form so why they didn't just go there I don't know.
I mean they also made the decision that the defining moment of the end of the Roman Republic, a popular and influential politician-general taking over by force, should be a game over. Which is still utterly baffling to me.
After hearing about the pop changes to come in Cicero I actually lost all interest in trying out Pompey. I get the feeling I'm just going to keep waiting for the next patch and never play anymore.
