FACTIONS AND CULTURES:

Brief introduction:

The mod have the 6 native cultures from Native, divided each one in 3 or 4 different factions (with 1 town each one). The cultures are subdivided in two types, the state ones and the tribal ones. The type each culture will influence the troop tree in a way that will be explained in that article. The base cultures (forget about bandits and mercenaries for the moment) are Nubian (tribal), Egyptian (state), Levantine (mixture), Mesopotamic (state), Anatolian (tribal) and Cycladic (tribal).

About cultures and troop tree:

Basically I try to make this mod with some "battle tactical" issues. That idea is the base of the state and tribal troop tree differences. The firts case have all or most of the troops duplicated, so you can place it in battlefield i different groups having exactly the same statas. The tribal troop tree instead is unidirectional, like common warband troop tree, so your battle deployement tactics would be mostly inexistent (the idea is a bit confusing).

State treep concept and sample of field placement (same colors, same units duplicated)

Tribal troop tree concept.

I know the article is not too long but I have not time to do a more deep one
