I would believe that Rome as well as other nations are going to be represented as single entities govern by CK like characters. Or at least that's the impression I have been getting.
I would imagine that it would depend on gameplay requirements. I would think that Paradox would do Octavian vs. Mark Antony for example as different nations, while certain internal conflicts as internal events for a single Roman state.

I can imagine you wouldn't even need two nations for that: instead the player could choose sides via event and the other one could simply turn rebel.
The punic wars could be extremely interesting in MP btw, with two teams of players taking over Carthage and Rome

i thought johan was god :rofl:
seriously i don't know how i would be handled, but the rebublic of rome without serious internal dissent and the odd civil war would not be rome
it would just be EU3BC
edit: is the senate going to be a major part of the game?

This can be done by a separate, political part. I don't know how Crusader Kings handled that, but splitting up Rome in several states doesn't make any sense.

For the first 100-150 years of the game, Rome was pretty stable AFAIK. There was a lot of politics going on, of course, but little in the way of bloodshed and no civil war.
Of course this changes quite dramatically in the 1st century BC
Rome was one state with several factions within that state and thats how I think it should be represented. RTW-way was unrealistic with several Roman nations doing what they want, but the player controlling unitary roman state is not realistic either.
A solution like the one in Pax Romana, only correctly persecuted and bug free as well as actually working would be wonderful.Iudex said:

Indeed, but since the game's gonna have EU3's start anytime feature, I would guess that there would be two nations if you start during the civil war.
However, I'd think that that would require a "Become Rome" event for the victor or perhaps for anyone who manages to occupy chunks of Italia and Rome itself.
cheers
ya, I disliked the RTW's three-factions set-up, drifting a bit too far away from history.
This would be nice to get an answer for in next weeks diary (hint hint johan ;-) haha )
For those who have never played Pax Romana, you can download the manual here. The information on Political Factions starts on page 31.Mulliman said:
