Koinon Hellenon Faction Guide and Background (Europa Barbarorum 2) 

Those first turns for the mainland Greek factions are some of the most intense moments the game has to offer tbh.

Perfect! Great job, only a guide on the Arche Seleukeia (or any kind of content really, long overdue stuff, there's nothing on EB2 on the seleucids - let alone a campaign - , which is a shame) remains as the second missing piece to fully bring, explain and tackle the hellenistic culture of the great Europa Barbarorum II. Well, on that, besides a colony and governments buildings video of course, that goes without saying for a truly complete guide, just like the romans and western polities in general would need if they'll ever get their factional guides too.

Love the channel, you rekindled my love for EB!

Fantastic, always happy to see more quality EB2 content

I have to check this series again when playing eb2 . Never fully understood how those mecanics work in this mod. Very helpfull

Great video, i was totally confused before. Altough there is a thing. You can't build Koinon Hellenon Administration lv3 building in Athens 'cause it requiers a minor city, despite the fact that Athens is a major one. I don't get it. Have you any idea? Also, i 'd like to hear your opinion about buildings that don't do anything at all, at least in this faction. Again, very good job!!

you replied to my OI comment faster than i could see another dude posting the same thing as me and deleting it. lmao, amazing videos for an amazing mod. this is the rome 2 we deserved.

Spot on content. Keep it up

Long and detailed video release, yes!

Please do continue!! We need more m2tw playersm especially mods like EB2 and SSHIP. So rare to find the videos

please make videos of the reforms of all factions

Hey, great vid! Could someone post the possible ethnicities for KH in EB2? (Athenaios, Spartiatas etc)

How do you obtain characters of different ethnicities? I have taken Korinth & Krete & Thermon but I can't get Archons for them due to ethnicity constraints. All my candidates for adoption are Athenian

I like the mod, but the AI progresses way too slow, especially in the West. I don’t mind taking a lot of turns to build up my own empire, but when it’s been 150+ turns and all the barbarians factions have taken like 1 region each and Rome hasn’t even made it to Sicily it gets stale. The Far East factions like Bactria and Takshila are good though.

I think you are undercutting Akontistai and the Sphendonetai. They are quite effective early game starting range units better than their equivalents from most other factions (the main exceptions are the Getai Komati), having good range damage and range distance and are available at the most basic tier of military for very low price. Yes they suck in melee but they are not meant for melee they are meant to soften enemy up before the main clash begins and support infantry fights which is important since you have limited cavalry especially in the early game and your most common archers the Toxotai are shit and Cretan Archers while they are the shit they are very expensive and rare. It is only when you have establish control of the Peloponnesian area its surrounding islands and established a working economy you can afford to phase Akontistai out for better missile units.

Me, Koinon Hellenon playing at N/N with the mod Europa Barbarorum 1. IA Mak and IA Epirus Me KH: Ok, because Phiros and Makedon are fighing eachother, I can deal with Makedon. Epirus: Good luck about that. Me: You gonna help me agaisnt Makedon? Epirus: Maaaaybe.... Mak: How lucky that Epirus decided to not take mi capital and do absolutly nothing. I gonna crush this filthy rebels and after that, deal with Epirus. Me: Ok, I have 1800 Makedons troops sieging Athens with only 900 defenders, 5 companies are mi generals, 2 cretan archers and some damaged units. Epirus a bit of help? Epirus: Have fun about that.... Me 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 After that battle: Me: I dont know how, I managed to deal with the treath and wipe out 1800 trops. I suposse that now Epiros really gonna do something.... Epiros: about that, maybe later.... Mak:😭😭😭 Me:😅😅😅

Not knowing what moves to do first as in the early moves as Koinon Hellenon is intense af, every move matters.

Fantastic mod. The only thing I'm not a big fan of is that the unit upkeep is too high.

What I did was, peace out Epirus, focus on Macedon, rush Dyrrachium, exchange Dyrrachium for an alliance with Rome, GG.

"U have this rebel hold provice with strong garrison" yeah no Shit, 80% of map is held by rebels with strong garrison xD
