BeBro: Some facts about the Illyrians. During the time the scenario starts, the leading power there were the Dardanians. The lived a little north of Macedonia (in today's FYROM), around the city of Stobi. Their cities were invincible fortresses because they were situated above clips and so forth.
Their most important king was Bardylis, who was a distant relative of Philippos. Bardylis got very old (nearly 100, I think). A big threat for the Macedonians in any way.
BTW, are you going to note the time when Philippos was viceroy of Lynkestis? 
Prometeus: It is very interesting to know that during the classical Age, there was a new foundation of Pydna. The elder Pydna remained a fortress, but the settlement was moved a bit north.
Methone, BTW, was the only Poleis of Macedonia...

Kull, thanks for the info, but this time it seems that the Barbs produce, despite that there are around 20 cities in there hands. I need them to make the conquest of the northern regions more challenging, so I have Barb cities in Britain, Gaul and Germany. If all works correct you can expect lots of different Barb units attacking from the north (different Germans, Gauls, Celts and so on).
Shadowstrike, I´m working now very hard( ) on the first playable version. Most of the cities are placed, there are some more as in V1.0, but there is still enough place for new cities. Only in Hellas it´s a bit difficult, due to the map scale Sparta, Athens, Corinth and Thebes are close to eachother (but I think it´s ok so).
Now the Independents are the biggest civ, their cities including some Greek colonies as well as Etruscan or Samnite cities. My idea is to make settlers obsolete for this civ, because this civ is only a "victim" for the great powers Rome, Carthage, and Macedonia... . However all the other civs have of course their settlers.
Another idea: as said before I´ll inplement a rising level of difficulty, so that the first conquests for Romans and Macedonians are easier then the next. This can be done via the city improvements (walls/barracks) and with placing different defenders (movement 0, not to build) in the cities (this will mostly affect Barbs and Independent cities) so that the weakest defenders are in the cities near Rome/Pella, but when your troops advance deeper in enemy territory, they´ll encounter more dangerous opponents. But all these ideas have to be tested...

from your very first statement about what civ to replace the Germans (gauls) with, why not Parthia. It played a major role in the east as the destroyer of the Greek kingdoms in Bactia and Syria (Seluids) wrong spelling.. They can start really small, say a settler in the beginning... give them abit of advantage over the region. They were a major problem with Rome for 200 years.

Good idea Civfan, but to late... , I´m close to the first playable betaversion  , and I´ve chosen Rome, Macedonia, Carthage, Persia, Greece, Egypt and the metioned Independents. Ok, I know I had much to leave out, but I think it would be still a funny scn...
