Why are these factions missing in Immortal fire?

[Witan]

I have looked on the new army list for immortal fire and noticed, that some factions are missing, that would be quite necassary to model the conquest of cyrus the great and his son.
Since Lydia is already in the list and also some other nation lists extended to 550 BC, I ask myself, why some other important actions are missing to properly cover this era.

Especially:

-Neo-Babylonian Empire
-Median Empire
-Late egyptian

Is it planned to include this and maybe other important nations of the 550 BC time periode in a further dlc or why are they missing?

I am fairly certain that there will be another DLC for armies earlier than 500BC.

Correct.

Originally Immortal Fire was intended to cover the Graeco-Persian wars and start in 490 BC. The unit models were created accordingly.

We then decided that we might as well include the Lydians because we could make their army with existing models.

A lot more models will be required for the armies you listed, and that will have to wait for another DLC covering the fall of the Neo-Assyrian Empire and the rise of the Neo-Babylonian, Median and Persian empires.

Ok that seems legit for me!

Thank you for answering my questions =)
