The Black Sea Colonies Culture Pack expands the main campaign of Total War: ROME II with three new playable factions: Kimmeria, Pergamon, and Colchis. These factions originated from Greek colonies that settled far from their homeland, combining Hellenistic traditions with local influences from the East and steppe peoples. The Black Sea colonies offer a unique gameplay style based on hybrid armies, special buildings, and different cultural bonuses. All factions of this group benefit from research bonuses and accelerated cultural conversion, which facilitates the development and stabilization of provinces in foreign regions. Kimmeria is a kingdom that controls the strategic Bosphorus, profiting greatly from agriculture and cultural tolerance. The faction combines Greek infantry with Scythian influence, offering versatile and resilient armies and high internal stability despite cultural diversity. Pergamon focuses on urban development, science, and architecture. With significant reductions in construction costs, the faction is growing rapidly, and its armies are based on elite infantry and heavy cavalry. The unique buildings and technology of parchment emphasize the scientific and cultural character of the state. Colchis is a powerful trading state on the eastern edges of the Greek world, heavily inspired by Eastern cultures and nomadic peoples. The faction derives huge profits from trade, easily assimilates foreign cultures, and has heavy aristocratic cavalry capable of devastating charges. The Black Sea Colonies Culture Pack introduces new units, unique buildings, hybrid troop sets, and fresh strategic challenges. It's the perfect add-on for players who want to experience the less obvious but extremely atmospheric factions of the ancient world in Total War: ROME II.
