[QUOTE="ProfessorPain, post: 4649732, member: 82012"] These seem to nail it. Again if your campaign world is big, you can always have an expanding roman-esq empire in the east, and a thriving greek-like culture in the west. Or you can completley combine the two. Make the empire less strongly centralized. Or at least, less well equiped to deal with threats in an organized way (perhaps the legions are occupied with a barbarian threat to the north? Or you can deviate more from history, and have them facing a threat that is more sinister. Personally I wouldn't worry about it not fitting the points of light concept completely; as points of light never struck me as all that interesting or believable. The issue really is there needs to be conflicts in the game world, and room for adventure. Also, don't knock the orc invasion. The roman's could deal with threats; but what if they are fighting multiple wars at once; or dealing with internal rebellions; or the orcs just plain outnumber them. [/QUOTE]
