and so ... the second map border version is closer?

[Bercor]

This will be the map borders:

[xeofox]

OMG! There is no place for Sakas and Wusuns. Only the Sarmatians, dahae and part of massagetae.

[xeofox]

well then like this:

[ahowl11]

The Saka and Wusun can be simulated by invasions and scripted armies

[b257]

The Saka and Wusun can be simulated by invasions and scripted armies

The BI horde feature will be ideal for this .

[xeofox]

ok. One more (cuted) variant.

[ahowl11]

Okay and you said the Parthians need to be fighting the Dahae t this point?

[xeofox]

All borders are conditional. Dahae can be cuted, you can cut the Sarmatians also. Saka and Masagetae you can mix it.

[xeofox]

Massagetae not distinguishable by culture and arms from Sakas. Dahae is a Union nomads (saka and massagetae).  Parni from Union Dahae! They are nomadic people. Based on historical sources, everything is relative. The framework can be drawn according to historical sources, which are different  and uncertain.
waiting for your suggestions and criticisms!

[ahowl11]

Didn't the Parni split from the Dahae though? We have to have the Parthians so we can't call them the Dahae

[xeofox]

If the mod starts in the 3rd century BC the Parni appear from the Dahae and go to Northern Parthia.
approximately 250-240 BCE

[ahowl11]

The mod begins in 280 BC. What settlements should the Parthians have?

[xeofox]

I know of Antioch and Nisa (can be), ((
