I personally dont like Pontus, the only good thing about them is their unit varity and in that case the Selucids have even better units and provide more of a challenge earlier in the game, not to mention the Selucids start off with Antioch which is one of the richest cities in the game.

You wont be able to unlock pontus without modding the Data and Campaign text files

I like the pontus heavy cav, they are pretty decent if you ask me.
I didn't use any infantry for a while until i started getting pikemen; its easy to outmanuever the AI when you have a cav army.

yeah i've noticed that if you assassinate family members one after the other they start getting adoptions. Mind you the adoptions aren't as good and they stop getting them after about the 5th or 6th assassination.
At least thats from my experience.

Great faction to play. Lot's of variety and different armies and strategies during different periods. Highly reccomended.
