According to the official features and the demo which I downloaded, the game allows you to choose from only 8 nations. However, on the Ageod forums I've seen reports of humans taking control of countries like China, Greece, Sweden, Belgium, Ottomans, etc. If I knew I could play a country like Abyssinia, especially in PBEM, that would make me much more likely to buy the game.

You can change to any particular nation via a console command - I've forgotten the details but they'll be kicking around the AGEOD forums somewhere no doubt. Whether that makes them 'playable' is a rather different issue; there's a reason for the eight and I'm fairly sure only they have have the historical 'events'. Been a while since I played PoN but I certainly wouldn't even consider playing outside those eight for a fun SP game. Never tried PBEM, but I suppose you might get away with adding a few carefully selected 'minor' nations. Not including Belgium

Here's what I got when I hit the console key:

Welcome to the A.G.E Console. Type '?' for Help.

?

Does anyone know where I can get a list of what the faction tags are?
EDIT: Never mind, I found the list myself:

Also don't mistake SwitchFaction with ChangeFaction. Switch allows you to play another faction, but you must wait one turn (the game must process a turn). ChangeFaction is for a quick look to another faction, although the game may prevent you from checking everything, as your turn is stripped of the infos on others factions you should not see (anti-cheat purpose).
