    Default Spoilers and Speculation Thread

    This is the thread which we'll be using to upload spoilers of upcoming previews. We actively encourage members of the community to speculate on the unit being spoiled, to which faction it belongs, etc.

    Also, this is the thread for general speculation about factions not yet previewed and, of course, the mod in general.

    Some sort of steppe noble. I will guess Sarmatian.
    From Frontline for fixing siege towers of death
    x30 From mikepettytw for showing how to edit in game text.
    From Brennus for wit.

    Parthohellenikoi Thureophoroi and horse archer might be dacian given their use of such troops, usage of scale armor and sword looks to be La Tène style.

    Parthians or Sarmatians. The silly hat gives away.

    OK, lets continue this. Tell me please, who might it be? If you could guess, I will post some fresh screen shots to encourage you. Small tip: this is a new look at some unit, which was previewed long ago.

    I'd bet those are Euzonoi.

    I'd say they are gaelaiche or gaeroas, but they (gaeroas) shouldn't be around anymore (during EBNOM's timeframe) or were they?
