AOR Auxillia Project

Ahiga as post this in the TWC forum

Broken Crescent will be featuring an Auxilia System in 1.1, laying the foundation for a much more complex and specialized setup if we do 2.0. The system is meant to reflect local warriors and nobility fighting for foreign invaders, being accessed by invading powers only outside of their native regions.

Most Auxilia Zones will feature pretty much the same units to all invaders for now. However certain regions with large amounts of both Christian and Muslim Populations will be Dualistic, in that different Auxilia are accessed if the invader is Christian/Hindu or Muslim/Kypchak. Once we've sketched the overall system down, we may go back and specialize it so factions get a bit more from a foreign region they had ties to (Like Abbasids to Khorasan).

What we're looking for is unit ideas and suggestions for the system. They need to be local soldiers willing to fight for foreign invaders not of their religion or culture, unless the region is a dualistic one. Suggestions involving a simple rename of an existing unit are more likely than those involving unit changes or a brand new unit. However we'll consider all suggestions, although we will not be obligated to add any. All ideas are appreciated.
