    I think shield wall would be good for Hoplites, Iphikratians and other semi-phalanx units. Needs testing, of course.

    3) Add the can_swim, warcry and can_horde attributes for specific units (semi-done)
    Swimming would be for unarmoured units. Horde units are clones of the existing units, but these always require a unit slot. There are some left, but not very much.

    Warcry would be very much available for most Barbarian units (but the others might have such kinds of encouragements too). The only candidate for berserc I can think of are the Gaesatae.

    4) Implement the religion system for EB (not done)
    That's a couple of work. It was discussed in another thread. With three "religions" I would go for:
    - Greek-Roman
    - Western (including Dacia)
    - Eastern (including Saba and Carthage)

    Invasio Barbarorum has more than three religions ASFAIK. It would also require a lot of rework on the trait file and EDB.

    7) Add night battles (not done)
    I think the repective traits are still in the EB trait file and re just commented out.

    3) Factions you wish to be re-emergent
    The Successor factions might all shadow each other. I would not make Parthia or other non-Hellenic factions shadow one of these. Unfortuantly there are no faction slots left to make counterfactions. The only candidate for deletion would be Bactria by handing her province to AS and make them a counterfaction of AS (the greys will certainly lose lands in the East by rebellion very fast).

    The Ptolemaioi usually have rebellions in their Southern provinces. Nevertheless these Satraps can as well declare for the Seleucid king and become grey provinces. Currently these lands go over to Saba, who do not make much out of the situation.

    Makedonia and Epeiros do not suffer much from rebellion, but if they should shadow each other.

    I would also keep an eye on sharing MICs to make the rebels really effective.
