    Lightbulb Re: Where is the Celtiberian faction?

    Yes, the KH existed as a unified faction, although not for long. Were the Celtiberians ever unified against an outsider? Not individual tribes banding together, but a real union? I don't think so. Sarcasm is arguing that the Lusotanians were far more cohesive, and that's why they have been preferred.

    That said, I do think we will be seeing a Celtiberian faction, probably the Arevacci. Just not the Celtiberians as a faction.

    Adding all Celtiberian tribes as one faction? Sure lets add all Gauls as one, or all Greek cities that weren't part of Chremenidean League (I can never spell that word correctly, even if my life depended on it).
    If a Celtiberian tribe will be added to EB2 it will be as one tribe, not every single of them in a union to appease Spanish total war clans.

    It would be more accurate from my point of view than a single faction as we have now. It is a very similar issue like we have with KH, or like with the Suevii. We have several really different tribes united under a single one, isnt better to have a more general name than one so privative?. But hey, if we add more factions in Iberia may be we can balance it more.

    So I can not say nothing against a new Arevaci faction, for me that would be a good election, and a really good news
    "This war between the Romans and Celtiberians is called the fiery War, for while wars in Greece or Asia are settled with one or two pitched battles, the battles there dragged on, only brought to a temporary end by the darkness of the night. Both sides refused to let their courage flag or their bodies tire". Polybius.

    That sounds real nice.
