Alright Chapter 1.1 is up here are some notes:
As you may or may not be able to guess, this is a prequel of sorts. In the game, Tantalos is the faction leader at age 60 with a whole region under his grasp. However, while researching for this story, I started thinking that it really wouldn't make much sense for their to be one tribe from the start who controls this whole swath of land. So I decided to put start the story by telling how the Lusitani in my game gained so much influence.
Sorry about the lack of pictures, that came partly from laziness, and partly because it would be a little tricky to represent the action of this story in-game.
I promise that the next couple sections will have pictures, so that's something to look forward to.
Sorry about the delay in updating, my personal life got in the way as I had to put out a 5-page essay for English class this weekend, leaving me with minimal time for writing. However it did give me a bit more time for researching the Iberian peninsula during this time.
Also I'd like to thank Oudysseos for his extremely informative article The Pillars of Hercules as this is where I got a lot of my research from regarding this section, and the AAR as a whole. Without that stuff, I think I'd be pretty lost. Also thanks to Vasiliyi for the link to the site with all the Celiberian/Iberian/Celtic names. That site is way cool.
As always, I hope you enjoy reading the update as much as I enjoyed writing it, and I encourage you all to post any thoughts on it.
