It looked fantasy driven to me. But, then again, most fantasy is based off ancient, Northern European cultures.

thx that you included the akkadian infantry in the sneak peak! great stuff!!!!!
Overhand spears for the Akkadian infantry. Interesting design choice.
The latest tweets and sneakpeaks have been taking my breath off, very impressive!
Just a question, are Pahlavah and Hayastan going to have the same horse archer and foot archers units as the Sauromatae or different units?
Pahlava have their own horse Archers. You can see some Pictures in an old tweet. Hayasdan has a whole range of units as well, many are however shared with Pontos, and are more general anatolian/caucasian units. Of course, they can recruit sauromatae units as well as mercs, or as regionals.
Thank you for the answer!
I just asked because in the sneakpeak Brennus posted about Pahlavah, the unit cards for the horse archers, foot archers and nobles look like the ones from the Sauromatae preview. That didn't seem to fit in the filosophy of EB of showing the different cultures instead of generic types of units but since I know there is a lack of manpower to create units and that many will have to be shared between factions I was a bit afraid that necessity had lead to such a decision.
Now I'm happy!
PS: But yes, now I remember the tweets, I think I have the images stored somewhere on my harddisk and they are awesome. :)
The presence of some Sauromatae units in the preview pictures was due to the Pahlava recruitment being reworked and not fully finished, and some Sauromatae placeholders were there for the time being. That will not be the case in the release.
