An Occultus Faction possibly worked out?

"WTH?! How were we supposed to get that?"

Probably this reaction I fear.

It sure looks like a hump-backed lion to me. I don't think there's anything particularly Celtic about it. But when I focus specifically on the left-most portion of it, I can very easily imagine the head of either a canine-type animal or some horned mammal with big floppy ears... Like a gazelle with its ears turned down. If it were a gazelle, that would mean an Asian or African faction. But it seems that a Nubian or Ethiopian faction is out of the question, and I highly highly doubt they put another southern Arabian faction in. The most logical explanation: it's not a gazelle.

I think it's a symbol that 99% of use haven't seen before.

And I suppose you're that 1% that has seen the symbol. What did you have to pay the team? Did you have to prescribe your soul to bobbin?

Haha... No. I have no idea what it is. And i doubt anyone can say what that blur realy is. But people keep guessing, even tough i think it's impossible to know what it would be. One would have had to seen the exact same symbol many times (color, size) imo in order to put the pieces together.

But i guess one occultus faction must be in Arabia, since both gg2 and Moros used an occultus sig iirc

If you look really closely at GG2's sig, right at the bottom border underneath the letters of OCCULTUS, you'll see that the background was originally red. The green and grey was added on top of the red. So we have a stylized gold something on a red background, maybe a Skythian gold animal figure. Do the Saka count as an occultus faction?

[bobbin]

Occultus sigs are only for unrevealed factions.

ps the backgroud is definitely green, not red.
