Preview: The Boii (III)

Another thing to note is that pronunciation tends to have a bias towards whatever the limits of the native language of the speaker. Take ancient Greek for example: a French person will have difficulty with the Greek phi, an Englishman won't know what to do with an upsilon, a Japanese will struggle with the rho and a Greek will mess up in other ways since the alphabet simply doesn't make the slightest bit of sense to him...

Yea, I was wondering if the lines had been read by an English-speaker.
To me it would seem like a trill or flap would be more natural, but I'm no linguist.

Well, I think I've been lurking for too long and its time to show some apreciation to the great EB team (While I rarely post here I've been around since EB 0.9 and check this forums and the twitter almost daily).
Atonishing work (as we can always expect from the EB team :P) Can't wait to see the new and reworked factions in action and what else do you have in the sleeve!
But I must wait, since perfection is the soul of EB and perfection takes time. But it worths it

Also, the information in the previews (as surelly will be ingame's) is perfect to those who, like me are very interested in classic story but due to many other interests and ocupations can't spend much time investigating it. Eagerly waiting to see the new material in the Lusos (and other iberians) cause even for a Portuguese isnt so easy to get much knowlage on them, thanks EB for filling that void

I am sorry, but what do you mean by "counted as Celts"? Recruitment in EB2 will not resemble that of EB1, so doubtlessly the reforms will be very different too.

Did I miss something? Are the Arevaci confirmed?

[Rahwana]

That sounds all right, afterall they were referred to as mercenaries, doubt every community would be glad to hire drugged fanatics, if so we need to get our hands on that recipie XD

BTW, Gaisatoi with 1 HP? duh, for historical accuracy, this is good, but in gameplay terms, we all lost our ol' favourite nudist monster

I was saying that in reality, most likely they were highly prized warriors due to they professionality and elan due to religious beliefs...

Anyway moving on, I've read recently about a "coral trading route" from Naples to central Europe, would this be implemented similar to the amber one?
