Please depict the Gauls accurately this time (duplicate from TWcenter)

It is a special place alright!

A haven of maturity on the internet.

Indeed.

About this, i'm thinking about trying to attract CA attention's on the matter. I know the EB guys did that in the past about the celt/germans, it did failed, but it wasn't the same CA than today, their budget was limited and they didn't put as much attention into details as they are doing today.
THe fact that there are also previous modders in their rank now makes me think they are more receptive to the community.
Any tips to how to contact CA or at least attract their attention?

I don't see why contacting CA should be useful. If they really want to depict the Celts accurately this time they will have no problem getting the required data. Unlike in 2003/2004 even the most lazy people can find decent information about Celtic oppida and their defenses after a quick wikipedia search. At least in the german wikipedia already with some relevant scientific literature listed in the bibliography.
Also CA is already aware of EB as the mentioned the mod several times favorably in the past.

Yeah I explained several times that CA might not be aware that there is more to the gauls than barbarian. If they are not aware of this then they might end up making minimal research and give them the same generic barbarian feeling that they will share with the germans, britons, celtiberians...

I've always viewed TW games as somewhat historical, in terms of concept and spirit, but I never expect them to be similar to the early Paradox Interactive games, for instance. That said, despite the OP's potentially ranting style, I agree that the Gauls were short shifted, and some bumps in their tech, look of their cities, etc. should be incorporated.

I hope they will do that.
Like I said my main concern is the settlements : they are the only stuff who can't be corrected by mods, and they are the stuff that can make a northern campaign particularly interesting and diverse if accurately done.
