    Default Has Anyone Seen Spartacus?

    I remembered a while back that it was whispered that Spartacus will be making a cameo in the game. Right now Corduba rebelled in my game with two units of Gladiators and a unit of peasants. Not too sure if the captain's name is indeed Spartacus but I would think if a rebellion is lead by him, it wouldn't be a measly three unit army and in the Iberian Peninsula no less.

    Spartacus is in the names file for the Slaves and Thrace. Pontus have Spartocus though.

    I haven't see the real Spartacus. Best I've had is Admiral Akbar.

    No, but I've had two gladiator revolts. The second being very widespread, encompassing most of my empire. And like Crassus, I had them put to the sword.

    GAH!

    Vanya invaded Thrace... and had to fight an enemy general (that is, family heir or faction ruler) named... SPARTACUS! Bastid was like 6 or 7 star gen at that!

    GAH!

    There are stories that Sparticus was a captured Thracian. But yes, I've seen it as a name for the Thracians.
