A Druid Senate?

[Ranika]

That would not be historically accurate. The British druids had no real sway over the Gauls or Celtiberians or Gaels, they all had their own religious leaders. A single group of druids from Britain would not be ordering the Gauls to sack Rome. If there was a religious movement to attack Rome, it would come from the Carnute Cingetos in Gaul, not the British Druidae. More over, it would prevent Celts from fighting one another, and Celts were simply too warlike for them to be forbidden from fighting one another.

More over, the Celtic factions, like all factions, are being redone with historically accurate units. This is a historical accuracy mod, and they did fight in different manners and styles based on their lifestyles. Druids have been discussed and rejected for the Britons (they did not use Druidae in combat, when the Druidae fought, they were pushed to it), and screeching furies? Doesn't sound remotely proper or realistic. However, the new unit list will reflect the differences in the British warrior classes in different parts of Britain, as well as provide them with some strong, unique units, as opposed to rehashed units.

More over, the Roman Senate, I think, has been voted to remain, as there will still likely be multiple Roman factions, and I believe there can only be one Senate faction.
