I concur.

This point was raised in another thread. I had asked about the historical accuracy of legios with "warmer clothes" I.E. Fur or leggings, etc as well as the possibility of implementation. It turns out that the idea appears suitbale for the homelands system. However, some expressed dismay at the propostion because "romans wearing fur in egypt" is not historical. Of course, that argument runs contrary to the homelands system entirely. Historical accuracy will be correct in the beginning of the game in EB, though it becomes inevitable that history will eventually be replaced by fiction in the process of the expanionist based campaign. In order to be "truly historcial", the player would be unable to play and instead only watch. Thus and in conclusion, the homelands system is the greatest source of historcial accuracy, depth of emersion, contribution towards roleplaying experience, and superior gameplay. Thus again, fur on legions raised in europe = yay.

Auxilia were a Roman invention. There may be something similar available for Carthage, but we'll see. Most factions will raise native units rather than "auxilia" in most cases.
