so what "bartix" and what faction replaces armenia go then?!!

[eadingas]

Abokasix, you mean.

[Productivity]

I think this needs to go into the library once it's done here...

[khelvan]

bartix' militarix will consix of such units as the Asiartix Taxeis (light militia infantrix), Pantortix Phalargitix (succesorix levy infantrix), the Bartix Spears, and Indo-Greek Hoplix. Of course, the Bartiox Hypaspix are some I like the best. Just wait until you see our Kataphraix!

[Big_John]

Wat About Teh Xaxifaxiphrataxis? Yu Know! THE Whores With Most Armour????????????

[khelvan]

Sadly, we will not be featuring Xaxifaxiphrataxis in the bartix militarix. But you will get to see two versions of the Kataphraix!

[Big_John]

OOOK Kalvin! That News Is Phantaxtix!!!!!

[Temple]

I really like the idea of armoured whores! Will they be featured in EB?

[Meneldil]

He might be some kind of Asterix & Obelix (and all those french play on word gallic names with 'ix') fan. Though even in French, Bartix and Ranix dont mean anything.

[Ranika]

Khelvan has his degree in the linguistics of crazy pointless 'abbreviations', which may or may not actually abbreviate anything. He's my hero. This thread... It brings great joy. ...But needs more pointless smilies scattered throughout it.

[Steppe Merc]

Ah. So Bartix is short for the real spelling... which is? Can't you just tell us what you mean? We obviously don't know... and is Ranix really shorter than Ranika?
Sorry, we just don't understand you Abox.

[Ranika]

Bartix has been presumed to be 'Baktria', but he keeps putting an 'r' in front of the 't', so it's hard to say. Bartix may be some completely imagined faction (much like he imagined that Armenia was dropped).

[Temple]

My money's on Bactria. But Khelvan, couldn't you guys add some Bartix units to EB? Like an Easter Egg? If the Expansion opens up any faction slots, Bartix should definately be on top of the list..

Just where IS Bartix anyway..?

[Ranika]

If Bartix is Baktria, it's on the east edge of the Seleucid's land. If it's some egnimatic alien nation, we've determined Uranus. The expansion may include a Bartixian invasion, but I don't know what units they'd have.

[Ellesthyan]

Ranika, you're hilarious

That's a WICKED idea! Maybe EB could add a cheat code to get a big Bartixian Phalanx or something. Of course, they'd need to be aliens.

Wow, two points for Temple.

[Proper Gander]

seems that the folk of EB actually have some humour hidden under the mask of seriousness....
