The arthurian thing is interesting, definately.

Fantastic preview btw, those Roxolani nobles are one of the best EB units yet, congratulations to whoever modelled/textured them

EDIT: Dago, are you ossetian? that would be pretty cool

A very thorough and expansive preview containing a lot of interesting information. The units also look good and very well suited to steppe warfare.

No i am from Poland, but there is a hypothesis that slavs descend from sarmatians.

congrats on another succesfull countdown Wiz!

Fantastic preview, ive never bothered with the sarmatians in either vanilla or rtr as yet, looks like they`ll be the first faction i try when EB comes out(how much longer................)

**Abokasee** · 07-25-2005, 12:34

all this cavalry and (breif) history is very good but thats bit of a short unit selection and there all cavalry units!!!!

**Moros** · 07-25-2005, 12:37

yeah great units, I'd loved to see some infantry though :(

**Geoffrey S** · 07-25-2005, 13:12

Then you'd better get busy conquering neighbouring regions!

**The Wizard** · 07-25-2005, 14:07

Obviously, a steppe people like the Sauromatae would not have relied on much infantry. This is a very cavalry-heavy faction, and will be a grand treat to anybody who loves the flowing tactics of a steppe army.
