    These games are much funnier when you aren't an EB member tough.
    It's not fun if you can't guess.

    They aren't Galatian, but we will have a Galatian unit based on the same model.

    Like many of the others have said, definitely Celtic elite/noble unit with more of a continental feel, I think. I would hope that they would be part of the Aedui faction, (personal favorite), but, since the Celts were well known as mercenaries, I could see these guys hiring themselves out to the highest bidder.

    All that aside, my gut feeling after seeing the unit was that it is an elite unit of the Nervii, but Gertgregoor said no Belgae...

    So, just a guess... elite infantry of the Aquitani?

    I am going to hope they are Visigoths. They are
    of the period //not celtic by ethnicity, but certainly
    christian...

    For 90% of EB's timeline there was no Christianity, mate.

    90%? 100%; Christianity didn't exist by 14 AD. Jesus would still be a teenager, and was still being educated.
