    Default Military commands in Latin.

    As a student of Latin I am very elated to hear the new commands in Latin and hope to hear more in the other languages as the mod develops. Due to my interest I am wondering if someone could post the text to all the new commands. The only one I have been able to hear clearly is Est perfectio.

    Wow I never new they'd changed the language of these things. I've played with speech turned off since vanilla. I used to get embarrassed by the agents saying "yes master" in that sycophantic way. Or the general saying "Yes Sir" every time I clicked on him. Think I'll have to give it go with speech on tonight.

    Sorry abou, can't help you out with your question.

    We've done Latin and Gallic so far I think, still need voice actors though.

    I have also had voice turned off since vanilla... It gets annoying when everytime you click your fleet, for example, you get EYE CAPTAIN in a pirate wannabe voice or when you're deploying your troops and everytime you click one you hear HASTATI! PRINCIPES! SLINGERS! HOPLITES! Then when you tell them to move or attack... YES SIR! ATTAAAAAAAAACK! CHAAAAAARGE! YES SIR! YES SIR! and oh, my, god... That moron at the end of the battle with the American accent, or when your ladders hit the walls, or when the enemy general routs... YOUR VICTORY IS COMPLETE! THE DAY IS OURSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

    No... I shall never play with voices turned on. Never.

    NEVER!

    Gaelic languages (Irish, Scottish, and Manx) are insufficient for Gallic (they're thinly related, as they belong to two seperate lingual families in the Celtic lingual super-family). Our Gallic is composed of what we know for sure and theoretical stuff based on various attempts at reconstruction of the language. That is to say, it's an attempt at a Gallic language; at least something akin to what it would've sounded like, though it's no doubt still quite a bit removed from actual Gallic.

    Maybe this has been fixed, will be fixed, or I did something wrong when installing, but none of my actual Roman units (Hastati, Princeps, Triari, etc.) use Latin commands. Only regional troops do.

    Ahhh ok...i knew Gallic was different thats why i was amazed...and since the closest thing to gallic nowadays would be irish or scottish, that was the only thing making sense since there was no celtic writing (besides lepontic as far as i know)

    There are a sizeable number of Celtic inscriptions from all sorts of celtic languages.

    Are these already in, or did I miss something?

    Sounds unbelievable.
