    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.

    No, they not in yet, most of them have been recorded though.
