EB Preview :: Lusotannan

[Krusader]

Greetings Europa Barbarorum fans.

As some of you might know we announced a third faction some time back. And as some of you might have suspected, it's the Lusitanians or in EB, Lusotannan. Thus the Iberian faction will be focused entirely on the Lusotannan, one of the most known ancient Iberian tribes, if not most known, who made the Iberian peninsula an ill-favoured place to be for any Roman legionnaire during the Roman republic and early empire. This means the Lusotannan will only start with the Lusitania province in western Iberia and the former Celtiberian province will instead be a rebel allied one.
But you think we would announce a preview with only this as the announcement? No of course not. A lot of work has gone into the Lusotannan and you can see the new units below.
Enjoy!!

And of course, many many thanks to Aymar de Bois Mauri for the work on units and the faction itself. Teleklos Archelaou for his work on graphics. But our biggest thanks goes to Sarcasm who has done a tremendous effort on descriptions and research and without him, this faction wouldn't have been so far, and also to Anthony who helped with making a "Lusitanian language" based on Indo-European and it's relationship to the Celtic language variants in play in this region.
