Getting attached to units.

[The Celtic Viking]

Of course I get attached to units! Since I started with EB, I always have. In my Sweboz campaign I have a unit of Skandza-Swaiut that has saved my general more than once, and given a very good account of themselves. As they're not easily retrained, that just further increases their value for me on the battlefield and I would not risk them unless I had to. Damn fine lads they are.

In my Arverni campaign I instead have a unit of well experienced Botroas that I just won't let die. They were the first (melee) unit of mine to get a silver chevron, and were usually the ones to first enter a settlement in a siege before I got access to gaesatae. Currently they're down in Iberia fighting the Lusotannan and Carthage (who has sent several 3/4-full stack naval invasions against me, btw) and honestly, I've become too scared to lose them to use them (on my own initiative) much. I usually put them in the second row to flank or take over when the enemy tires down.

I also have an equally experienced unit of gaeroas in the same army. That one is usually guarding my right flank, doing a darn good job at it too. More than one enemy general has fallen to their spears - they even killed the roman leader before I took Rome and made the Romani my protectorate.

Other than that I can get a real love for my generals. It's a very sad day for me when they die.
