Seeing topics on the lorica segmentata, and the fact that it is not included because it is out of EBs timeframe, makes me wonder: why are the imperial reforms included in EB? The reason I'm asking is because it represents only a small part of the timeframe depicted, right at the end, and many campaigns are over and done well before the conditions can be reached. To me it seems like it would be better to shorten the period shown in EB to an enddate before the emperors; at the least, this would open up room for a few other (regional) units elsewhere, away from the (in my opinion) overrepresented Romans.

Is this an approach the EB would ever consider, or has considered? I love the Imperial units but must wonder if the unitslots could be better used elsewhere, considering the mod goals of a more balanced representation of Europe in that time.
