I've been playing a Sauromatae campaign and I can't help wondering why there is such a demarcation between 'nomadism' and 'pastoralism'. I assumed that the former is supposed to refer to the lifeways of the steppe peoples, and the latter to sedentary peoples, but I'm not sure if this makes sense. The Sauromatae (and similar peoples) were in fact pastoralists, and actually lived as nomads due to the need to rotate their large amounts of livestock through different pastures. The two terms are not by any means mutually exclusive, which they seem to be in the mod. Have I misunderstood something, or did EB really mean to have something like 'agrarianism' rather than 'pastoralism'? In any case EB is extremely accurate and enjoyable, and I was just wondering about this minor issue.
