Why are there no Gaesatae Mercenaries?

Northern Italy was (and is) less fertile but has more mineral ressources (not, however, much by way of precious metals--iron, however, they did have).

Hmm strange i was under the impression that the regions around the Po were the Italy's most fertile outside of Sicily... I learn something new everyday I guess...


So the Tindanotae having an officer makes them a better unit?

[Pharnakes]

Well, its one more man to fight, isn't it?

Does the world really need anymore rampaging bloodcrazed nudists

Funny you should say that when you posted something about the conditions that needed to apply to any non-specific mod of the Sims game in order to make you play it...

[Hooahguy]

are the sims games even moddable? AFAIK, the TW series are the only games that are modded.

[Tellos Athenaios]

At least the Sims 2 platform is. I know for certain that there was some in-built feature to donwload & install fan-made content...

Well they simply annoy me in EB and are often the thorn in my side, but in a game like the sims I'd gladly employ them to my hearts content

Probably not. He does have 100% lethality though, and I think extra hitpoint(s) so can make a significant difference until he dies.

Even though the Celtic nobles might have had golden torcs and what not, their warriors still sought fame and fortune. After all, many warriors were under Celtic lords because of debt-vassalage, well later on anyways. In such a society, the top few percent have most of the money, but most of the manpower comes from the bottom 50%.

So loot, fortune, and fame might indeed have been a critical motivating factor for the Gauls to join Hannibal's army.
