[The Celtic Viking]

Just two quick things for now:

1) "37. Sotaroas: -5 base men, -70 cost Too much Celtic archer spam, really ahistorical"

I really wonder about this, because I have never seen any Celtic archer spam. The reason why Celts bring more archers than is historical is the same reason why all western factions bring too many archers in general. In RTW, archers simply don't work the same way as they did historically. Nerfing them specifically for the Celts and Germanics for that reason is just unfair.

Oh! I almost forgot. Why wouldn't you make them (and the Germanic archers) into spearmen-with-bows like you did with eastern archer-spearmen?

2) "151. Cohortes Evocata: +1 shield Roman scutum covers more of the body than a theuros. Also units have relatively
low defense skill values for sword units. I think the +1 shield is appropriate."

The Cohortes Evocata are already OP as they are, giving them a free +1 shield defence is absolutely unthinkable. As for their "low defence skill", they've got more than Neitos and the same as Arjos...
