    • https://www.researchgate.net/publication/347859019_Cimbri_and_Teutoni this article proposes an interesting etymology for the name of those tribes. I'm not sure it's really a composite word (Sometimes the source mention just Cimbri or just Teutones); but the kumƀrii̯a etymology might be plausible
    • Golf has traditionally been associated with outdoor courses, but technology has created a new way to enjoy the game. Indoor golf simulators allow players to practice their swings, play virtual courses, and enjoy golf in a comfortable indoor environment. If you are searching for an indoor golf simulator near me, there are several things worth considering before choosing a venue. Look for the quality of the simulator technology, available playing options, location, pricing, and whether the facility is suitable for beginners as well as experienced golfers.   For more information about indoor golf experiences, visit Teetimeindoorgolf. 
    • How you want. I wouldn't mind many PRs if they're small and managable. Feel free to ping me in the PR(s) on Gitea.   This is essentially what I meant to say with "their role was unclear", which admittedly was not the best choice of words, though. If I remember correctly, there even is a record where it kinda sounds like they were fighting as cavalry.   There has always been debate on whether the SpecificNames ("native" names) always need to be a direct translation of GenericNames (English names). My personal take is that they don't have to, I wouldn't mind (and actually prefer) "Prodromos (Cavalry Javelineer)". The word-by-word translation (like Hippakontistēs here) can be in many cases straightforward, but a bit boring. If there is a more historically interesting and relevant term unique to that civ, I'd use that instead, even if describes a broader group of people/soldiers. Again, a unit can represent more than just the soldiers equipped in the exact same way. One idea floating around is to in addition to the SpecificName and GenericName introduce a "ClassName". Then we could use "Prodromos" as the SpecificName, "Scout" as the GenericName and keep "Cavalry Javelineer" as the ClassName. This would be cool to have for other units too.   I'm aware. My point was that the generality isn't a bad thing.
    • Thanks the bots for the up. I missed that. Who won this priceless prize in the end?
    • @guerringuerrin thanks! Although this part was easy, Part III has been another matter summarising around 18 pages of notes... Although I'm not coding anything, it's meant to historically improve vanilla and inspire other mods with whatever is too much
