We have great progress on the civ, but among the remaining art tasks, we need heroes above all else. Both actors and portraits.
German heroes:
Boiorix
Cimbri leader
local attack range aura and global damage boost
inspired by battle of arausio.
should be a cavalry unit imo.
Lugius
cimbri leader
loot bonus
reduces enemy vision range
inspired by raids on roman territory and the romans' fear of the unpredictable german forces.
should be cavalry, but can be made an infantry unit for balancing reasons.
Teutobod of the teutons
Should be an infantry unit
500 extra HP like agis from the spartans
provides a large speed boost to melee infantry inspired by large groups of charging infantry reportedly taking place at battles with the romans.
Of these, sources only describe teutobod. Apparently, he was foreboding and athletic figure. Other than that, as far as I'm aware, basically nothing is known about these historical figures. I think creative liberties are fine here, like the use of some captured roman armor.
