Interesting article, but nowadays it is believed that Viriato was not a shepherd but a landowner. In fact Viriato marries the daughter of a rich landowner something impossible if he was a simple shepherd who wanted revenge from Rome.

Se precisarem de ajuda com os lusitanos contêm comigo.
I'm a archaeology student, in Portugal so if you need help i dont mind helping.

In Porugal we also had the Order of Christ, the ex Templars, that in Portugal changed the name isntead of just being destroyed.

Yes there quite good, but i believe, that in the first level you could incorporate some more Viking like units since the first Russian were vikings, and the city of Novgorod was found by vikings, the rest of the units i think are extremely accurate. You have been doing an awesome research.
If you dont mind i would like to give a sugestion about a Faction that i believe is missing, the Bizantine Empire and maybe some muslim Factions.

Thats a big research you got there. I think this is a great ideia of putting Venice in a game, normally this great city is forgoten. A question is suebi a portuguese word?

Oh and i almost forgot! That "computer" is from Pergamum, it was part of the city loot during the Mitrydates War. It was found in a shipwreck at Antikithera and it was used to predict the time using the stars, it dates from the year of 86 a.C.

I am new here and i dont want to get a bad reputation, but i have to desagree. The last thing the romans are is "Non-inovative", because they developed everything from military strategy, the testudo formation, war engines, by constructing great ballistas, scorpions and even cariage ballistas, they invented concrete. They develop the naval fighting system.
And this is just a small part of the roman contribution.

First of all, thank you.
I am portuguese and its refreshing to see something about Viriato, written by a forener.
second and i dont meen this in a bad way but, Viriato and is men were mostly Lusitanian, Turdulos e Galaicos, wich are very diferent from Iberian, since iberian were the original people of the Iberian peninsula, and the Lusitanian were derived from the celtic migration in to the Peninsula.

I doubght it. Although possible the Lusotannan culture, due to the fact of the first child being the only one to inherit the parents land, encouraged the other sons to join in rather large warbands that would raid and pillage the teritories byond the Lusitania. Their objectives were land and wealth. This is possibly what happen to Viriato, a young man (but not the eldest son) that throug this pillaging phenom made its wealth.
