Ultimate Aurelian

Nice. What is the emblem?

There is a thread for reworking Briton roster; it adds Irish champion skirmisher, and makes double swordsman a champion swordsman with shield.

Maybe it could heal units garrisoned inside it? Like CC but much faster heal rate.

I looked up the Iberian scale armors, only source seems to be this vase (Which may be quilted armor). Thread on EB forum regarding the topic: https://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?797309-Iberian-Linen-armor Quote in the thread, from a historian:

Maybe Ptolemy III ''The Benefactor''? He nearly conquered the Seleucid empire during the Third Syrian War. He also strengthened his ties with the Egyptian priesthood, and built multiple temples (The Edfu temple started being built during his reign).

Indeed it would be good to have two handed swordsman for India (Specially since Briton Longswordsman will be removed); should it replace the current champion maceman/swordsman? Thread with general Mauryan sword references: Some references of later two handed Indian swords: Perhaps a bigger variant of the current Mauryan sword with a falx-like grip?

They already have Romphaia mercenary. They could also have Galatian Swordsman and/or the non-Romanized Thorakites (Already used by macedonians).

The ''mace chariot'' seems like a wheeled ram. Although it may also be fictional since it says it had no driver. I read that the Chinese used unmanned crossbow chariots once but i could not find a reliable source. Edit:I think it's made up, i looked for and could only find a clickbaity article. http://eskify.com/10-unbelievable-ancient-weapons/ It cites a ''rebellion against Yang Shuan in 180 a.d'' but i can't find any other source on this event.

Bow catapult is sketchy, and Mangonels are probably not accurate for Mauryans (I read that the first to spread them outside of China were Avars around the 6th century A.D). I think the Asphatima was not a Onager since it was mobile, maybe it was a type of small Ballista that shot stones or arrows? Jāmadagnya was stationary could be a bigger ballista used on walls, or some type of Springal? I am not sure how it worked, a kind of battering ram? a mallet used by sappers?

And it is not like those civs only fought each other. Gauls fought with Romans and Greeks, it would be unauthentic to balance them with only Britons and Iberians mind.

During the Peloponesian war Iberian mercenaries were recruited from Sicily by Alcibiades. I think it would be interesting to have them in game, but Thracians were indeed more common.

My take on that: Rams will get nerfed so swordsman will be less essential.

Some ideas: Fairness (Aura that boost villagers) Recalling the exiles (Citizen soldiers train faster) Maybe a bonus that makes your units immune to bribes (Because he stopped a conspiracy in the army)

On Zapotec siege, i think it would be more accurate to lose their wheeled ram (They did not use wheels). Instead have a group of guys holding a log like Xiongnu ram. So siege workshop could be a relatively simple structure with some tree trunks lying around.

I agree. I think it would be better to balance them around other civs from the americas. Rather than to Rome or Persia. Both are related to celebrating military victories so you could make the unique building train heroes. If yo use the observatory one you could also give it a big LOS, and maybe a unique tech.

Does not Hyrule Conquest have a similar feature ?

Inca one is the smallest, maybe give it a well with some props like the greek one ? For Pueblo wonder you could use Casa Grande: Or maybe a section of Mesa Verde.

Maybe make the CC a bit bigger ? i think it is smaller than the barracks.

Maybe use a Kiva ? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiva https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salmon_Ruins

Which culture are those buildings ? Pueblo ?

I find it interesting that while mostly concentrated on the north; there are also Carib speakers in central Brazil: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuikuro. Is the language of the Marajoara culture known ?

Norse wonder could be Uppsala or a burial mound. Also all Workshops and ranges use vanilla placeholders; Frankish stable and palace too. Ummayads lack heroes.

Machimoi are pikemen i think.

Yes the clothing and most weaponry is similar to other artworks. My only doubt is the small hand axes (One is made of stone, the other is a shortened polearm), maybe the axeman unit should use a two handed dagger axe. It's fine to use multiple sources for reference, as long as they are from Yayoi period. I think golden shield boss should be for champion.

They seem to have rank tags (_a and _b), does this mean the Jaguar upgrades to Eagle ? If so that's a interesting idea, more accurate than making them separate units with vastly different stats (Like in AOE).
