8 years ago At least Thracians won't need their own units. The Peltasts were actually Thracian units adopted by the Greeks slightly before Alexander. Similarily the Thracians had mostly adopted Greek troops. For Illyrians and Dacians there's little information about the troops they used, so going with Peltasts for them as well is probably the best option. In addition to the Peltast you could add Falx swordsmen to at least Dacians. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falx

While not a major priority for this release, troops should be added for other cultures and nations, such as Roman Kingdom, Republic and early Empire troops. Troops for Celts, Iberians, Illyrians, Dacians, Thracians (in each case separate, as much as possible). Troops for Carthage, Egypt, and the other nations in that region (at least three separate groups). Troops for Chinese states, which should be of more than one group (I.e. There would be separate troops for Tibetans, and for both North and South China). Troops for India, which would again be of different types. The cultural gap between Dravidians and Aryans should be simulated in their units, with perhaps a third group for nations around the Bengal. As the map is extended, troops for various native American nations will need to be made. Finally, Japan should have at least separate troops for Wajin and Ainu. As I said, these won't need to be made for a while, but I think we should at least plan, get some ideas together and maybe create some of them.
