Re: Arabs and Carthaginians
Just a couple of thoughts to add, because I really like what you have so far (good work, by the way):
If the Devs will allow it-and it'd probably require some sort of coding in: a bonus to EA "Carthage" to recruiting mercenaries, since they and the Phoenicians did that a *lot*. Say every gold EA nation spends translates to 2 gold from everybody else. It makes them both different and very powerful, in a new direction.
Secondly, what if in MA-to go along with the death scale-the sacred child calvalry all had a "twice-born" type ability, that only functions under a Death scale? So that, if you kill them, they come back, preferrably more powerful the stronger the Death scale-this would probably also require some coding, but the coding ideas wouldn't have to be incorporated into the mod until/unless they become doable. And, I'd give them crossbows, personally, since the idea of a sacred child-calvalry reminds me of parts of Stephen King's Gunslinger saga.
LA seems really interesting, powerful, and complete.
