Default New Nations in Upcoming Patches?

So, How many new nations are we getting in upcoming patches? There's 15 empty site slots for extra national sites and so on in the site list before the actual random sites begin. There are also a couple of very interesting sites that say "Enables recruitment of Tuatha" and "Enables recruitment of Tuatha Warrior" or things to that effect, which makes me think we're going to see them making a comeback.

I'd really like to see that, because the Tuatha Man theme in Dom2 was rather unattractive compared to some other nations.

I think tuatha´s are a given for the next patch. This patch already added in ~10 units which lack a description, but all fit with the tuatha theme.

Yes, we have been promised tuatha in the form of tir na nog, EA man, within a patch.

As much fun as new nations are, i'd personaly prefer bug patches first.

I definitely agree... there's some broken map edit and mod commands making it difficult for us map creators and mod creators to provide new unique content for the community.

I agree that the bug fixing patches are more important but if adding new nations ect keeps the devs interested and working hard im all for it.

The modders nation list numbers the nation slots. Lanka caught us off guard but already the list had
era 1 Tir na n'Og
era 1 Fomoria
era 1,2,3 Gath

I dont think this really gets in the way of bug patches. Kristoffer tends to do the mythological fill of the game, and Johan does the programming. Theres no reason for Kristoffer to sit idle while patches are being worked on.
