I am quite worried about the Province system, this seems to be a bit too general.

Remember all of the provinces right now are just an artists representation.

Yeah, but still. Those could be pretty meaningless phrases.

Damn it. Camulodunon isn't in Suffolk. Neither did the Iceni hold anywhere near that much land. Poor old Trinovantes.

Also, does that say Iska? In Somerset? Any ideas what that's based on? The nearest thing I can thing of is the Roman fort in South Wales.

My question is maybe stupid but on a lot of screen, we see a curious black liquid on shield... What is that ?

**Aanker** · February 02, 2013, 05:24 AM

Dried blood or mud streaks, I think.

blood thats painted black to avoid a pegi 16 rating. Theres gonna be a blood pack dlc which turns the black liquid to red.

Has this been confirmed yet?

I dont think it has been confirmed explicitly, but black liquid on shields doesnt really make much sense so blood dlc would be a reasonable explanation.
They had blood dlc for shogun II also if im not mistaken?

Yes, but there was no such hint at it in the previews. I think, it makes sense, too, I'm just waiting for a confirmation.

Iska = Exeter

They appear to have slightly mis-placed it on the artist's impression though...

Exactly my thought, i think it's censored blood.

**Celtoi** · February 05, 2013, 07:26 PM

It's alien blood !
Even in those days there were flying saucers (......thrown@GreekParties

The Circus Maximus and the Colosseum should be unique, other towns within the Roman empire should only have relatively large hippodromes and amphitheartres.

Actually, Iska = Moridunum

They are in the same place on both the Wikipedia and the faction reveal maps. Coincidentally, the regional capitol of Wales on the faction reveal page is called Moridunon, which is also known as Moridunum.
