What about the alien abductions, man? And the probes, man, the probes!
I accuse the EB team of hiding evidence about extraterrestrial activity in the Hellenistic period!
I know, right?!!?
But, what if the EB team isn't just hiding evidence but is using EB to distract us from the probing that's still on-going?!!?
What if the EB team *is* the aliens?
Seriously though, where's the Vimanas? Why don't EB have no Vimanas?

We should able to recruit Social Justice Warriors. Generals become 'Triggered': -90% campaign map movement; Verbosity (long and boring pre-battle speeches); blue dyed hair.
We demand testudos with mirrored shields so as to repel the alien thought rays!

Ships should have an upgrade for ablative armor for their hulls because someone's gonna demand sharks with laser beams in their eyes.

Oh, don't you worry about that, Rad, the EB II team's graphic artists are already hard at work on that unit, after being swayed by some conceptual art found online:
When player controlled Carthage losses all overseas provinces a new event should fire with the name "Make Carthage Great Again" a new full stack army is spawned led by a charismatic general. The general becomes the new faction leader and control is handed over to the AI. Since the AI is dumb and cannot properly defend itself, it decides to build a YOOOGE sea wall cutting access to North Africa.
The Parthian faction pays for the wall and the game ends with the following message: Carthage is great again, has many troops, the best troops, and wins lots of money, also wins so much that is already bored with winning believe me, its the best and the wall is so tall, really beautiful, trust me, I cannot describe how beautiful the wall is, and I know words, many words, trust me I got the best words. Trust me!

Trolls.
Trolls have devolved into nothing more than annoyances on the internet, but back in the age of the mod, trolls were fearsome critters.
Troll unit should have the power to cause enemy forces to rage quit and leave the battlefield.

Were-elephants.
The unit looks like a light cav unit until it nears enemy. Then, all the sudden!!! it transforms into were-elephants!
And, instead of having archers on their backs, they have an open topped water tank. In that water tank, is a shark, with laser beam eyes!!

You're right...no one has ever expected that ever. :tongue:
Every time a Hellenistic faction wins on the battle map or campaign map, this should be the victory song that play instead of the generic EB II one:
CALL TO ARMS, BANNERS FLY IN THE WIND!
FOR THE GLORY OF HELLAS!
COAT OF ARMS READING FREEDOM OR DEATH,
BLOOD OF KING LEONIDAS!
