    Amazing work as always,team of EB! I earnestly look forward to playing as the Nabataeans. Game-play in Arabia will be 100% better,not that it would be horrible at the start.

    This is my first gaze upon the upcoming EB II faction and i could only say: "Awesome". For the first time there's someone who are willing to contribute a huge amount of information about Ancient Arabia civilization, anyway i hope EB II could release sooner.

    Good luck, EB II team.

    The lion was a popular symbol and can be seen depicted in many forms of Nabataean art, for example there are two rather large lions facing eachother carved out in the rocks at Petra. It was a symbol of power and some people claim it was also connected to the royal house. Not to sure about the last part though. Other possibilities were either to abstract or generic, or only applicable for a certain period.

    Weren't lions or at least mountain/cave "lions" (similar to American pumas) fairly common in the ancient world (EB area; not Britain and sorts though)?

    Any knowledge on lions or large "wildcats" in ancient times / or the EB area is welcome...

    They were. They are featured in the bible for a reason.

    Lions were common in today's European Turkey, during our timeframe.

    Apropos "video" - isn't here an Arabia-preview-video somewhere? If not, I'd settle for an initial release...

    PS: Great preview!
