(NEW PIC) Unite the Tribes! ..or maybe military reforms.. something

[Spartacus041]

Check facebook..

In ROME II, every choice has a consequence, however great or small. Certain acts or events are accompanied with a description, and an artistic rendition of the scene. Here we've brought together four artworks from the game, depicting the same event for the Barbarian, Roman, Greek and Eastern cultures. Can you guess the nature of that event?

What's on Facebook, Spartacus?
I don't go on Facebook on this PC.

Thank you, Spartacus

[Spartacus041]

I just updated the OP with what CA wrote on their facebook update.

[Sharpe]

YES. This could be a great feature.

[DogSoldierSPQR]

If it's the same event and shows the Romans and Greeks too...this could be interesting. I thought the Greeks could not unite into a league and also who would the Romans go with? Etruscans?

Could be very interesting, indeed

The one in the upper right was on the military research panel. IIRC it was the supply reforms or something.

Otherwise I would have guessed for a declaration of war or the recruitement of troops.

[Lockcaps]

This is , with 99% certainty, artwork for the military reforms. I guess this means that all factions will have reforms similar to the romans.

Could it be military reform?

[Spartacus041]

Actually I might be wrong... it might be an event tied to eliminating your rivals and becoming king?

My guesses-

Top left- The Gauls finally find volunteers for their new Submarine Core.
Top right- 'Soldiers, Some say artists are lazy and re-use the same backgrounds for their work. Ridiculous!'
Bottom left- 'Soldiers, Some say artists are lazy and re-use the same backgrounds for their work. Ridiculous!'
Bottom right- The Parthian leader surprises and inspires his troops by showing off his new codpiece.

Left handed hoplites? When will artists learn not to horizontally flip images of people?

Yep, something very... sinister... going on there.

Oh god I made a pun from Latin etymology. I gotta get off this site.

Got to say, The Greeks look very cool in that picture.

As to what it might signify, im going to go with Reforms of some sort.

[Jokern]

Either a declaration of war or the creation of a new army.

[Ringir]

Definitly military reform, the roman picture was shown in the tutorial already.

[Toho]

its the new army or recruitment panel. I saw it on the prologue preview.

[Sharpe]

Bottom right- The Parthian leader surprises and inspires his troops by showing off his new codpiece.

Word up.

[GuyD]

Corinthian helmets. There, I said it.

[GussieFinkNottle]

These pics are weirdly inaccurate:
-Kilts on the barbs, including one with trousers underneath
-Greek troops hundreds of years out of date (Peloponnesian war) with Corinthian helmets, yet also wearing iron instead of Bronze.
-Trajanic legionaries
-Cataphracts as infantry

I suppose this must be to get a feel for the faction groups, because none of the units displayed have been this wildly wrong. I still have faith in CA
