    Default Roman slingers

    I was wondering if we might will see roman slingers in the next update that includes new units.

    We know the romans used slings but this was likely a weapon used in addition to the pila rather than instead of, correct? Is that why the romans don't have a slinger unit now, or is it because it simply hasn't been implemented yet?

    So how about this for an idea instead of a factional roman slinger unit, can there be a regional italic slinger unit (and thus available to Romans, rebels, Carthaginians in Italy, etc) instead? Because I don't think it was just the Romans and Greeks on italy that had slingers. Plus if you are Rome and currently owning north africa, it makes little sense to train roman slingers when african slingers are available right there.

    There's no placeholder for Accensi or some Italic slinger unit in the EDU presently.
