    There should be regiments of soldiers from House Stark and House Lannister from Game of Thrones. There should also be LOTR Elves who ride giant elks.

    Upon capturing Judaea as the Romans, a quick pop-up message of "Romanes eunt domus" wouldn't go amiss.

    Along with an extensive new soundtrack composed entirely by Meat Loaf and Bon Jovi.

    Every time the Romans destroy a faction, a video scroll should pop up on the campaign map with that speech from Loki in The Avengers:

    "Is not this simpler? Is this not your natural state? It's the unspoken truth of humanity, that you crave subjugation. The bright lure of freedom diminishes your life's joy in a mad scramble for power, for identity. You were made to be ruled. In the end, you will always kneel. "

    War Dogs existed in the original RTW as well as in RTW2.

    Why can't we mount those dogs with 'little people'?

    Large dogs with dwarfs on their backs flinging arrows like javelins as they ride around harassing the enemy!

    @Roma Victrix:

    You know, Meat Loaf is probably an RTW, and thereby an EB(2) fan.

    If asked, he might motivate himself up to doing an awesome rock opera album for EB2.

    I just realised that Hugo Weaving appears in LotR, Matrix and Captain America.
    Coincidence? I think not!

    He should therefore star in EB2...perhaps as leader of the New Guys, riding a Bartix mount in battle!

    Coming back to the older incarnations of the series from the newer, I find myself missing key quality of life features. One of these losses is felt more strongly than any other:

    I speak, of course, of first person artillery.

    The experience of ancient generalship is just ruined without the ability to fling deadly bolts at the enemy at startling rates from one's very own Polybolos with 1:1 aiming response. Naturally, headshots would deal extra morale damage to all nearby units - wouldn't you be upset if the Polemarchos took a spear through the noggin forty yards out from actually engaging the enemy line?

    To think that this isn't in EB II already!

    Of course, you could always mod the descr_sounds_music file, add mp3 files to the music folder, and delete and regenerate the events.dat and music.dat files to add as much Meat Loaf as you desire.

    All kidding aside, I've already modded the music a bit to add stuff like this:

    https://soundcloud.com/xraydog/bigfoot

    And of course stuff like this:

    Speaking of music, every time you besiege a city in Egypt, songs from the death metal band Nile should play in the background.



    Impure am I
    Impure I spill my seed
    Upon barren earth
    And spit in the face of the Goddess

    Unclean am I
    Unclean I copulate
    With the hands of the God
    And defile the gates of Ishtar

    Unblessed am I
    Unrepentant
    Defiant

    Buh Luh Uh
    Si il Inanna
    As Gi Su Ak
    Gis Tes
    Gis Tes

    Unwashed am I
    Unwashed I lay violent hands
    Upon the Altar of the Goddess

    In filth I lay
    In filth I desecrate
    And profane the Temple of Ishtar
    And blaspheme in the presence of whores

    Baad Angarru
    Ninnghizzhidda

    Open the gate that I may enter
    Open
    Lest I attack the gate
    Open
    Lest I break down the walls

    Open the gate
    Lest I 'cause the dead to outnumber the living
    Open the gate
    Lest I 'cause the dead to rise and devour the living

    This actually isn't horrible at all. In fact, it's great.

    System of a Down should compose the music for the Armenian faction, through and through.

    This is a great idea, thus it should not be in this thread !
