[PREVIEW] 2.2

[Iaius Statius Laurentius]

Beautiful! I knew it was a smart idea to wait for 2.2 before getting back into EBII. It looks like there's a heck of a lot to look forward to.

Speaking of unit voices -- any chance the lack of voice for the KH general bodyguard has been fixed?

Regarding the conscripted phalanxes/hoplites. Will their morale be weaker? I recall that the Parthians' attempt at using seleukid troops to fight their wars ended up poorly for them for exactly that reason.

No, they're regular versions of the same units you can hire as mercs. We'd need another unit slot if they were to be a weaker version of the same thing, and this was a practise widely used with Makedonians changing sides from one Hellenistic power to another.

Fantastic preview!

[James the Red]

Awesome.

Also, 'Carthaginian Citizen Infantry'. Hmm, haven't heard of this new unit until now I think. Whats it like, a hoplite unit like the Liby-Phoenicians and the Carthaginian militia?

- Added a "Carthage Liberates Canaan" easter egg.

Wouldn't that be...

An eastern egg?

[Roma_Victrix]

I'll be satisfied with this release so long as there are no BERSERKERS!!!!

I think they are two times in the list one as infantry and one as militia!

[bordinis]

There is no berzerkers in this release and will not be at all i think. Maybe lack of evidence, historians know better.

[Rafkos]

There's one more easter egg in the mod... a big one. But hopefuly noone will find it :x

Oh no...what have you done? Added LOTR Mumakil or something? Perhaps some late medieval gunners with mounted French knights? Perhaps the outer-space aliens from Independence Day?

[Rafkos]

I won't tell, it's nearly impossible to find. Anyway, no one in the team knows where it is or what it is.

In the release thread of 2.1 I pointed out a heap of units where already existing voice files had not been assigned to (http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...1#post14809197).
So I guess they have added this to the new version.
