With FF wartats don't have to be fused to a special metal weapons promo chain; they're an independent promo granted with Dyes to whichever units we want to make eligible. So while the base swordsmen/spearmen are just eligible for the metal weapons tiers, the Bretonni versions can be unique in being able to have both Wartatoos and metal simultaneously, a significant but not overwhelming benefit. If you want, they could also be made to get wartats free without access to Dyes (ie ritual scarification or something.)
I think you're right either Mounted Warband or Horsemen Warband are better names for the base Ancient Cav unit; work better for a wider variety of civs. As far as Bretonni Spearmen Warband, again maybe a bit long for display purposes but I can't think of anything better ATM ?

I'm hesistant to make too many units that are simultaneously civ and religion specific (esp as the Old World is really pretty polytheistic), but those seem relatively flavorful so we could go with them. A lot of the temporary building effects (Magistrate etc) could be replaced by passive aura benefits (can even add/subtract nearby trade routes via aura promos). I think we could nudge down the national caps a bit further to 4 and 2.Any thoughts on post 15?
