Do you want more Tribes?

EDIT: did a google image search but couldn't find one, sorry. It just has two protusions infront and behind your legs. You can't brace for a lance charge with one but gives you something to grip as you fight. Its a bit cheeky of me to say the Romans got them of us as we got them from the Scythians ;)

Hello Tathlum,

Thank you for your help on the saddle, I will check in some books I have ...
For the tribes , I have :
For Brittany : ICENI,TRINOVANTES,CATUVELLAUNI,ATREBATES,CANTIACI,DUROTRIGES
For Ireland : well ... No Tribes .. Could you help me ?
I'm thinking to add a civ with Picts in Scotland ...
:thanx:

EDIT : I think I have found a pic for the saddle :

Do you need any more techs than the ones specified?

For the moment, I need "vine working" which is a tech that allows the resource Wine and "Olive tree working" which a tech that allows Olive Oil ...
The vine and the Olive tree must be especially prepared in order to give good fruits ... :thanx: if you can help ...
 
In Ireland the situation was a little more settled, though no less warlike than most of the Celtic world. The country split into 5 "Cuiga", the five provinces of Ulaid, Mumhan, Connachta, Laighin and Mead, made up of Tribal confederations. Although Tribes came, went, split, united, died out etc the Cuiga stayed relatively stable, keeping the same capitals etc for centuries. So for Ireland you could use on of the Cuiga (Ulaid, Mumhan, Connachta, Mead, Laighan) or an actual Tribe (Del Cais, Desi, Dal Riodha, Oriel, Connachta) or one of the Ledgendary 7 tribes from the book of conquests (Tuath de Dana, Fir Bolg, Sons of Miled etc..)

Either real Tribes or the Cuiga are the best choices. Just let me know what you want and how many you want and I'll make more detailed suggestions..

I think you're best off having most of the Tribes in Gaul(6-7?), rather than Briton(@3-4?) and Ireland(@2?), just thinking of map area. If you're looking for more Tribes, there's always the Balkans, northern Italy and Northern Spain. Gaul was really the Celtic heartland.
 

Thank you Tathlum ... I will take your advice for 2 civs in Ireland... At the moment I reread the Gaul war written by Cesar in order to determine the most important tribes in Gaul..
Have you seen the pic for the saddle ? I think it's what you were speaking about ?
 
Frenchie, I just got back from Barnes and Noble. I bought an Irish history book. A good tech would be tain, when Celtics stole eachother's cattle. This practice still continues in Ireland, :D and it would be a good tech. It would be good in 3-D, so can you make it? I cannot make 3-D graphics.

Frenchie, is this good for a vine-working tech?
I would like something more "farming", but the picture is great and I will use it like model to create a 3D picture because the arrangement is great ...
:thanx:

EDIT : I have found pictures for newgrange I will try to make a wonder ...
 
Here is a preview of new techs :Mosaic creation , Olive tree working and grindstone for Olives
I will post these techs in my library by three..


EDIT : Techs posted in my library

With Olive tree working and Grindstone for Olives you allows the luxuary resource Olive Oil

This is just a pet hate of mine but I feel I must voice when evr possible.

The celts where not and have never been a Civilization. It is a popular miss conception that the Celts spanned a great part of europe in small pockets this is not entirely true. Celt is term that the romans gave to tribe who followed in the religious beliefs of the druids but still kept there trible identities. The Druids served as advocates of the gods and atracted many tribes to there calling including the tribe of England, France, Germany, Wales, Scotland, Ireland and the netherlands.

So as you may well guess I was quite annoyed when Firaxis did a Celtic Civ, But you can't trust Americans to get anything right when it comes to History. :mad:
