Why is the Hwacha on there?
Edit: Gallic Warrior all the way. I've yet to encounter any instance in which it's useful. Not one.
I added Hwacha, because, I remembered reading others commenting about it being of situational usage.
If one attacks a city containing mostly just Longbows, it's advantage over the normal catapult is greatly reduced (to none, if no melee are present).
@bei1052, try Boudica, marathon game speed, maps of medium or smaller.
Her Gallics can be built with copper, so, earlier than others.
They start with Combat1 and Geurilla1 ans the 3xp from the barracks.
Kill a few Barbs or animals and get to 10xp. For their CHA leaders that will 2 promotions and part way to the next. Choose woods2 for some, shock and G2 for some, City2 for some. Use it to grab enemy workers and easily remain in the field, due to almost nothing can hurt you, because, of great defenses.
Keep fighting and gaining GGs, The Great Wall can help to some extent, as you know you will be fighting alot. Switch to Vass+Theo as soon as you can.
It won't take long before you have woods3/G3/Com1+/shock units moving from city to city conquering.
Remember, Gallic Warriors are the only unit before Gunpowder, that can get both Woods and Guerilla promotions, so, they can become the early, gods of outdoor combat.
I included a .jpg of some cool Gallics eventually upgraded to macemen, but, most of the fighting occured before that. The best has 65xp. The 2nd .jpg shows the best as a Gallic, and just before conquering England, who built the Great Wall, so, his xp was earned the tough way. I checked, in this game, my friend got the swordsman quest, and the cover promo quest. So, he did have a boost. But, you get the idea of what one can have and do with Gallics, that you can't do with the others. Gallics and archers on hilled cities, don't lose their cities either.
