Toletum

[Revan Shan]

Will you make a scene for the city of Toletum (Toledo nowadays). It was a very important Iber city.

 

[ealabor]

Yeah it's already in as a village

 

[Revan Shan]

lol, as a Village? It was the most important or one of the most important settlements in the Peninsula

 

[Almalexia]

Well sucks for you then.

Indeed, Carthage famously considered Toledo more important than Carthago Nova. /sarcasm 
Seriosuly, Revan, hyperbole much?  THE most important settlement in Iberia?  Emporion mattered more to the Roman allied Massilliotes, Sagentum arguably mattered more to both Carthage and Rome since that was the trigger for war, and Carthago Nova was the Carth capital in Iberia.  That's just off the top of my very ignorant head.  Your fetish for the obscure is vaguely tolerable in the Star Wars mod because that's all fiction and thus not even your expanded universe strangeness can be dismissed as unrealistic.  This is a mod about history.  Your pet village was a village compared with cities in the eastern med.  Deal with the reality.

He never said it was THE most, he said it was one of the most

He never said it was THE most,

Really?  Still want to stand by that claim Ambalon?

Yes

Do you know what the word never means? Or the word or, for that matter?  Forget it, your failure of reading comprehension wasn't the point.  The point was Revan's failure of scale comprehension.  Compared to the size and population of greek cities in the eastern med that are repesented as villages, even a first tier Iberian city like Carthago Nova wasn't all that big, and Toledo was not on that same tier.

Yes I do know(I just failed at saying what I thought). YOUR reading comprehension failed there, not mine. Anyway, wasn't Carthago Nova one of the biggest cities in Iberia?

Now now girls, don't get your panties in a bunch, it's not that big a deal.

 

[ealabor]

Eh, theres plenty of Greek cities which have not made it in mod period, that are far more noteworthy than Toletum.

Yes, but we're talking about cities in Iberia...

 

[SUCOB]

there were greek and fenician colonies in iberia

 

[Ambalon]

there were greek and fenician colonies in iberia

by saying greek cities you imply that you're talking about greece main land, not some scattered villages/colonies in enemy territory

 

[SwissHalberdier]

Since everything on this forum apparently has to be an argument, I motion that the name of the mod be changed from ἡγεμονία to ἀνταγωνίζεσθαι.

 

[Ambalon]

I wont bother to open google translate...

 

[SwissHalberdier]

ἡγεμονία - hegemonia - "hegemony"
ἀνταγωνίζεσθαι - antagōnizesthai - "to antagonize"

 

[Ambalon]

I stand educated.

Yeah I don't think you are getting the example. I placed Toletum, so I should know where it is for one thing

Thebes and Delphi are not in the mod, two significant cities for the period. They are far more noteworthy than Toletum, yet they did not make it in not even as village representation, so you should be happy that Toletum made it at all is the point.
