Horse bearers I'm not quite sure what you mean. We'll have horsemen and chariotry. You have a point but for us right now it's more of a luxury if someone wants to do the voices we could consider it, but not something we'll focus on for now.
Sorry for my weird translation ..
I meant horse-bearer with animation banner carrier who rides on horseback .. , -bearer for a new animation-rider . Horseman carrier banner in his hand (in a chariot or on horseback, but without animation spears).

5) We are interested in the idea of decreasing the number of settlements per faction and thereby increasing the number of smaller factions, but we are focused right now on getting the mod done. Too many mods (and especially a bad habit of mine) is to 'think with the stomache, not with the brain".
That the if in addition to the wild
Thracian tribes the north of the Greece (with the designation of a late the future Odrissian kingdom) to introduce into the game more and
Phoenician city? Based on the fact that the historical facts about the continued existence of the
Phoenician cities and culture, it is possible to gather information about the clothing, weapons, and rulers Phoenicians. This will allow a little more to divide fractions in North Africa.
...<***>"Fernand Braudel remarked in The Perspective of the World that Phoenicia was an early example of a "world-economy" surrounded by empires. The high point of Phoenician culture and sea power is usually placed c. 1200–800 BC.

Many of the most important Phoenician settlements had been established long before this: Byblos, Tyre, Sidon, Simyra, Arwad, and Berytus, all appear in the Amarna tablets. Archeology has identified cultural elements of the Phoenician zenith as early as the 3rd millennium BC.
The league of independent city-state ports, with others on the islands and along other coasts of the Mediterranean Sea, was ideally suited for trade between the Levant area, rich in natural resources, and the rest of the ancient world. During the early Iron Age, in around 1200 BC an unknown event occurred, historically associated with the appearance of the Sea Peoples from the north. They weakened and destroyed the Egyptians and the Hittites respectively. In the resulting power vacuum, a number of Phoenician cities rose as significant maritime powers.
The societies rested on three power-bases: the king; the temple and its priests; and councils of elders. Byblos first became the predominant center from where the Phoenicians dominated the Mediterranean and Erythraean (Red) Sea routes. It was here that the first inscription in the Phoenician alphabet was found, on the sarcophagus of Ahiram (c. 1200 BC). Later, Tyre gained in power. One of its kings, the priest Ithobaal (887–856 BC) ruled Phoenicia as far north as Beirut, and part of Cyprus. Carthage was founded in 814 BC under Pygmalion of Tyre (820–774 BC). The collection of city-states constituting Phoenicia came to be characterized by outsiders and the Phoenicians as Sidonia or Tyria. Phoenicians and Canaanites alike were called Sidonians or Tyrians, as one Phoenician city came to prominence after another"".
