Will there be events for being on Ilkla Moor baht'at?Aaaye! That be the wun.
I happen to have on hand Europe Between The Oceans, which quotes the exact same passage from Tacitus and concludes: "The archaeological evidence neatly supports this, showing that the astute Germans did indeed have a preference for old coinage with a higher silver content that was minted before Nero's coinage reforms of AD 64 introduced a level of debasement."So I guess we can just throw out Tacitus's comment here. I would, of course, appreciate that when you are this dismissive you provide some evidence of your own. The next line of Tacitus says this, which I suppose you would also refute:
Silver too is what they seek more than gold, from no fondness or preference, but because small pieces are more ready in purchasing things cheap and common.

Scythed chariots in the Britannic path ?
Scythed chariots were used by the Persian Empire, the Seleucid Empire and the Pontic Kingdom.
The Britons used light chariots, as had the Gauls.

Various places being two . . .As suggested above, scythed chariots are mentioned in various places. Pomponius Mela wrote about them in as late as 40 AD in a British context, and they are mentioned much earlier for the gauls, during Caesar's invasion.
I was going to say that. MMMM?Kind of seems like EU4's ideas a little.
The Celtic warriors who served in Ptolemaic armies were Galatians (Gauls who had settled in Asia Minor). They were recruited as mercenaries and probably were better disciplined and better equipped than general Celtic warband 'levies'; sword armed heavy infantry. Present in relatively small numbers, e.g. a few hundred.But will my Ptolemaic Egyptian army have Macedonic Phalanx & Celtic warriors? Like they did historically
why would Germanic Tribes have Chariots?No Berserkers for Germans or Woad for the Britans. Also cheaper chariots for the Germans make no sense since chariots dont work well in Forests
