Before Empire and Rome 2 this was our franchise. We were happy, content, we had expansions and quality games. But Sega has destroyed those times. They put us to sleep with golden promises of quality, when we wake up though, our expectations were gone. THEY take the new fans and turn them into little money machines. So we must fight... There can be no PEACE No peace with Sega. Men of greed, DLC and lies... There can be only WAR....
Instant Message: The Senate and People of Rome demands you to become supreme ruler and Imperator of all Sega Councils known to mankind for this auguristic summary of the current situation.
First time l heard this l was blown away. This intro explains who you are fighting, and why you are fighting. This little paragraph is powerful causing me to hate the Roman enemies l would soon be facing. Giving me pleasure to see their forces routed and cities crushed before the might of our brothers in arms. Always pushing ourselves forward to make that wound in the Romans deeper. To raise our banners across their lands brought me joy. Our fathers and forefathers cheering in my dreams as the stories of our victory dance into their ears....... A little into it there heh. Great intro.
Ооо! Галлия была первой фракцией, после римских в которую я сыграл (открылась первой), от чего пересмотрел свои взгляды по поводу них и начал постоянно в процессе игры вспоминать фильм "храброе сердце". В общем, очень будоражит. Единственный минус - не особо эта фракция выделяется среди прочих варваров.
This is one of the many reasons why I prefer this Rome over the sequel. These barbarians had dignity. They were gruff, yet tempered. In my opinion I felt these men were an absolute pleasure to listen to as opposed to the sequel where I really didn't like the voice acting. Too grating, too hammy.
This was my favorite intro. It really supplanted the idea that you are fighting to defend this faction’s land from Roman expansion. Really gave you the role play feeling of fighting to defend Gaul
This very intro inspired me as I start playing barbarian factions and first saw this intro to re-think my coordinate of believes. How this is not sounds like what happens now??? I felt I had held this believes altogether, I just needed to systemise it. I believe we are descendants of "barbarians" - Scandinavians, people of Westernmost Europe (France, Germans, Benelux countries), Russians too, Spaniards and Latin-american countries; and we are those who oppose, more and more now, to descendants of "Romans" - US of A, NATO, EU... People of iron, walls and lies, of drilling and goosestepping you into what to think, what to wear, what to do. And we opposed it - people of love, compassion, spirituality, people who venerate Old Ways. and now we might face time of wolves and swords, when they say pour values are "outdated", "medieval" etc.
Before my father's father was born, our gaming was on the treasured classics of legacy. The Atari, the Nintendo, the Sega, the PlayStation, the XBox...these were our good places. Our classic nerd masters lived here. The superior graphics of our rich imaginations, they watched over us. We are happy. We forage, we have sex, we have good social relationships and well-rounded lives. But sometimes we must fight. The TW gamers disturb the console gods, they burn them in flame war on the Internets. They take away what is ours: girlfriends, accident children, and console game market share. And the TW gamers talk about how they will help us and better entertain us. They put us to sleep with golden high frame rate promises. When we wake, all what we had is gone, STOLEN! They take our sons and turn them into little neckbearded virgins. BAH! So we fight to keep what is ours, what MUST STAY OURS. There can be no peace, no PEACE with the oh-so-glorious 'PC Master Race', virgin men of flashy graphics, processing power, and BAD TROLLING. There can be only FLAME WAR!!!
This intro is so relevant today.. And this is coming from someone that had more affinity for the "Civilized Factions " Greece and Rome.. You could replace Romans with Globalists/Banking Cartels/Mega Corporations
britons are the strongest, because their warlords are the strongest cavarly unit, they just slice enemy cavalry like butter. I have won so many times with them, it was like i have one army vs 3 or 4 roman armies and i just beat them like nothing
Before my grandfather’s grandfather was born, this was our land. These are our good places, our gods live here, in the trees and rivers, they watch over us. We are happy, we hunt, we love, we have families, homes and good lives. But sometimes we must _fight._ The Romans disturb the gods, they burn the forests, they take what is ours, wives, children, land. And the Romans talk of how they will “help us” and “protect us”. They put us to sleep with gold and promises, and when we wake all we had is gone, STOLEN. They take our sons and turn them into “little romans”, HAH! *So we fight to keep what is ours. What must Stay OURS. THERE CAN BE NO PEACE, NO PEACE WITH ROMANS! MEN OF STONE AND IRON AND **_LIES!!_** THERE CAN BE ONLY WAR!!!*
I think rather than touching, this intro is the most inspiring in terms of getting men to fight. The whole thing is great (the best intro in my view), but 0:59 onward...FUCK YEAH! (through gritted teeth)
The best part about this intro is you first hear it probably after playing a Roman campaign where you conquered and enslaved the Gauls. Makes you realise you weren't the good guys.
A large part of me wants Creative Assembly to make a re-mastered Barbarian intro and put it in Rome 2, and a small part of me knows this is as likely as an topless barbarian horde
I would give up on everything i have just only for Earth to return to the things that were much simpler and not so much destruction of the enviorment,long time ago if you wanted to build a house on a far hill ,you could do that,you could get the hands on resources yourself,now you need lots and lots of papers and gouvernment to manage the resourcers....brothers...we are trapped here and our children until the last wild animal is shot and the last tree was cut! We doomed everything since we left paganism "so called barbaric and non sense religion"
Just a reminder to you internet slooths out there, the Faction in the Game where on a modern nation state map shows england, has nothing to do with english people, language, or culture
No, I meant things that set them apart genetically. In fact, what defines a certain race, according to you? The term Indo-European is extremely broad and refers mainly to the Indo-European language. Very little about the Indo-European people is known for sure and you could easily argue that certain people (like Germanics) do not belong to that group (though their language can be described as Indo-European).
Exotic - Truth - Seeker - Artist Gauls look Gauls because they believe in nature,They have gaullic units you can see there red hair witch the Gauls were known for

greatlotrfan The narrator talks about how sacred the land and its spirits are to him and his people, how they respect it and invaders (Romans) defile it. That's pretty much what "Noble Savage" is in a nutshell.
+SlyBiffrons thats true ... common theme in life is the conflict between the savage heart and civilization ... the original stories of Conan the Barbarian touch on that theme
Gauls in this intro: The Romans are the agressors. Gauls in history: Sack Rome while Rome is still a city rather than an empire, occasionaly raid Rome's lands and constantly support Rome's enemies
Everyone has transgressed everyone, no oppression is justified, and certainly not taking out your delusions of supposed “superiority” over those you deem “barbaric”. The Romans weren’t these heroic geniuses that “civilized the savages”, they were lucky, had advanced technology and systems of governance, and what did they do with it? The same thing every other human-infested civilization did: conquered for the sake of their greed Even if a conqueror has good intentions (like uniting a split up war torn hellpit), their conquest can easily become just another oppressive mess. Roman worship needs to end already, they weren’t supervillains but they weren’t heroes either, and assuming them to be either label is illogical at best.
@@ramenbomberdeluxe4958 I am not saying the Romans were victims. They were quite the opressors, and their eventual downfall was well-deserved. What my previous post meant is that the Romans didn't start attacking and opressing the "barbarian" tribes out of a whim. They had to endure, in the first centuries, plenty of raids from "barbarian tribes" that ravaged their lands, and this led to the Romans seeing them as nothing but barbarian and bloodthirsty tribes. And, sadly, several tribes had to suffer for what a minority did. Then again, that is pretty common to happen in human history. One individual does something bad, and his or her people suffer for centuries due to it.

Agreed, but since this is the case in present day, I say my lyric-parody is quite accurate.
Descendants of cimmerians. The fleeing Khumri/khimmeroi of the house Ohmri. The house of Israel
this wasn't about race, it was about territory, empires clashing, roman's killing for land, barbarians killing for land.
