Probably people who were talking loudly in the reference section, as a warning to others.
Oh, Iberians.

Iberians and Spain

Iberians and Spain
Both Iberians and Gauls fight as lightly armored line infantry (with different kit), but Carthaginian commanders seem to view Gauls in particular as expendable & unreliable.
There's a clear hierarchy: African units shielded from casualties and the Gauls exposed to them; Iberians in the middle. 19/

now imagining a timeline where diseases didn't cripple mesoamerican civilizations and you had a thunderdome of the locals vs Iberians vs Maghrebi
I wonder what effects the Arab world carried to Spanish Caribbean?
they obviously left their mark on Spanish culture, but i wonder how much of that was still distinct in the 15/16th centuries.

Those huge numbers of Iberians mostly fight in Spain (but some are moved to Africa or cross the Alps with Hannibal). Army composition differs not only by *who* (big Iberians are mostly a Barcid thing), but also by *where* as only the Numidians and Africans get shipped around a bunch. 29/

Didn't Bronze age Iberians domesticate foxes, or has that been debunked?
The reaction to this tweet on UK Twitter has informed me that London foxes are self domesticating.

So we might say something like:
45% North African Conscripts
45% Mercenaries from Wherever (Iberians, Gauls, Greeks)
10% Numidians and sundry
As the roughest of all rough estimates (very rough! do not quote!) 27/

Just like us, the audience, I like how the iberians perception of the sea also shifted to wonder. I really like this tidbit from Thornstar's file and I hope the upcoming event on CN will explore the shift in the iberians attitude towards the sea

Making progress on my 10mm ancient Iberians. 10 bases of Scutarii and 6 bases of Caetrati. Fabulous STLs from Cromarty Forge.

Over the weekend my grandson (5) played his first wargame. He is taken with numbers & after playing “Dice Yatzee” he noticed several WWII ships on my gaming table complete with dice. After some discussion we deployed the Ancient Romans & Iberians. He enjoyed defeating my Iberians #DBA #15mm

Sorry but even on the vulgar „it’s colonialism when ship” the Iberians invented the caravel, the colonialism ship

Friday evening a group of us gathered for a series of Ancient wargames using #15mm miniatures & the #DBA rules. My own games, numbering three, centred around Iberia with Celtiberians & Iberians engaged against Gauls. The Iberians are from my collection, others from another players.

The death of the Liberal Order (tm) is surreal. Sometimes it feels like I live in a Rome which got taken over by a guy who said the Roman Empire was a fucking scam at its expense and all the Roman Iberians and North Africans and so forth are both pissed and really confused.

In the First Punic War, we can't be really confident on the mix, but Polybius' description of the army that revolts when the war is done reports Iberians, Gauls, Balearians, significant numbers of Greeks, but by far the largest amount were North Africans. 26/

Inshallah is just a useful concept, so much so that Iberians even adopted it with terms like 'Oxala'
