====== LA Arcoscpehale, Sibylline Guidance ======
===== Lore =====
Arcoscephale is an old kingdom that once ruled much of the known world. With the fall of the Old Kingdom centuries ago, tradition was the only thing that remained to the population. Mystics and priestesses of the old cult still serve the kings of Arcoscephale. The infantry and cavalry are still hopelessly archaic, but the Awakening of the New God has brought some changes. Some traditions have been abandoned and the cavalry has been improved. Skilled and lightly armed phalangites are starting to replace the heavier hoplites and the cardaces. Although the wise Astrologers who aided past kings were killed or disbanded, a new breed of seeresses called the Sibyls has appeared. The Sibyls offer great help in maneuvering the once-mighty kingdom to a powerful platform for the Awakening God. Priestesses with great knowledge of healing are trained in ancient temples built during the peak of the Old Kingdom. The priestesses are able to scry upon enemy troops and provinces that are located within the God's Dominion. The former conquest of the known world has led to an acceptance of strange cultures and beliefs. The Arcoscephalian population are quick to adopt foreign cults, but only to incorporate them into their own belief system. The Awakening God is viewed as the Master of All and all other gods are just aspects of the Great One. Temples and religious sites of other faiths are converted and the faith of the Awakening One is imposed upon newly conquered lands.
//"Arcoscephale is together with Pythium the first nation conceived in the creation of Dominions. After having played GMT's Great Battles of Alexander and S.P.Q.R. I got fascinated by ancient warfare, and the hoplites were among the first units to appear in Dominions. At first the two nations were one, with a troop rooster of ancient units, while Man and later on Ulm had troop roosters with a more medieval touch. Soon, however, it became clear that Pythium and Arcoscephale should be two distinct nations. Arcoscephale is heavily influenced by ancient Greek city states and Hellas. The Golden Age is influenced by the mythical past and the archaic age. Later ages boast Hellenic and Mesopotamian influences: elephants, mysteries and Chaldean astrologers." -Illwinter//

==== National Special Features ====
**Order Limit + 1**
**Scry:** Arcoscephale will scry on all provinces under its dominion. This scrying is very accurate and will also reveal enemy units that are using the glamour ability to hide. The information gained from this will be available to disciple players as well.
**Syncretism:** Enemy temples are not razed, but converted if a priest is in the army. God starts with one additional divine title.
**Hydrophoria:** Periodically after Turn 5, a ??Hydrophoros of the West?? and a ??Hydrophoros of the East?? are proclaimed; the former happens six turns after the latter. These ladies generate {{gems>1W}} each ({{gems>2W}} total). If held in the capital together, they periodically add **+{{scales>G2}}** to the capital and reduce [[Unrest]]; if not around, they increase Unrest at the same times. Only one of each can be had, but new ones will be proclaimed if one or more is slain.
