Hannibal was black game little bugy, but good enough.
I think that empire total war is a racist game No black armies no and I think from doing research that the total empire war fourm the community is anit black. There is NO black hannibal Mods and people that make them get put down. Dispite there is tons of proof hannibal was black. No black Romans
Carthage had been settled by Phoenicians as a city-state in North Africa near the current Tunis. In his 1961 work, French Historian Gabriel Audisio comments that he considered "Hannibal to be neither a Phoenician, nor a Carthaginian, nor a Punic, but a North African... The majority of the Punic populace seems to have had African, indeed Negroid, ancestry." Whether described as Carthaginians, Phoenicians, or Punics of North Africa, according to Audisio's research they were certainly a mix of aboriginal North Africans that included the native Berbers, Moors and other groups

Throughout the total war series, there has been a long trend of misrepresented ethnicities and nations in Africa, that did not so much favor the darker complexioned Africans.
Examples:
Berber and numidian portrayal in Rome 1, Medieval 2.
Mixed Ethnicities of Carthage, including the large berber and numidian presence stated previously. (Hannibal was half Numidian)
Nubian Culture, in Rome 2, the nobility is depicted as tribal, when at this time they would have a culture and political system related to Ancient Egypt, though alot of the population were also semi-nomadic or nomadic.
I also noted, the complexion of Makurians of Medieval 2, of which portrayed them as rather dry skinned, which was not that common as depicted, as there were many natural, and developed remedies for dry skin, though I also acknowledge that there may have been some exceptions to these.( I also acknowledge that there could have been limited texturing options to allow more accurate depictions, to make them look less dry skinned...?)
Almoravid Ruling Nobility, along with many other Moroccan dynasties were also historically of darker complexion, along with many of their citizens. The Christians there, the largely european populace there, in fact were seen by their society as inferior to the Berber-Arab aristocracy, and were largely enslaved..
I believe they could have compensated in Medieval with just a few unit add ons to represent the diversity of some of the African units that were available in the regions, let alone a bit less biased depiction of the ones existing.
You made it so that black people can't even be given shoes for Christ's sake.
Also. now you want to white wash Attila and steal the history of Asian people too. "
