Necroing the thread but this is basically the “custom civ icons” thread so I wanted to share the one I made to replace the Xianbei one on the Rename the Three Kingdoms mod, as I didn’t like the one the author used (sorry to whoever created it)
It’s based on this plaque that belonged to the Xianbei culture
“According to the dynastic history of the Wei, they were led into China by a mysterious animal spirit that was shaped like a horse and that bellowed like an ox.”
With the devs making a Viking split resulting with “Vikings”, “Danes” and “Varangians”, a Saracen split would probably end up with “Saracens”, “Iraqis” and “Mamelukes”
But yeah, in the end Syrians are probably the most likely ones to be grouped together with another civ.
