*****GK: Would it be correct to assume that (as far as we know) Thracian/Thrakoid languages were not lambdacising?*****

In the first place, they did not merge PIE *r and *l (as *r) the way Indo-Iranian did. As far as I can tell, Thracian and Dacian simply retained the PIE distribution of the two liquids.
