Is it too much to ask of who will have the strongest heavy infantry? I'm guessing either the Hellenes or Romans, but I'm still curious.

Mostly Celtic, from quite a few sides, Germanic, possibly Gaul and certainly British. And apparently, I'm Phoenecian.

It's boiling one day, raining down a storm the next.

Hey, my name's Bonnie and I'm a 16 year old lass from Australia. My interests revolve around art/animation, the Greco-Persian wars and Aussie football. My favourite bands are Husker Du, Kitchens of Distinction and the Pixies, and my favourite game is Age of Mythology. Looking forward to 0 AD very much. Oh, and if a spare character concept artist is needed, I'll gladly be of service.

Awesome... although I didn't think Leonidas had a transverse crest, judging by the statues at Sparta and Thermopylae, but they could have been wrong too. So, no cloaks?

So I was just looking at the most recent screenshot between the Hellenes and the Celts, and I noticed that the only thing that really distinguishes the Spartiates from the ordinary Hoplites is the lambda. Do you think you'll add cloaks or transverse crests to make them look a bit more unique, or will that stray away from the historical side of things too much? Unless of course, the Spartans work as a very similar unit and can be comprised in the same phalanx as the other hoplites, I think it might make the two a little confusing to work with, and I know I'll be using them a lot for sure. Cheers.
