    Isn't the Latin for "a commander of a hundred" Centuriō or Centurio (no macron), without the final "-n"? Note that champion_infantry_swordsman_04 uses the correct spelling.

    Also, infantry_swordsman_a and/or infantry_swordsman_e should be appended Prīnceps or Princeps (no macron) to draw the line between the first and second rankers, in light of the gear of said two actor counterparts. Separate image(s) for each would be appreciated for structure tree, specifically below civil center/barracks and army camp.

      Noted. Will fix.

      There are a few different ways we could have the Hastatus -> Pinceps line played out.

      Basic: Hastatus

      Advanced: Princeps

      Elite: Centurio

       

      Or have just 2 ranks, where the Roman swordsman is trained from the Advanced rank from the beginning, which would be a unique bonus in itself:

      Advanced (skip "Basic"): Hastatus

      Elite: Princeps

      Veteran -> Champion upgrade: Centurio

       

      Or any number of ways to make this feel unique. A "Pila" technology at the Forge could unlock throwing the Pilum before attacking melee.

    Thanks for fixing the unit actors that used the wrong formation animations. Suggest that the Atlas-only footmen heroes Quintus Fabius and Claudius fix their testudo animations as well since they equip a scutum on their left hand. Don't know about Scipio though.

      I think I can fix those too. :)

    The Seleucid militia cavalry still uses the Achaemenid Median Cavalry icon. Minor edit, or for the next alpha?
    Not wanting to necropost the thread of improving the hero portraits just yet: what of Chandragupta the last to have yet a portrait... either @m7600 or @kul could put the last jigsaw piece, and maybe add one for Maharbal to replace LordGood's watercolor.
    Finally, suggesting that the lacey border of the Han minister's icon be removed as it's a remnant of your mod and none of the hero icons in the main game has one.

      I have several fixes locally, including the Seleucid militia cav one. 

      The Han minister, I kept it because he's not a hero or a standard unit, but special. I might end up removing the lace border regardless.

      Unfortunately, I think a lot of my local art fixes will have to wait for A27. I'll commit them the moment after A26 goes live though.

    Why did you change Hamilcar and Maharbal's portraits, especially the former to Xenophon's?

    Isn't @LordGoods (?) Maharbal too oil pastel-y or watercolory? Talking about the r26691.

    1. wowgetoffyourcellphone

      wowgetoffyourcellphone

      Indeed your assessment is correct. I deemed the Xenophon portrait to fit the others more closely.

    I contracted flu several days ago. :throw-up: I am slowly recovering from it.

      Sucks m8. Had the flu this year too.
