Atrik Posted April 27, 2025 Share Posted April 27, 2025 Just realized that the Seleucids spears actor hold javelins, is it on purpose? Looks a bit weird. https://gitea.wildfiregames.com/0ad/0ad/src/branch/main/binaries/data/mods/public/art/actors/units/seleucids/infantry_spearman_b.xml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan` Posted April 28, 2025 Share Posted April 28, 2025 The thyreophoroi or thureophoroi (Greek: θυρεοφόροι; sg.: thureophoros/thyreophoros, θυρεοφόρος) were a type of infantry soldier, common in the 3rd to 1st centuries BC, who carried a large oval shield called a thyreos which had a type of metal strip boss and a central spine. They were armed with a long thrusting spear, javelins and a sword. They also usually wore an iron or bronze Macedonian helmet.
