Thorfinn the Shallow Minded Posted 15 hours ago Report Share Posted 15 hours ago This is a fairly minor quibble, but Spartan Olympic Champions should probably be renamed Hippeis to better reflect the truly elite contingent of the Spartan army. For those familiar with Greek, this may sound as if I am suggesting that they be mounted, yet the royal bodyguard, which was on foot and fought in the phalanx, was called that long after horses ceased to be a relevant component of the Spartan military.

Deicide4u Posted 15 hours ago Report Share Posted 15 hours ago Yeah, I thought you wanted them to suddenly promote to cavalry, lol. "Olympic Spartiates" sound better, honestly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
