@Thalatta The actor actually uses several variations, so that it can be all things at once.

Can you align the /\  with the drape ?

[Thalatta]

@nifa, just a couple of additional details:

-The nine shields should have a rim, and be part of distinct stone blocks, as seen in the photo.

-There should be no wood in it, everything was replaced with stone and metal.

All done:

All the shields, armor and helmets are defined in tropaion_post.xml (so it's basically a small tropaion). I've added all kind of spartan shields:

We can easily add or cut out any asset to match historical accuracy

Looks really good! I doubt the apron (parablema) would have been added to the aspis. I guess you didn't switch the sword not to have everything on the left? One possibility is to rotate it a bit backwards. Also, I guess the game in general assumes that swords hanged from belts, when they did so from a shoulder strap, as in the picture I posted.

Exactly, having the sword on that side is for aesthetic reason. Same for the apron, but I actually want it to appear only every now and then, don't know how to achieve that in the actor file.
