sanderd17 Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Sorry, I don't get your question, do you want to modify the game, or are you asking if that's possible with the current game?For the last case, the answer is no. Civs only have a limited set of units showing off their historical strengths. If a civ didn't have strong javelinists, it won't be shown in the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sanderd17 Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 We aren't talking about the Libyan civ though, we're talking about the Carthagians. They used many mercenaries, and they already have a javelinist available, the Iberian one. As the Iberians provided many mercenaries, they should be present under the Carthagian civ. So you should compare the Libyan to the Iberian javelinist, and see which one was stronger or used more. If the result is the Libyan one, then there should also be found an alternative Iberian unit.

Lion.Kanzen Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 I think he wants a Libyan skirmisher to play, he do other three post about that. Is not bad idea out as eyecandy. In future may be can be used as mercenary in some kind of gameplay. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone makes it, we could include it.The "libyan" javelinist were the "lonchophoroi""with the same appereance of the libyan spearman, but without spear, they used javelins!!, this unit fight on open formation, launcing many javelins to the enemy, and were very useful for ambushes, but in a "hot batlle" was good"excuse that the source is in spanish, but is very useful!https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ej%C3%A9rcito_de_Cartago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
