Tomcelmare Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 Hi there! What about giving a golden armour for the seleucid elephants? I've got a little picture here: We could also give the same skin for Seleucos Nicator, maybe with an additional warrior in the mahout? I think it would enhance the difference between mauryan and seleucid elephants. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomcelmare Posted June 5, 2016 Author Share Posted June 5, 2016 Well, then bronze it is. But you know what I mean, no? A different, shiny colour would add something to the elephant line, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wowgetoffyourcellphone Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 (edited) Yes, a special model for the Seleucid war elephant would be great. Edited June 5, 2016 by wowgetoffyourcellphone 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wowgetoffyourcellphone Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 (edited) Another view: This interpretation by the late-great Angus McBride I think, and is iconic. Edited June 5, 2016 by wowgetoffyourcellphone 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcelmare Posted June 5, 2016 Author Share Posted June 5, 2016 Maybe the silvershield champion unit could use a silver mask and a different helmet...it could separate them further from the goldenshield civ unit which has the same look only with a golden shield and armour...

The Chalkaspides have a different helm type, I'm sure of that. The Argyraspides look like the Pheztarios (Foot Companions) but realistically they did, just silver..... EDIT: the Chalkaspides have the helm you see in the pics above, and the Argyraspides have the stereotypical bearded Macedonian helm.... I believe thats accurate, but I'm not sure.
