I think it would be nice if Gaia had their own flag.

I thought it had. But it's not wanted that it's (always) used?

You've made many good suggestions. I think I'll make a Gaia banner in case @Freagarach wants to use it in some way.

Gaia is not a civ though.

Well, if they behave like a civ (for example by using banners)...

Isn't the banner suppose to show the civ like it does though? Certainly is more useful than showing a gaia banner imo. Also more consistent.

Those are Celtic units. So the banner shows a civ but not the civ. Don't see how usefulness or consistency come into play here.

Nice. btw what do you think about them being units from other civs rather then their own kind? In Germany for example the Vandals are proverbial...

Just saying there might be a different use for it, such as when Gaia soldiers are used to attack players with triggers and whatnot. Doesn't hurt to have it available.

I just meant they have a civ, but aren't one, was my point.

Good point, didn't catch that. (it really should just show the civ though imo)

The issue is just the tip of the iceberg: some, but not all, of the other factions have their citizen hoplites and pikemen unable to do their own idle stances as well. Pericles also has the same defect:

Romans also have this with their testudo and anti-cavalry. The two Atlas-only infantry heroes excluding Scipio have scuta and can't normally assume the former. The evocati and other Roman champions (i.e. legionaries) are unable to be distinguished with the republican extraordinarii:

Look at the idle animations of the citizen hoplites, pikemen, and Roman soldiers that are assuming the phalanx, syntagma, or testudo and anti-cavalry formations, respectively. It's just their normal idle animations being played rather than their intended effect after stopping. Only the Libyan and diadochi mercenary spearmen are able to do their idle phalanx positions.

I saw some earlier posts about unit silhouettes and I encountered this one in an online 2v2. Tried a rehost, which is the second game, and it did not resolve the issue.  It also happens in singleplayer if I try that.

@BreakfastBurrito_007 said this was not a problem in RC2 btw. Also happens for every civ. Was there a revision that changed gamesetup?
