Nothing earth shattering - and a couple of new screens:

...oh and a new Roman unit - the "Astarte". :no:
I'm pretty sure that's a typo coupled with obliviousness to grammer meaning Hastati, much like triaria, being Triarii.
Unless that was what you meant in which case I only wrote: Lol!
Re: the thread title, "A Few More Crumbs from the Table":

That's true enough but I want to see more!!!!!!!!
Specifically, I would like to see the phalanx and how a multi-unit group of them manuevers. I am concerned about that as RTW badly bungled that mechanic.

It seems the writer transcribed from his tape recording and where the recording was unclear/distorted just went with a best guess. Triarii, Hastati and Coolus Helmet have somehow become something else. :( There also appears to be some paraphrasing that have changed the meaning of what i said. Mostly accurate though.
Aww, I was kinda hoping it was a harbinger of a Carthaginian Cultural victory :crowngrin:
I thought it was from translating from British accent to Aussie accent.
