Re: Unit changes/New unit implementation/3d and 2d unit graphics
Lakadaimoni are those from Lacadaimon. Lakadaimon is the domain of Sparta. You have helots, allies, and spartans. Allies are in an inferior position, think republican rome and the italian allies. Spartan hoplites would be the best armored and armed. The allies would have less in the way of arms, sometimes fighting without any armor. Helots were only allowed to be skirmishers and the like, and were notoriously unreliable. Spartan hoplites (as an elite unit) would probably have linen armor or even a bronze cuirass, because they were expected to be in the thick of the melee. The periphery work (cavalry, etc) would be left to the allies, whose armor would be inferior.

Re: Unit changes/New unit implementation/3d and 2d unit graphics
The latest text about the Spartans as an independent power has their hoplites armored with Linen and following the Iphikritean model layed down by Athens and adopted by Thebes, and the elite hoplites armored in bronze.

Remember one thing: these pics are out of date pics. They relate to a much earlier period because of the use of the Corinthian helm. Circa 400BC not 270BC.
Like you said earlier I could claim the same and say this is the Spartan hoplite of 270BC:

Dead Moroz is completelly right on this subject. This is an Historical correction MOD. We're not making units because we feel like it. We are making them to simulate History in the best possible way. We prefer to be sure and make things perfect than to rush stuff just to release the MOD earlier. Speed is the enemy of perfection. :cool:

MMM this is a bad mentality , If you dream the perfect world and do nothing to build it you will never get out of your hom , my politic is
FIRST BUILD , THEN REFINE
AS YOU HAVE SEEN I have made severall units and refined them severall times with some units starting from the Samnite ones ....
then
I never said I was going to make fantasy units , I just try to make them as similar to what is supposed to be the unit at that period of time , men have different opinions , so historians , so what is certain for you may be completely wrong for someonelse , What I try is to please both to reach a compromise of perfection , the Spartan I did is the most accurate reconstruction od a 270 BC hoplit based on deductions , studies , plates comparisons and mergings , is not invented at all!!!
If you have a photograph of a Spartan Hoplit marching on the fields directly from this date then post me , untill then all is mere speculation , I disagree on following stereotipic patterns , the Spartan society was a conservative one , but also a warrior class so the better guess is to have them wear a "spartan" cuirass , fairly common used by Greek hoplits in this period , with their charachteristic lambda shield wich depicts their class status and also their helmet wich is most probably a heritage from the previous generations of warriors in the Spartan society....then the reconstruction is born , the mantle , _(I worked half afternoon to add it ) is becouse they wore it , even if not in combat it made part of their status symbol so should go in and helps recognize them from back wich otherwuise would be very difficoult to distinguish from other hoplits if not from the frontal face.....
then
Aymar de Bois Mauri
You can state by yourself that the pic doesn't shows what I reconstructed , Also you should not undervaluate the maniacism of Miniature painters that most of the time have better sources than historians wich this is the case
Spartans used this pylos helmet countrary of what is believed in ancient classical history corinthian type , which may be you cna see in the Troy movie but not at this time unless for some other units...
also the picture you posted shows a thracian helmet wich is out of place to me for a greek hoplit ....
I am working for recostructing units the more close to what they should like ...and this is why I joined this project , so once made the unit unless special errors if followed right principles of reconstruction , can be criticized but unless you bring a certain prove that this isn't correct then this is the better we can come to ....
also I had other plates and info on books about all the units I reconstructed as you have seen by the many plates I posted , But I got bored to scannerize every time I make a new unit so I preferred to pick up an image from internet that looks more close......

Re : Unit changes/New unit implementation/3d and 2d unit graphics
Well, the pic Aymar posted (representing an Athenian hoplite I think) is IMO the more accurate.
The most recent plate of the "Ancient Greek" (Elite 7) Osprey book, that takes place in ~330BC (not that far from 270BC), clearly shows an athenian hoplite with a phrygian helmet.
Here's a part the comment from the author :
"In the 360s Athenian funerary reliefs start to show hoplites wearing muscle-cuirasses and 'Phrygian' helmets."
Of course, this is not something about Spartan hoplite, but from what I've read, the phrygian helmet was commonly used in greek armies at the end of the 4th century BC.
The book also deals with the contingent sent by the greeks in 278 BC to help the Aetolians against the Galatians.
The corinthian helmet was probably not used anymore in 270BC, though many hoplites were probably wearing a body light armor again.

Re : Unit changes/New unit implementation/3d and 2d unit graphics
Well, here are two pics I took from my Osprey Book. They are quite dodgy, but at least we can see the plates (since I haven't resized the pic, it might take a while to load) :
Late 4BC Hoplite
490 BC Hoplites
Plate 1 Characters are from the left to the right :
Athenian Hoplite, second half 4th BC
Rhodian Hoplite, end of the 4th BC
Greek mercenary, c. 330 BC
Plate 2 characters are from the left to the right :
Lakedaimonian officier 490 BC
Samian hoplite, 490 BC
Athenian hoplite of Alkaionid Clan, 490 BC
Argive hoplite, 490 BC
The main point to this post is to show what Hoplite looked like a few decades before 270BC. They are quite different from the losy hoplite we have for RTW (I don't know if those are accurate, since my knowledge about hellenes is summed up in this book, but I think they suck)
I posted the 2nd plate cause I think the pic you use for the mercenary hoplites' shield was rather related to an Athenian family. I might be wrong on this aswell, but I don't think mercenaries should have that kind of shield.
Anyway, good work on the skins :)

Re: Unit changes/New unit implementation/3d and 2d unit graphics
The Trinacria is a symbol for the millenia - one which has taken root and has become a passionate Sicilian tradition. It derives from the archaic Triskele, that is that strange figure composed of a head of woman from which three human legs are folded at the knee - of Sicily, the notion of the geographic triangular shape of the island finds one of symbolic depiction of the monster with three legs, trìquetra (to three apexes or triangular). In fact, its particular geographic configuration, characterized from three capes, Pachino, Peloro and Lilibeo, are very well adapted to that figure to which the Romans imposed the same overall name for the Island. Perhaps from this configuration to the three apexes, the name Triquetra or Trinacria was given in the Hellenistic Age. That strange and characteristic representation at the same time, was of the Gorgon-like figure of three legs, and was even adopted in some coins of classic antiquity, and become the official symbol of the island. Philology supports that this last denomination is improper, while it is contended more that in Greek the Triskéles, is translatable into " three legs ".

Re: Unit changes/New unit implementation/3d and 2d unit graphics
Ok, I've said it before, I'll say it again... Greek hoplites of 500 B.C. and Greek hoplites of 270 B.C. are going to have some important differences. Once upon a time, there was this guy named Iphikrates. He made some important reforms to Greek warfare that revolutionized it and paved the way for Philip of Macedon. He got rid of the cumbersome bronze armor (relegating it to an elite corps within the hoplites that was to be in the hardest fighting) and replaced it with the much better (and lighter) linen. He got rid of the hoplon and replaced it with the an ovular shield that was known later as the theuros. He lengthened the spear considerably to anywhere between 10 and 16 feet long. He did away with the last vestiges of the Corinthian helmet and adopted lighter helmets with a broad amount of space for the face and cheek guards. Your standard Greek hoplite of 270 B.C. had an even longer spear than those used by Iphikrates (if we take the lengthening of the hellenistic sarissa to be an example, the Greeks probably would have had a weapon at least twelve feet long by 270 B.C.) and the theuros became a bit longer and narrower after it was redesigned after the gallatian attacks.
These 'Iphikratean' hoplites dominated Greek warfare until the assimilation of the Greek states by Rome. They also had armored cousins, but these seem to have been armored with mail, and so the bronze cuirass was relegated to such units as the 'spartan' hoplites in-game. Those units that were going to be in the thickest melee and needed protection over speed. The vast majority would have been armored with linen, maybe 20% with mail (the veterans) and maybe as little as 5% (the ultra-elite) with bronze armor, greaves and the older style hoplon shield.
here's a good source for part of what I'm talking about. Diadoros, Arrian, and Nepos can tell you the rest.
http://www.ne.jp/asahi/luke/ueda-sar...hikrates1.html
As for unarmored hoplites, these were called the ekdromoi, and were not much used after the advent of the theurophoroi, the javelin armed soldier with a light spear who could beat the tar out of most peltasts.

I never said you were making fantasy units!!! In fact, I praised you several times for your accuracy. I was just asking for a plate to compare it to, because I had a very different idea taken from my readings.

Well, didn't you understood what I've said? I never questioned the use of that helm. Of course the corinthian wasn't used in that age. My problem is more with the cuirass than the rest.

For you. But it could be correct because it was a standard by then. The same happened with the corinthian one some 150 years before. It became a standard.
But, as I've said before, your helm isn't the issue. I was just asking about the cuirass or linen armour.

That is the point of the question. We can't be working for convinience. We must work for perfectionism. And, believe me, your work can achieve that. It already did with some other units. ~:)
