Although when I was zoomed out yestday whilst playing agincourt I tried to select some valour flags, confusing it for a unit lol. But its just about getting used to them. Also, they are a msut for troops identification now, which is a godo thing, no more bright pink factions (Byzantine's units, judging by that axemen on .com site, have extremely minimal pink, which is great!)

LOL reminds me of bright pink eastern infantry. Looked like they were wearing pyjamas. The polar opposite of intimidating.. which makes sense when you fight them :surrender: :nurse:

Although they inevitably "hover" somewhat (as in R:TW), the new banners look fantastic in my opinion, and accurately reflect (for the majority of factions) the extent to which standards were a feature of medieval armies.

I love them , but they are annoying when you get close distance to troops to see the big poles between the soldiers , they should fade when getting close look ...

The banners itself are nice, but it breaks the atmosphere. If the banners were shorter and you saw soldiers actually carrying those flags, I would love them. But now, I don't like the huge wooden poles sticking out from a soldiers neck. I think I'll be fiddling around in the preferences once M2TW is out.

I hate them but I can't vote!!!!!!!!!!
