Greek unit names?

[abou]

Pheraspidai has been corrected to Pheraspides in the game except for the voice mod. It will be corrected though... sort of.

Pheraspides were originally concepted as Hypaspistai in assault gear (hence the invented name); however, further research has determined that there was a third component in the elites - a sort of bastard child of a threeway between phalangites, peltastai, and hypaspistai. Essentially, the Pheraspides are the non-phalangite Peltastai, but different from the skirmisher Peltastai that wield the thureos. So in EB 1.1 expect a change.

Confused? You should be.

That sounds interesting indeed. Can't wait for my 1.1 Makedonian campaign! Will there be a third elite unit, or will you change existing Pheraspides / Hypaspistai (Hypaspides?)?

The intent is to change the Pheraspides, but I don't know how far we'll get. At the least a name change and description change; at the most a slight model change, but that depends on if we can get anyone willing to do it and whether we actually do decide to do it.
