I don't come here a lot any more. You know why? Because you suck. That's right, I'm talking to you. Your annoying attitude, bad grammar, illogical arguments, false beliefs and pathetic attempts at humour have driven me and many other nice people from this forum. You should feel ashamed. Report here at once to recieve your punishment. Scumbag.

Re: Iphikratous Hoplitai Shield
According to the historical sources, Iphikrates' peltasts carried 'symmetrical' pelte. What symmetrical means in this case is hotly debated, and suggestions include circular shields, oblong shields, and crescent-shaped shields.
Re: Iphikratous Hoplitai Shield
Well, that was Iphicrates' originals anyway - a good century or so earlier than the EB starting date. Lots of water in the Volga since then and all.
