Is it possible...
...to edit the idle stances of units? I like how Pezhetairoi and like units stand at arms,with their shields held over their chests,rather than with them hanging down at their sides.
I somehow doubt it is possible,but Spartiatai and other elite classical hoplitai units would look far more disciplined with this kind of idle stance.

It's probably possible. I would think you'd just need to edit some animations.

Possible ? Oh, certainly. Just a wee bit difficult...
Anyway, in this case also uncalled for. The damn aspis weighed a ton (well, 6-10 kg or thereabouts by what I've read but close enough for most intents and purposes), and when not immediately needed it was either put onto the ground to lean against the owner's legs, or the upper interior rim hooked onto the shoulder to take some of the weight off the poor shield arm.
Any idiot knew enough to save his strenght and stamina to the actual combat, after all.

Yeah,the weight of the shield did come to mind when I thought about this. I'm only playing around with a few personal customizations to pair up with my favored no plagues / one-turn recruiting alterations.
And I know what the Greek word for it is,but I just used 'shield' because I had somewhere important to be at the time and had only a few seconds to type that up.
Maybe I'm mistaken here,but I'm beginning to get the feeling that you don't seem to like me. Did I say something here that offended you?

By no means. It's just the way I tend to talk, and I've been unusually snarky lately in general. While I do have a (short) "hate list", you're not on it.
