    What I would want to be, Late Parthian Kataphraktoi.


    I've got a lot of money. I could afford to be just about any elite in the mod.
    In that case I would be one of those spear throwing jews in the game

    I'd want to be in Argyraspides of the Seleukids if I had a choice.

    I could probably actually afford to be one of them too, maybe even part of the Hetairoi cavalry. My family on my mom's side is quite wealthy and prominent in the Philippines. My grandparents have been close associates to every Filipino president since Ferdinand Marcos, which for anyone who knows about Marcos and most recently Estrada and Arroyo can come across as a mixed blessing at times.

    Well, the Silver Shield corps worked a bit differently. They were sons in their twenties of military settlers and equipped by the state until their time in the corps was served.

    Well if he was in Makedonia, he'd probably have to be a salty dog of the pikemen.

    A British general's chariot. I'd be one of the ponies.

    I'd much rather be a phalangite of the Arche Seleukeia then

    Hmm now maybe I could be one of the Peltastai Makedonikoi. They were quite often sons of nobility and I think being part of a family that have been confidants to leaders of a country would make me eligible (If I was a son of one of the noble families in the Arche that is).

    My name notwithstanding, I'd like to be a member of the argyraspidai. The Thorakitai Argyraspidai. They are lean and mean and shiny all over. And I love the gorgon head on their shield.

    Pez, you sound like a woman . Will you be asking for an aesthetically pleasing (high bling factor) pointy object with which you can force opponents to say "Ouch, that hurts"?
