    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"?

    Abou makes a good point: most likely I'd be standing with 239 somewhat unwilling co-workers either wavering or routing.

    Well I'd like to be in the Irish super-heavy inf, the idea of carrying more metal than a medium sized motorcycle on my back appeals to me.

    If I lose a few more kg's I'll be volunteering for Dhampir's elite formation. Maybe we can have "escalator ladders" to make the wall climbing a bit easier?

    I'd probably wind up a Peltast, a Hoplite or a Skirmisher-horseman of some kind. We can afford a Pony or two.

    Oh, but I already have an aesthetically pleasing point bling bling with which to poke the opponent in my right hand. If all goes well, he doesn't have to say a thing -- he wouldn't be able to. :D

    Permit me my fangirl moments, okay? :(

    Any of the three man-tank units.

    But I'd probably be some Scandinavian Guy, hopefully a Hearth-man

    Perhaps an archer or skirmisher or Voinu (geographicaly), I am hardly a macho, so there is no chance of being something where lot of strenght is needed. Another oportunities are siege engineer, diplomat or spy.
    And the top ones - with good social status and training - Elite Hoplite,Brihentin, Bosphoran archer

    Geographicaly I would be a balearic slinger.

    Ethnically I don't know, in Hispania it's difficult to say (I can't see more far than Middle Age), probably some sort of iberian milites, roman or german trooper.

    If I had to choose something - I would go with some elite phalangites: Lets say Seleucid silvershields - You would find me in the last row. ( I guess that this could be quite a safe place for me with at least seven (up to fifteen) rows of battle hardened and skilled veterans in front of me)

    Geographicaly I would be a Boii swordsmen, but ethnically I would be proto-slavic human flesh eater (Voinu - Slavic spearman)

    Geographically and money wise I would be a Brigantes Lugoae or Botroas.
    I would like to be a Kluddargos though.
