EB's Removed Units (Nostalgia thread, not "how to get them back")

[Aurgelmir]

Its a shame that they take out these good looking units...(damn i love 2 handed axes)

Sometimes a (fantasy unit)isn't that bad

Isn't there a way to get them back?..(with very small letters...axeunits)

Yes, that Corinthian "Hoplite" looks more like an Attic Phalangite, to tell you the truth.
They look much better now.

Thank you, Ludens, for the clarification and Bobbin for the pictures.

Well, the "Install EB .7 something and make a forgotten unit shrine idea isn't going so well- I gave my old RTW game to a friend once I bought the TW Eras set, and I think I'm stuck with an instantly installed RTW 1.5 now, while old EB requires 1.2 to even run. I can't even get it to start, and patching 1.2 over the later install didn't work either. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks for the added units in this thread as well! I'd like to get a set of the unit pictures, names, and full descriptions, again for curiosity/nostalgia's sake, just not sure how to accomplish it yet...

I'm pretty sure one of the mods included in Lz3's modpack includes a revert back to the old cohort skin. I've got it installed but haven't made it anywhere near getting imperial units in my Roman campaign...

What i did was install the game into a empty folder so you have all the files. All the UI pics,textures and unit models were in a .pak file so i had to get a pak extractor to get at them (theres a few in the modding sections of the forums). The descriptions of the units will be in the text folder found in the EB directory, in a file called EXPORT_UNITS.txt.

It's a real pity the Aithiopikon Agema and the Merjoz didn't fit into the EB timeframe.

Yay, cheers guys
