    Question Faction Uniformity

    I'm just wondering about how uniform the units of a faction will be. With the multiple skins per unit, hopeful this uniformity will be reduced.

    For those who have idea about what the heck I'm talking, I'm going back to EB1 and how many Epeirote units were dressed in green. It was a great faction and great textures, but in comparison to the units of other factions, I didn't particularly enjoy this green uniformity.

    Cool Re: Faction Uniformity

    I think hardly any units will be uniform, though maybe you meant something else or you could be drinking too much energy drinks, caffeine or beer.

    No Uniformity! except a kind of it for certain state equipped troops.

    At best you will find a reccurence of emblems on the shields (to represent a local god, etc..), or equipement types.

    Indeed, this is one of the things that is taking so much time.

    So, exceptions made for state-equipped troops, chances are the Epeirotes, even if their armour is varied, won't all be wearing green tunics?

    That made me think: Why did Epeiros where green?

    How can one possibly answer such a question?
    This was decided upon much prior to me being a member of EB, so I can't really say.

    Pyrrhos was known to be an environmentalist, that's why he invaded Rome, to help fight global warming.

    How much can different people in a unit vary? For example how many shields/helmets/uniforms can there be in one unit?
