Historically (in)accurate hoplites

[glouch]

what a sorry excuse for a supposedly 'educated' person (Pelopidas_Of_Thebes, i mean).

know-it-all attitude, and more than that, i-can't-be-wrong-you're-the-wrong-one attitude. douches like this would never dare act like this in the real world; they hide behind the anonymity of the internet to conceal what they truly are: attention-seeking, selfish dogs who think the world owes them everything.

these kinds of people should be locked up, just because they waste the time and effort of everyone around them (heck, we aren't even around him, technically, and he still wants to ruin our lives [or our break times at least]).

[EDIT]
god i wish we could meet guys like this in person, and then SHUT THEM UP the way dan henderson shut up michael bisping.
(btw, anyone here who watched UFC100? that was just too much for me. i almost sobbed because of so much joy. best knock out - no - best KTFO ever.)

well, looking at his methodology, I am reminded of this:

Aronra has a good answer to any methodology but the right one (in science, and by extension, history)

I rarely post at the TWC (3 posts) but felt inclined to do so (and so I did). Disrespect of the hardworking EB team is illogical. If you don't like something about the mod, change it..you can make a minimod out of it and ask people to download it out of free will.

From I know, hoplites do carry swords, but they rarely used it. Anyway, if u include them, they'll turn into damm hypastists who switch to swords in 15 seconds. Urgh!

[Watchman]

All spearmen carried sidearms for backup (spear-shafts tended to break sooner or later) and close combat where the spear was useless. Doesn't mean there's much point in putting them in the game, not in the least given the aforementioned annoyances with the weapon switching.
Plus it'd mesh kinda poorly and inconsistently with other spearmen that also have for example precursor javelins (eg. the Thureophoroi) and blatantly obviously carry swords on their hips too...

[satalexton]

OT question, how does one throw javalins when one hand's clutching the bundle, and the other holding the spear?

I rarely post there too! Is it just me or are majority of EB threads here on the Guild?

Ugh, I thought that was so brutal and excessive. Totally unnecessary and unsportsmanlike in my opinion.

Please don't tell me you approved of Lesnar's performance, too...
