Thread: Where are the ancillary pics taken from?

    Default Where are the ancillary pics taken from?

    I've been a lurker around this forum for a year or so but only recently got my act together and starting posting....

    Anyway, where are the ancillary pictures taken from? The "Spear Carrier" ancillary you can get playing as Makedonia (and probably more Hellenic factions) looks an awful lot like Antigonos Monopthalmos from Oliver Stone's Alexander....

    Also, the Heorte Poleos (Local Festival) building picture for the Ptolemaioi also looks like a screen from Alexander - the Gardens of Babylon, am I correct?

    Just curious.

    the garrison pic is a vanilla screen I think.

    Team members such as Teleklos Archelaou collected the UI pictures from various sources. Many come from historical movies.

    A contest should be made, like posting he picture of an ancilliary and trying to guess where does it come from (picture, drawing or movie). The one that guesses it right first gets to choose the next ancilliary to be guessed.
