Legionary attack

[CashMunny]

Are we going on a road trip Vartan?

Doubtful, but I'll let you take a one way ride in my Astrovan if you like.

Stellar, RV, road trip, Gabriela, Astrovan. What the hell is going on? Where are my legions?! GIVE IT BACK!

i agree with xzgab i think when you do the legionaries you already know a lot about them so you want to be fair for others but in the spartatia hoplitai we know and still is overrated, historically they werent the best infantry remeber that the register about the greeks is mostly written by greeks that makes them overrated and no acuraccy also ive looking about battles and they spartans lost a lot of battles they propose ceasefires 7!!!!!! times to Athens and the plague of atenas was a hit of luck for them , then in the corintos league they lost 2 of the most famous battles of Mantinea (362 a. C.) and leuctra 371 a. C. especially in leuctra the others cities kick their spartan ass !! so the corintos people werent trained a lifetime to be a soldier and they beat them! then i think if the arverni and the auedui have solduros and great man v man and the roman legionaries conquer them , doesnt that mean that the legionares are better? and iam only sayin this about the evocata and the cohors beacues i think the polybian and others are fair enought ! (except the velites and the leves) but infantry is fair soo i think you maybe reconsider about the cohors just a 2 points more in the cohors and 3 in the evocata doesnt make that the game were more easiest for the romans jus its more realistic ......... dont be angry is just my opinion great work eb team !!!

The Spartiates always had the problem of numerical inferiority doe to their extremely hierarchical society. This means they could ill afford losing even a few of their citizen warriors, which in turn means that the easiest way to get a ceasefire or other favourable conditions from them would probably have been to capture a lot of Spartans and hold them hostage in a secure place.
It is not difficult to see that they were very different from the Romans, who favoured a concept of "mass heavy infantry of reasonable quality and tactical versatility" instead of the usual doctrine. Spartan Hoplites, OTOH, would have been more similar to the Gallic Solduroi and other elites than to Roman troops.
Spartan losses do not necessarily say anything about their martial abilities or those of their opponents, but rather tell us a lot about the circumstances around them. Such as: more practical concepts of society, superior strategies, innovative tactics, cleverly wrought alliances, numerical superiority, or simply more money. Remember, wars are not only won on the battlefield or by individual martial prowess. There are many other factors there. Armies of superior quality have been beaten or forced to withdraw by opponents who had other advantages on their sides.

RV? Aren't attack and defense values automatically updated? Or am I missing the important RV part?

We are talking about the unit cards of the Recruitment Viewer, not those in-game. The latter are indeed always up-to-date; but the former are .jpg's that date back to 2007.

I could never manage to see my Recruitment Viewer unit cards.

First, I would like to get to know you.

I mean, first, you have to install the old 1.0 cards before reinstalling 1.1.

Bugger. Can't someone make a lazy install? Where you get an EB member to your house with a flash drive and installs it for you?

Yes, the most up-to-date RV does not include the unit cards. They are present in the slightly older RV that you can download from the EB website, though. I simply installed both versions, and then copied the unit-card .jpg's of the old RV to the corresponding folder in the new RV.

[moonburn]

the three rv´s i downloaded seem to be very outdated i can´t get the best troops availability altough it might be because i´m having some trouble with the mic´s defenition

[bobbin]

Even the latest RV is pretty out of date.

As in not all of the AORs are up to date?

[Rahl]

There was no big difference of AORs between 1.1 and 1.2. The merc generals have been changed but not much else I think, for AORs the RV is good enough but since the unit cards are much older they're no big help.

[bobbin]

From what I remember the AOR's were fine, it was mostly just things like factions missing units, old names and removed units still being present.

Thanks. I am primarily concerned with the AORs as the AOR jpegs are what I use for the wiki.

Who is this Gabriella? Im just curious...

OT, but If you really want to know, she's actually a fictitious person that I invented.

[xzGAB]

So is there anyway to get a updated compilation of all kind of soldiers in EB?

=====================

A fictitious girl?? OMG, you guys have a real need for girlfriends...

She is a character in an upcoming video game of ours.

and you mean like a unit list?

[xzGAB]

Yes, I'd like to have a updated unit list. I need to know where i find good local soldiers.

Use the recruitment viewer software. It's pretty wonderful.

[Pedro]

if someone wants an EDU modified ask me

[Randal]

The recruitment viewer is best for finding where you can recruit soldiers, but this site is what you need to see if they are any good. It has the most up-to-date and complete unit stats that I know of.

The RV is my problem, it has outdated cards. I want a updated "thing" to see all soldiers.

Do you really need to see their pictures? lol. There are two places for stats that I know of. The EDU and the Heimstatt website that Randal mentioned. EDU is the only one guaranteed to be up to date.
