Actually I deleted for error overwriting this model , so I will remake but I was undecise between this Thraex wich is close to the one CA made and instead the retiarius .... difficult task to make the net ......

IMO, you shouldn't make the Retiarius. It will be very dificult to make the net, specially because we can't remake the animation. I would prefer the Thraex. But that is up to you.

or may be we could add the Scissor Gladiator to replace the arcani , actually they look very similar about for the cape .... even if the Arcani where really an exhisting unit in ancienRome , they where more a secret policethan a military unit so could be used to add a fourth gladiator unit ......so a rebel army of gladiators will ave

No. No Arcanii. No Scissor Gladiator. Only the ones that are there. Besides the Arcanii has been deleted from the files.

Ranika is very correct when commenting on unit space. The generic units, like siege engines and peasents, will be condensed in a single unit with several faction textures. We can have 300 max units, being 268 occupied in vanilla RTW. Just from deleting ahistorical and duplicates I'll reduce occupied slots to about 230 (I'm doing that for Alpha 0.3 as I write this post). Since a lot of the units are being remade from the ground up, like PSYCHO V's warbands, a lot of the "new" units won't even ocuppy unit space. So, on an crude estimate, we'll have about 70 free slots for new units, which means that we'll be able to add several new ones per faction (depending also on the number of factions available).

I would say that for the romans should be


early legion to be redraw like the Caesar ones


the actual early legion to be named medium and the segmenta heavy since they where both used at the same time in the early empire......

temporary version of the Equites....


final version

[PSYCHO V]

Finally some realistic looking equites! Nice job Prom!

Is it possible to thin out and reduce the height of, the helmet train..thingy on top the helmet?

[Ranika]

The Equites look great, but should the tadh be so thick? Wouldn't it be rather stringy or thinner? (What's the English word? Is it Tadh? The hair that comes from the helmet, that thing).

OT: Pyscho V, thanks for the Briton input. Please clean out your PMs when you get a chance, and everyone interested check the Briton Group's thread for a very, very preliminary list (I expect many rewrites/removals, but have to start somewhere).
