I think those may be the exception - for certain kinds of high end units/sheilds etc.

Of course. I mean no more green haired Thracians or purple Parthians, or a million other reasons why they shouldn't be there. As for the Romans, I don't know about them, but I assume that they never had seperate colors for the families. But their would be color on any units that would have them, so for the elite Romans or the red cloaks on the Spartans, or whatever.Not on units. But we'll have to have them on flags and on the campaign map.

Well, most of them won't need colours. The Romans will need them because they are all equal in terms of units. That's the biggest exception, because most others will have unique units. What we mean by not having faction colours is that the unit design does not have to obey to the colours of the faction, like in the case of the Parthians. They didn't dressed in pink, as such, their units shouldn't be pink. The rest can have different colours when their units can't be distinguished. Like militia hoplites or peasents. It will depend on faction and unit.Originally Posted by PROMETHEUS

Been thinking ... dangerous I know
I think the Northern Warband may warrant a simple bowl helmet. Thoughts?

Looks good to me, the north did employ helmets more often anyway, it'd be a good nod to that.

Prom: If that's your Alpha, it's huge step in the right direction. Nice work
Re the NW helmets. Based on the right hand side guy. The helmet was quite common in Transalpine Gaul
Can anybody show pictures of Celtiberian warriors? I wonder that they have chain mail.

No the pictures you refer to are about the Athenians archers , a contingent kept by athen during the persian wars and they wore linen cuiras and lion skin .....There is a statue of an hoplite wearing linen armor and lion shaped cap targeting with bow that may be Cretan archer.
About the libyanphoenicians I used a plate and they are right as I made them , armies of the Carthaginian wars by Osprey.....

Well as i told you the situation is foggy but there is no reference that the armoured archers were athenians. They were in athenians side. The lion metal cap propably wasnt a rule and because of its value many scholars say that propably this is rather a hero depicted or a mercenary who could afford it. By the way would it be much trouble to have hoplite units from different greek cities(the basic ones at least) have different ''Episimon'' (sign) on their shields? If its big trouble or consumes unit space forget it. Congratulations for your fine work.
Last request can you post an image of the spartan you develop?

Don't doubt it. After all the Celts were the inventores of mail. It's proven that some of the descendents of Celtic invaders in Iberia had them. Here is one good pic:Originally Posted by Dead Moroz
