    Crests are not supposed to be worn by every single Spartan soldier. Only for officers of each pentekostye, and an transverse crest for the Polemarch..

    Crests had the same function as the stars on officers' uniforms these days. As well as the function of quickly identifying friend from foe, similar to the IFF systems in modern fighterjets.

    From this junior member...

    I finally read through this thread (took several hours). There are some incredibly talented individuals working on this project...

    My main reason for visiting the Org these days is to check on the progress of this Mod. In fact, Europa Barbarorum inspired me to join and begin posting!

    Astonishing work folks, astonishing. I hope you all have resumes submitted to developers. It takes true individual dedication to effectively contribute to this massive and complex undertaking with no monetary compensation.

    Europa Barbarorum is stirring up anticipation for higher standards in gaming production from this gamer. I hope CA is paying serious attention to the modding community and the potential modding has for their target markets.

    Please continue with your impressive labors. I think I'll begin to look into modding myself (despite a 40+hr work week and full time university study).

    Warmest regards,

    Thank you indeed for your kind words.

    I think I speak in name of the whole team when I say that, although this project has always been approached more as a way to make ourselves happy, when playing RTW, than for any recognition, we always apreciate when people demonstrate such interest for the MOD.

    I hope we can make all people's expectations more than fulfilled...

    Having read through this entire thread I must say I'm very impressed with the work you guys are doing. Very professional work indeed!
    I really only have one thing to question and that is the physical fitness appearance of some of the units with bare chest...
    Particularly the abs of some barbarian units look really really big.. Maybe tone the muscles down a bit so they don't all look like they're pumped up on steroids?
    Maybe fatten some of those units up just a bit too? I mean, even for present day soldiers it's not very smart to get rid of all your body fat as that will make your body get cold very fast when you're in the field, so imagine how it must be for those Gauls in the winter... :p

    Retouched PROMETHEUS's Numidian units and reskinned the Numidian Slinger:

    Numidian Cavalry (removed harness on the horse and minor touches in the tunic and shield):




    Numidian Javelinmen (minor touches in the tunic and shield):




    Numidian Slingers (new skin reworked from PROMETHEUS's Numidian Javelinmen skin):

    Nice, indeed.

    I was getting worried that you guys weren't going to post any more screenshots!

    Thanks!

    I think you should add beard to them (slightly, as on my avatar's pic ). 'Cause on Numidians coins and on Roman depictions Numidians always have beard.

    Do you plan on naming the units things like Northern Warband, Liby-Phoenician Heavy Infantry and Iberian Infantry or something closer to what the Guals or Carths would actually have referred to them as? Maybe just 'Heavy Spearman' in whatever lang you're using for Carth (I'd guess Hebrew).

    Are you sure? Most of this graphical work was based on this:
