    Default units officials (centurions and others)

    hi , i dont know is this very important but , i believe that this can make the game more realistic... why only advanced units have a centurion or someone who carry the flag , but , for examples , hoplites , spartans and others dont have anyone! , so , its some mod or something to give all the units a centurion ??? or unit comander????

    They look cool.
    I pledge allegiance to the underworld One nation under dog,There of which I stand alone,A face in the crowdUnsung, against the mold
    Without a doubt
    Singled out
    The only way I know

    Stepped out of the line,Like a sheep runs from the herd
    Marching out of time,To my own beat now
    The only way I know

    One light, one mind,Flashing in the dark
    Blinded by the silence of a thousand broken hearts

    "For crying out loud" she screamed unto me
    A free for all,Screw 'em all
    You are your own sight

    I want to be the minority,I don't need your authority
    Down with the moral majority,I want to be the minority

    Because they have a centurion (officer) and a centuries signifier (NCO). This was similar to the legions eagle but each century in a cohort had one and it was this that they would rally around. The Romans seem to be the only factions with 2 officers in their units though.

    Is it me or are you picking on Medieval Asassin. Well I guess the rules do'nt apply here when one gets flamed in such a manner.

    I'm a bit miffed that Carthage doesn't have officers, at least for their 'home grown' units like Poeni Infantry and Sacred Band Infantry.

    Don't underestimate the effect of the officers and bannermen. They are quite powerful warriors in their own right, having 2 HP each.

    So a centurion for a unit of Urban Infantry is about the most powerful man in the game. And the best part about them... They regenerate.
