The coolest looking unit?

Ohhh... I have a love for the Companions. Those feathered helmets are just too cool.

In infantry I simply can't ignore the Samnites. So clean and simple, yet they have the coolest shield.

i go for the Carthaginian Gvarde Soldiers they look like the myrmidons of troy

Armoured Hoplites get my vote, I loved a nice full stack army of those backed by some of the sorry arse Greek calvery & some of their weak archers.

infantry: uh armored hoplites or pionin spearmen or urbans...i can't chose
cavalry the choice is clear cut companion cavalry

I mentioned the Samnites, who I more or less consider Roman as they can only be recruited in Roman lands and their description mentions that they often would fight for the Romans. So while it isn't a Roman Roman unit, it is along the lines of the Auxilia I think.
