Wow... those irish celts look really cool but also the new hellenic unit are very good and they don't look gay

PS: The Mala Gaeroas new shield looks even better than the old one !!

[The Stranger]

:eek: is the only thing i can say

[Colovion]

I had no idea that that wall even existed! This is what I like to see.

:drool:

[Crazed Rabbit]

Looking very good, indeed.

wall?

well the units look great, i've been a heavy thureophoroi user in RTR, I'm already drouling with the idea of seleucids using them. thureophoroi will perhaps even make archers useless.. (lets hope)

[Urnamma]

Thureophoroi themselves are actually a heavy infantry, so you may find yourself using them a lot more in EB.

Me either! There is a giant wall somewhere that nobody ever told me about? Sheesh. Consider my mind blown.


Brilliant work on everything today guys, but I especially liked the unit descriptions. I drool over screenshots like everyone else, but I do appreciate getting to learn a little bit more than the usual one sentence about the units.

I HOPE you don't mind a little grammatical nitpicking (especially from someone with less-than-perfect grammar himself) but I think this:

"Once the initial force of a missile weapon is dissipated it falls away harmlessly, once the initial force of a melee weapon is dissipated its user pushes harder!"

...should maybe read something like:

"Once the initial force of a missile weapon is dissipated, it falls away harmlessly; once the initial force of a melee weapon is dissipated, its user pushes harder!"

Or something like that, to break up the text a little and make it sound more like someone would say it. Too bad you can't put italics in there.


So I guess this means you're not going to translate all the unit descriptions into their native language too?

[Urnamma]

Very good (although more pics would've been nice )

Sure. :cool







I'll leave you to figure out what they are.

[Simetrical]

Those warhammers look pretty awesome.
