    actually the "looks" of units is always debatable. Thus i never judge Ca for being inaccurate by its skins. It't the units themselves that i care about.

    And if you look at the post above you will see that this unit is probably accurate. Again, i dont really know enough about roman saddles to know, but as I said the skins are always the artist impression and they cant possibly be 100% accurate, though these are possibly very accurate, as their maker Prometheus knows what he is doing.

    I believ it is rather ironic that people know more about me than i do. Did i every complain about a units skin saying its not accurate? I think not.

    Bob,

    the ai is more important and really ahistorical units dont bother me that much. People trying to argue the priest fighting is realistic does bother me. But then again thats not even what this thread is about though most people seem to be trying to get revenge for that thread here.

    I still have seen very few people post their opnions about this unit, as it seems most people find it funner to flame me or assume things that i never said.

    You're right, this thread does seem to have gone a bit off-topic (and I suppose I am partly responsible for that, so sorry). If you got the impression that I was one of those trying to flame you then I apologise, it certainly wasn't my intention.

    So back to the Roman Comitatenes (which is what this thread is about, after all).

    I quite like the skin. It's not as nice as say, the Roman legionaries but it's still pretty good.

    Marcellus you certainly werent flamming me as most of your post seemed to be agreeing with me and dont worry about you taking this thread off topic. Ever since the first page people have been more intent on attacking my opinion than giving their own. I would be pleased if this stopped and am happy to go on with the thread.



    Im guessing this unit is supposed to look "barbarian" as that is what was happening to the roman army.
