    Yeah, no I remember about the "must be same skeleton" rule. I was hoping the EB was able to get beyond that.

    But then again... all the spearmen that are well enough equiped to have a secondary sword are Graeco-Roman ones who would be using a thrusting gladius or kopis anyway. The Eastern spearmen were never so well endowed as to have swords long enough for slashing, neither were the Gallic and Germanic spearmen.
    The Western wind carries with it the scent of triumph...

    Ah, but you forget the Eastern spearmen who have bows and spears.

    What is the problem is: without phalanx mode, if a unit has sword+spear it CTDs.

    i would like to see an eastern spearman use his spear with an animation for firing a bow... now that would be kool.

    Spear and bow would work, of course, just like the omnipresent sword/dagger and bow/sling/javelin of vanilla, provided the bow is the primary weapon.

    Randy Kapp, how the heck do you have like 20 different siggys everytime I see you post?

    Do you just make up a new one every time you post, or what?
