    Well apparently, the 'Gauls', inventors of soap, found hair below the head unclean and so shaved it off... So no chest hair i think might be accurate... Except for those drug abusing fanatic psychopaths who fight with it all hanging out... I wouldn't think they cared very much for cleanliness...

    By the way, how are the .com forums since your kid moderator banned my IP, Psycho?

    Quite right there mate, the Gauls would shave every part of their body bar their head / face. Very different to other peoples like the Germans etc

    Ah nothing really... To be honest i can't even remember... Wait... I made a thread in the off topic forum, then i came back to make a post in that thread which i spent rather a long time typing... Only to find that when i clicked submit reply my post had been moved to another forum which obviously i was outraged at, me having a short temper and all and also i didn't believe that it was just to move my thread, twas in the right forum... People over there seem to have fun provoking me to see what happens, obviously something which Mablung decided he would do so he could ban me and my IP...

    No matter though, i'd had enough with that place anyway... I spend lots of my time in the help forum typing long and detailed responses to help people with problems they're having in the game, even sometimes taking screenshots to make my explanation more easy to understand, and the thanks i get from the rest of the 'regulars' there is to provoke me, get me banned and then nip over to Ducks forum and have a good laugh about it...

    On topic anyhow i just thought i'd congratulate you on whatever part you had in making EB, i've been enjoying it immensely for the past few days and i see myself enjoying it for a long time to come... Most definately the best mod i've encountered for the game so far and i truly believe that unless some other mod team spend 2 years on developing a mod then EB will always be the top banana of mods for RTW.

    Dayve, stop displaying yourself as a victim.
    you were banned 5 times! and that was only due to your own inappropriate behaviour. stop blaming others.

    oh yeah sorry, 4 bans, 5 accounts.
    i don't know what i should be grateful for Dayve. there are plenty of people that were just as helpful, if not more.

    for every helpful post (tbh, i never witnessed a single one myself) you made 3 abusive and/or inflamatory posts.

    you can't expect to be allowed to behave the way you want just because you gave somebody a link to unlock all the factions in RTW.

    you weren't a valuable addition to the community, you were a burden, since many threads derailed (like this one) thanks to your behaviour and bad attitude. you know, it really doesn't hurt to respect people.

    i will now lay off and let the thread go back on-topic, and i hope you will too Dayve.

    sorry

    To the contrary, Gaesatae were high class mercenaries; a warrior elite who had likely already had copious experience in their youth as regular soldiers. They weren't just random fanatics, they were skilled, very wealthy veterans. Their torcs and bangles were said by Romans to often be made of gold or silver, rather than bronze, copper, or iron; such expensive jewelry was usually the realm of aristocracy or noblity. In their off time, they would live rather luxurious lives, and surely had a concern for their cleanliness.

    It is unnerving this concerns so many. If you really want to know, I suppose, yes, most likely, they would remove all body hair, including there, since they considered it all dirty.

    i don't think people really care that much.

    anyhow, i now know where the expression of "having big balls" comes from, and why it means that one is brave.

    those cojones are truly grande.

    It's not an optional skin as such...it's all the one skin but uses alphas. There will be an option in the 'Options' menu for Historically accurate units.

    And Dayve... best to leave the moderating topic alone.

    Wow! Those screenshots are beautiful! The attention to detail is superb!

    I'll be sure to download the mod once my broadband cap is reset...which is another two weeks

    I had left it alone, twas Mablung who brought it up again...

    And i have no idea what you mean by Alphas... I read something about you guys releasing an optional something or other for those poor sould who are offended or corrupted by it or something... I just assumed it was an optional skin you could download to replace the current naked one...

    Thanks..just let it lie. If you have a prob, PM us mods over at the .com. Not appropriate here.

    Its a graphical 'channel' that allows EB to provide a huge array of varied looking units using the same model. To my knowledge, EB has exploited the alpha channel ability more than any other mod to date. For eg. many of those previous shots I posted were the same model / different skins using alphas to change the shape / look of the model.

    Which is one of the reasons why EB has taken so long to get to this point.
