The unit list at the com got finally updated but I couldn't figure out how to give the link to the 3D unit... Sorry for that.

I just wanted to post this.

They look good as they should. Most pikemen were citizens.

Very nice indeed. Must say, I've been liking most of these unit previews quite a bit, aesthetically speaking. I wonder what inaccuracies will be picked apart for this unit... it's always interesting seeing those conversations come up after seeing a unit and liking it. Then BOOM, his shirt tail is hanging at the wrong angle.

pretty cool, i think the knights look the coolest though

They look good!

But I'm more curious about how they behave gameplay wise: do they use the old RTW phalanx mode, and if so how much has it changed?

I think its more likely they'll act like Triarii, with a very tight formation, but not an actual phalanx. Thats just speculation of course
