    so the last one, is that a reskin or a new unit, because it looks pretty different from the old unit by the same name...

    ps--they all look great!

    So somewhere along the line the Indo-Greek Hoplites got reclassified as peltasts and we got true hoplites as Indo-Greek Hoplites instead. Fascinating.

    Indo-Greek Hoplites of previous previews are now named Indo-Hellenikoi Peltastai...so this new unit is prolly Indo-Hellenikoi Hoplitai now.

    Now your appetites have been sated for a while hopefully

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    We are EB fans. We have an insatiable lust for more information and more updates. You can never hope to quell our demands, although a new EB version release will probably keep us distracted for a while

    RTW, 167 BC: Rome expels Greek philosophers after the Lex Fannia law is passed. This bans the effete and nasty Greek practice of 'philosophy' in favour of more manly, properly Roman pursuits that don't involve quite so much thinking.

    Everybody can, that is the Babylonian Shipri Tukrul Infantry, a regional unit. The name suggests where you can recruit them
