Paeninsula Italica previews

**Luciano B** · 08-21-2006, 22:53

During the last month we released some further faction previews:

- Italiotae, (the Greeks of southern Italy);
- Syracusae;
- The Iapigian factions (Apuli and Messapii);
- Poeni (Carthaginians) of western Sicily.

We started also to add some samples of the regional/mercenary units which will be available in our mod.

Comments and suggestions will be really appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

those campani look great... but are they hoplites or just normal spearmen?

...thanks a lot...

The heavy spearmen would fight in the same combat style of the hoplites; the light spearmen instead would fight in a looser and more flexible formation.
