    @Ludens, thanks a lot for the explication, now understand why cavalry has not that collision mass factor, regarding the lethality think, i thought it was better when lower cause in the description there is written: "Min delay between attacks (in 1/10th of a second)" but im not good in maths

    @Arkatreide like very much the new format with the hearts

    These cards have made me wish that I could read a numerical morale in the game, rather than just see "very good morale".

    Actually, if you count correctly the min delay thingy is not the last entry but the one just before. Lethality was only introduced after patch 1.2(?) so as to slow down the overall kill rate (and thus speed) of the battles, but the description for it was not added to the EDU.

    Thanks. I am playing around with some other icons right now - in particular the 'wedge' and 'testudo' symbols.

    Love the new version of the cards! I can see myself printing them all off and using them as a reference when I am in battle, so I can make better strategic decisions. I was interested to see the stats for peltastai, I always considered them as little better than akontistai, but it appears they are much better...

    BTW you have missed the 'B' in 'better armed' for the Argyraspidai.

    at this point i think it should be nice to have a comparative tabula of (for example) skirmishers:

    Roman Leves, Velites, Akontistai, Peltasts, numidian javelimen etc

    it could be divided in various theme collections, "the skirmishers collection cards", "the phalanx collection", "the cavalry collection", a "General's bodyguards golden collection" etc.

    It's nice to see all the important attributes of an unit in a compact form; it allows comparing the units quickly and easily. I'd like to see more of these.
