    Default A little EB humor, plus a cool unit image

    Here are a few EB units together. Every one of these is different, but these are by no means all of them - there are tons more I couldn't find clean images of (without stuff in the background I could easily crop away). It's not really the right size for a background yet, but it's too messy to be one anyway probably. Just thought some folks might find it interesting. We did just win the Best Unit Art Award over at the TWC awards a few days ago.


    Working on that in high detail - might make a poster out of it.
    And some possible titles (with some help from the team):

    Europa Barbarorum: Sticking People with Sharp Objects Since January 2004
    Europa Barbarorum: Who do you want to stick with a sharp object today?
    Europa Barbarorum: Who do you want to invade today?
    Europa Barbarorum: We stick more people with sharp objects before 8AM than most people do all day
    Europa Barbarorum: Quis Tuus Pater Est?
    Europa Barbarorum: Bringing the Ancient World to Your Spleen Since January 2004
    Europa Barbarorum: (note: the people pictured here do *not* get along well with others)
    Europa Barbarorum: If at all possible, involve a Gaesatae
    Europa Barbarorum: No Pirates, No Cowboys, No Ninjas - 143% Awesome
    Europa Barbarorum: Have you buried your valuable objects today?
    Europa Barbarorum: Got Spear?
    Europa Barbarorum: Head for the mountains. No seriously... Oh god! Head for the mountains now!
    Europa Barbaorurm: What is best in life? To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentation of their women.
    Europa Barbarorum: What can barbarian do for you?

    (I realize "whom" (aka "quem/quos") is the proper declined form in number 2 and 3, but doesn't feel right here, so I'll change it to the alternative "who".)

    Remember, Chuck Norris hit Bruce Lee with a round house kick that was so powerful it split him in two, and one half became Jet Li and the other became Jackie Chan.

    ---------------------------------------

    That is an awesome pic by the way. But in my quick scan of it, I couldn't find any Pedites Extraordinarii (though there were Samnite Heavy Mercenaries, but those just aren't the same).

    We got assassins in ninja gear. Bruce Lee in ninja gear = :D


    In "Return of the Dragon" (aka Way of the Dragon), Bruce Lee > Chuck Norris

    In real life fighting, Bruce Lee > Chuck Norris (letter of apology incident)

    In philosophy, Bruce Lee > Chuck Norris

    Truth is that life is more beautifull with EB

    Pretty sure I took them all out of our unit screenshot thread and our unit info images. Which one are you talking about?

    Fondor, I let one slip in there that hasn't been shown yet. It's not totally done yet, but I'm not gonna say what it is either.

    The other one we did show already I'm pretty sure, but it was in an irregular way - with the concept art drawing of it at the same time.

    One is Rob's lesser general for carthage. Should be in the game I think.

    Dunno CA provided the particular genre and lets these games be modded not to mention worked very hrd also. But EB still gets points for coolness.
