    TPC & Dayve thank you that clarified it I was not aware of this issue as I've never played extensively with hoplites (They were usually my opponent).

    A model question . Whats up with how hoplites hold there spears ? I've seen other mods do over hand spears and they don't have the spear being upside down in the ground thing going on .

    Question Re: Kardaka Arteshtar

    I love EB and all, but I found that I often wonder about that myself...

    Eh, by what I've tried of it the Kardakas work just fine if you add a secondary fs_swordsman animation and stats for shortsword for them. Basically turns them into a lite version of those Armenian royal guard infantry, or the Syracusan hoplites.

    The problem is that they currently use the under-hand animation (They are supposed to replicate hoplite tactics, thus over-hand thrusts are more preferrable), and it is known that giving any secondary weapon in combination would cause problems.

    Uh... the Babylonian spear-and-mace guys and those Hai royal guards with their spear-and-sword combo use underhand spears already. Have used as far as I've seen them in the game. You mean there are more problems involved than the usual "weapon swap" thing all double-armed infantry have to live with ?

    Probably. I don't know, underhand-animations seem to work just fine in combination with secondary weaponry, but I read somewhere that there were issues swapping weapons for hoplite-type units with the overhand-animation. If it is possible to fix, I don't know, all I do know is that it has caused a lot of headache in the internal forums.
