Except for the mullets and the teeths at the waist it is a very historical unit (just look at Trajan's column or if you want more information read the book from Speidel), although it is rather unlikely that Wodan was so important at the beginning of the EB-timeframe. Tiwaz or Fraujon were the more important germanic gods.
After reading the comments of blitz and Handsome Viking i really hope that a unit like this (preferable with a wolf cloak) will be implemented in 1.1
The hairstyle is unique and the trousers have a nice look of fur.
The new unit should be called Wargoz and should be equipped with sword, shield and throwing spear.
Those wolf-warriors lived outside the germanic community and were sworn brothers in arms, who lived only for war and ended their kinship with their tribes. Definately a highly capable and elite germanic unit.
For my part i would prefer them as very rare mercenaries.
A unique and very rare unit, but i really hope for EB 1.1.
Talking about germanic units, we should also hope to see the Bear-Warriors too, which will perhaps make up a worthy opponent for the famed naked celts on drugs.
