    Impossible to do. No way to differentiate animations within a unit with any consistency.

    Plus that idea Rome uses has to be one of the more dodgier looking concepts I've seen in a while. It's not like those battle scenes are exactly marvels of choreography or historical reconstrution anyway...

    You must admit that it's better than then cave trolls and orcs/immortals from 300. All things considered, I thought the battle scenes from Rome were far superior to most of Hollywood's. Shame there weren't more.

    Granted, that maniple animation is based on a new theory that I've only seen in one new book. Shoot me, I forgot the name. But it makes more sense than the whack-a-mole theory with the first and second lines moving up and down. In reality, they probably couldn't maintain that order without getting the runs from the stress.

    Well yeah, but being smarter than an earthworm doesn't yet make a hamster a particularly clever animal if you know what I mean. Doesn't require much.
