I guess the Sabaean Nobles will be wielding a bow instead of the javelins.
Also, Goidils will probably only have Vellinica-style troops![]()

full agree here, even if their outfit isnt explicitly wrong it looks so dreadfully boring and wrong :D a subject that has always bothered me^^oh and artillery i hope at least looks better, more like the pretty unit cards at least. are Artillery not allowed to have officers in the EDU? some more distinguished looking dudes, like engineers and officers would look nice compared to literally a pack of peasants moving and operating the most advanced war fighting technology available to my kingdom and the world.

Regional units are one of the many things that makes EB amazing...
No idea which new ones will be included and I love surprises :D
well if no unit limit then can we expect the return of the corinthian hoplites \o i mean that unit was composed of the famous corinthian bussinessman´s a kind of elite pimp unit :X
Even though I'd love to see them, and hell even each poleis hoplitai, iirc corinthian were rather regular ones, they sure had ethos, but I mean the classical ones depict them very well imo...
As for those of a later period the Thorakitai version has that covered too...
i think it'd be really swell to showcase at least some of the most famous hoplites as regionals or at least special skins. just 'hoplitai' units from Syracuse to Thebes would just be really bland and not do justice to the variety at least in ethos, shield design culture, etc of the various regional hoplites.
who doesn't love the brave defenders from;
Massilia
Syracusa
Sparta
The Red Sea coast
?
its a way to cheat past the culture and faction limit as well ^_^
