    That's great! Thank you quite a bunch.
    Edit: might you have a link to the other source, or a reference if not a website. I try to keep track all sources I use. Makes it easier to awnser questions in the future and perhaps for further reference. Thank you very much for your help.

    Its the website Elmetiacos provided. plus, I foud a txt file of Sabaean lexicon on the internet (a google search). I can give ye a webite, but I have to find it again (I don't keep records like I'm supposed to).

    but I'll get it for you, if I can find it again.

    EDIT:Finally found it: http://nlp.amharic.org/resources/rel...s-20080421.txt
    I just found these too:
    http://www.telefonica.net/web2/aulao...SEM.10ENSA.pdf (Its a bibliography, but Its got info in it)
    http://www.bartleby.com/61/10.html (Its proto semetic, but lays down some common rules)

    I was going to prepare the info I had by yesterday, but I ran into RL, and www.kronoskaf.com's labor shortages (I need to mae articles in place of my boss).

    I will compare the sabaean glossary to Akkadian, Arabic, and Amharic (I'll need to lear Amharic). And If anyone knwlegeable in Hebrew wishes to help, PM me.

    my 4 year old modding project--nearing completion: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=219506 (if you wanna help, join me).

    tired of ridiculous trouble with walking animations? then you need my brand newmotion capture for the common man!

    Will our new Sab'yns be able to recruit Arab infantrymen and Bedouin Tribesmen.
    Was that your brother I killed, you all look alike to me.
    My Saka's shall run over you until our arrows are in your back, not even the great Selukid king could stand against us and now our great empire stretches from The great homelands to their precious Selukia.

    If that was a question, then yes, they should. but they are nothing like the infantry you are thinking of...

    besides, they already reruit Arabian auxiliaries, so why change the unit roster? (though they seriously need to lose the javelins)...
