    AFAIK the Pontos Hetairoi were used for the first time after the Hellenistic ones dissapeared entirely.... So they wouldn't be the same, but just simmilar

    So, at least they should have their stats as high as the Hetairoi Bodyguards of AS and Ptolies, that's what I think.

    What you think is not necessarily what the stats say. They may not have the same armour as the Hetairoi of other factions. I don't know if we will be able to change anything for a bug release, but you are more than welcome to change the stats yourself.

    Foot, what would you say are the most accurate stats?

    I think, the late Pontos BG are just replica for the original Hetairoi, and for that reason, they are logically less effective, and hence "downgraded" rather than updated...

    The funny is that they are quiet capable against the Companions.

    just don't forget the stat-boosting command stars..... so 7 star Pontos FM could easily dispatch 2 star AS FM.....
