    Just out of curiosity;
    In this era, falcata -like swords like this weren't the most popular in the area?
    The Yound Judean swordsmen are equipped with regulat shortswords...

    Default a few corrections

    there are few obvious historical errors.
    starting with the shields:
    the shield with the flag of modern state of israel is realy unreliable...
    the existance of the star of david is ok-it was a charm of defence,but the colours of blue and white did not have any meaning at the time.even when thous colours gained meaning,it was not a national one-only as a part of the religous robes(talit and tzitzit).use a Bronze shiled with a black or red star of david.
    the hebrew writing is also not in its place.you used modern hebrew writing.it is originally an aramaic writing,and the hebrews only learned it after the babilonian exile.instead,use anciant hebrew writing.it is very similar to the Phoenician alphabet.
    here is the wikipidia page:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paleo-Hebrew_alphabet
    you can find the alphabet there.
    the name יהוה is consisted of yud,hey,vav,hey written from right to left.
    by the way,it is more likely that they would use the magen david as a symbol of godly protection,instead of writing the actual name on war-tools...
    but its ok as long as you change the alphabet.
    and the Pancratium is upside-down...
    a lion would be the best symbol to put on a shield.
    now too the units:
    there is no evidance that eather judah or israel used cavalary.
    in fact, the kingdom of israel, whose army was probably built just like judah's,brought 2000 chariots and 10000 men to the battle of carcar-the greatest number of chariot in the alliance of the 12 coastal kings,that included egypt,aram and every indipandent kingdom in the western neer east(judah,edom,amon and moab were probabley under israelite control).they brought no horses.if they had had any horses they would have sent them.aram damascuss sent 1200 horsemen,hamath sent 700,even the arabs sent some camels...the israelites? -none. also,light cavalary these days would mainly be consisted of archers,much like the chariots.maby the iranian elam and persia used speer cavalay,i dont think canaanites did.
    the swords that were in use were Khopesh,and a small sword with only one sharp side(not the double bladed sword you used).
