hidden units

[AqD]

Just found and restored some hidden units in RTR PE 1.9:

Hippeis Xystophoroi (Greek Heavy Cavalry):



Look like companion cavalry, with non-crested heavy horse and a lance as long as Seleucid Xystophoroi's.

Find the following line (there are 2 of them, so do the following steps twice - for stabls and elite stables):

recruit "greek medium cavalry"  0  requires factions { greek_cities, } and building_present_min_level barracks_greek_cities muster_field

Duplicate it, and change "greek medium cavalry" to "greek heavy cavalry", and "muster_field" to "militia_barracks".

Hetairoi Hoplitai (Greek Infantry General):



Similar to elite hoplite. I use SigniferOne's hoplite animation rather than spearman animation - you could see they hold the spear high before and during battle. And this unit already has entries in DMB & text descriptions.

Kataphractoi (Pontus):


I wonder if those units exist in previous versions like RTR 6 or Gold? (those skins are definitely not direct copies from vanilla)

They`re not hidden, they`re discarded units whose graphic files have were not removed from the pack. They`re not in RTR 6 Gold either. RTRPE didn`t changed anything in this regard.
