And one of the favorite themes of Ancient Greeks, the fight against the Amazons. Here, one (Myson) has grabbed his girl and is protected by his comrade in Arms.

[tone]

What are these for? Spare ones we're not using?

[swhunter]

I like the A for Athens what you think ?

[Keravnos]

That is what will be used for athens. If you can check the hoplites post you will see that.

@tone, just a place for me to store all shields I have. To be used for the Free Greeks when the time comes.

More coming up...

-for thureoi-

[swhunter]

Great kera !
I am sure Tone and others will find a home for these.

Also these could be very useful for loading screens .

[Keravnos]

neat idea, Swhunter!

Updated. I do take pride in telling you that ALL the shields that are on this thread are either faithful reconstructions from existing pottery/coinage evidence, or the real thing.

[swhunter]

Well one thing for sure we are not going to run out of ideas for designs !
With all these different shields just adds a little more flavoring to this mod.
yes Kera i think it would educate the players with these screenshots of tombs and pottery and statues.
A mix of pics from Spartans , and other Free Greek peoples.
If it doesn't tax the computers..

[Roman_Man#3]

Kera, I hope you don't mind if I add these. They are found here: http://z11.invisionfree.com/Warlords...hp?showtopic=7

Nice - anyone know anything about these - they are described on the legionsix website as Macedonian or Geto-Dacian iron shield fronts - approx 35cm in diameter. It'd be great to be able to use one of these for the Getohellenic hoplite...possibly even the Getai version of the Thracian elite falxman?
