    German axe units...like the worgoz from EB.....the one with the wolfhead helmet.
    That would be cool.

    Galatian wildmen....like the gesatae.
    Alexander the great reported in 326BC india,that his men where afraid to go into the caves...because of the dragons living there
    Even Herodotus wrote...that he saw wingend serpents in arabia.
    The word Dinosaur wasn't in the english dictonary untill 1860...WHY??
    Because now we question the existence of god...Thats exactly what the elite(nwo,bohemian club,bilderberg group and all the other sunworhippers) want.
    Hollywood,the music and game industry are now ruled by the illuminati.Just check how many times you see a pyramid(satanic symbol),or 1 eye(the all-seeing eye of horus=satanic symbol),a checkered black and white floor or walls(masonic floor) in games,movies and cd covers.They hide messages in there products.
    And dont accept the FEMA chip....its the mark of the beast

    How about Machimoi warriors with thureo and small axe? And with javelins or spears as primary weapon?


    BTW I'm asking for the famous VARIAGMOD units now

    Chionite heavy cavalry. What?!

    Have you made any nubians yet? Your map probably doesn`t go that south to implement a meroitic kingdom, but they could be available as mercenaries for the ptolemaics.

    Don't run too far, you will have to return the same distance.

    When you show your strength, you'll find a company of those who want to steal it from you, but your weakness, you'll be all alone with it.

    There are nubians! They were obscure mercs in RTR but made regular AOR in my mod!

    A nubian kingdom would be great! I'll try to add that when RTR VII map is released




    oh but what's Chionite heavy cavalry?? Any pic or text descriptions?

    Have you also made new skins/models for them or are they the exact ones from RTR(i.e. new skin for the vanilla model)?

    Honestly I was thinking about adding them to my game too. I think that part of the map is underrepresented in most mods(that cover it). Even the native revolts during the ptolemaic rule that resulted in a phraonic state around Thebes are a fascinating development imo. Especially if it`s true that they got military support from the kingdom of Meroe.
    And btw, Montvert has a title on the reformed ptolemaic armies which also includes pictures of a number of statuettes and other depictions of nubian soldiers. All have descriptions and some are olso used for drawings or color illustrations(one actually) so it`s one of the best sources for nubian warriors of this timeframe.
    oh but what's Chionite heavy cavalry??
    They`re the huns that dominated the steppes on the sassanids` north-eastern borders. Obviously they have no place in your mod. I was kidding about it.

    Egyptians lacks heavy non-spear infantry units... Seleucids have galatian swordsmen, but Ptolemaics still need something similar. That's why I remembered of vanilla's desert axemen unit.

    How about Indian Heavy Infantry (perhaps like EB's Guild Infantry), Belgae units, generally more barbarian units (perhaps Pannonians, or did they not have their own units?), and do you have Thorakitai? Babylonian Spearmen and Median Cavalry and Ionian Hoplites? (I don't know if Ionian Hoplites actually existed)

    - Indians are in part of Indo-Greek units planned for next verison (may be postponed again)
    - I dunno about belgae and pannonians. Can you show some pics?
    - Babylonian Spearmen were replaced by Kardaka hoplites, and Median cavalry is already included (the Median Lancer in Seleucid preview)
    - Reformed ionian hoplites and other hellenistic cavalry in asia will be added in next version, to expand the Pontus roster and late-period Parthian roster.

    I don't know about the Pannonians either, but EB has Belgae units, as will RS2 (check out the preview: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=155960)

    Oh... the thing I know about it, is that VARIAGMOD units are a bit laggy since they use too much vertex. So be warned about this. Don't use unlimited_men_on_the_battlefield feature

    Thats the prob with older machines...the units are looking better and better...and the battles more sluggish.
    I have to upgrade my rig too.

    Btw...the Egyptian axeman where the best looking vanilla unit i think.cant remember them properly
    Alexander the great reported in 326BC india,that his men where afraid to go into the caves...because of the dragons living there
    Even Herodotus wrote...that he saw wingend serpents in arabia.
    The word Dinosaur wasn't in the english dictonary untill 1860...WHY??
    Because now we question the existence of god...Thats exactly what the elite(nwo,bohemian club,bilderberg group and all the other sunworhippers) want.
    Hollywood,the music and game industry are now ruled by the illuminati.Just check how many times you see a pyramid(satanic symbol),or 1 eye(the all-seeing eye of horus=satanic symbol),a checkered black and white floor or walls(masonic floor) in games,movies and cd covers.They hide messages in there products.

    Some region-specific Greek units? Like Theban Sacred Band or Spartan Hoplites or Corinthian Triremes?

    Theban Sacred Band were already destroyed! Spartan hoplites are there in RTR; though it'd be nice to have reformed spartan army as in RS2.....
