    Default Will every body be the same height

    Will we have giants like the one in the movie 300,or maybe the imp in Game of thrones or will every body be the same height.
    I remember CA staff saying something about soldiers in a unit be taller and shorter etc.
    It would be good if soldiers in a unit were of different skin colour or height.As this is factually correct.

    Not only body but equipment such as shields or spears.

    I remember in Rome 1, that those German Beserkers were really big guys. Would be nice to see different heights among nations again.

    Yes but surely dwarfs existed so why are they never in the game.They are not ****ing unicorns they exist.And a Viking warrior was a dwarf remember he was famous.Any Danes know who he was..Also a unit with a giant would be good.They existed.Could we get a DLC with them.

    Yes different heights in a unit will be hard but CA said they are doing it.I always wanted my Grenediers in Napoleon to be taller than line infantry.As the tallest were chosen..


    Yes I do hope CA are still going to give us units of different heights.Norse and Germanic tribes men are taller than Roman.

    You are absolutely right.
    Soldiers shall hold spears of different lengths for not all spears were made equal.

    Classical writers calculated the northern barbarians as being about six inches taller than the Romans on average, and CA have promised to reflect such height variation in game.

    Meat. They ate meat.

    BTW, I've always thought that "On these shields, boys!" sounds better in that context.

    I think while it may add some more aesthetic quality to the game, ultimately, when your troops are in battle, you're not even going to notice, to be it's pretty irrelevant.

    Pretty much this. This is why I'm not too concerned with the faces and intricacies of historical armor accuracy.
    When I'm playing the game they'll just be a bunch of blobs.
