idea/wip: heavy ligurian infantry

[Aleksander the Average]

I was thinking that ligurian cavalry would look great dismounted as an early auxilium. has anyone done this? - if not what do you guys think of the idea?

They already exist.

They already exist.

i don't believe they exist with the chain shirt over their traditional clothing as infantry.

I would like to see the Ligurian Infantry reskinned with armor but perhaps that is ahistorical? Probably just a light mail shirt and the same defense stats as Celto-Hellenic or Massilian Hoplites.

well in the description of the unit, it says that they often adopted celtic/gallic equipment (after being "driven out of the po valley" or something like that). i imagine that for wealthier members of ligurian society, that would include celtic/gallic style chain shirts.

i've begun to make the unit. if anyone wants to write a description i'll be happy to throw that in when i upload as well.
