Eventually i will be inspired to venture deep into the Mars City Underground. Just admiring the snazzy graphics at the same time i am getting a creepy feeling 1.0 needs a patching. Just a hunch on the little clitches i have seen so far.

NEW UNIT:
A new unit since it we were out, Macedonian Cavalry.
They have spear and sword and no shield. It says that "when used to repeatedly charge enemy units they can have a tremendous cumulative effect". I dont know what that means since they have no stirrups. Unit looks ok i guess.
Superior/ Can Form Wedge

the elmet is weird...and if im not mistaken helenistic or at least greek cavalry used large shields at this time, not sure if Macs did too...
but just today a new freak's gone online, macedonian camelridder???? this is a travesty is all I can say...and how are they supposed to form a cantabrian circle if they're not even horse archers?

Temujin, they've made a typo. They've probably mixed the Numidian camel
archer and the Macedonian horse rider or something.

I just went to look at it and i must say i am perplexed at this one.
Not only does the name not make sense, the description also.
Superior? Hardy( well ok) Cantabrian Circle..

God dammit! I missed last night's special of historical speculation, Thermpolyee (However the hell one spell's it). The Persians units look gay as hell. And they made them sound retarded too. All for the West! Cheerios...

And from what I'm told that's from an OLDER version of the negine than the one being released for the game, so if they looked that good on this, imagine what the release version will look like!

yes, looking forward to it.
The tutorial puts you in control of the House of Julii and play as the Carthaginans in the battle of Trebia.

they just officially put up the Carthaginian War Elephant as a unit.
its rediculously large and going to stomp legions. They should have brought the Forest Elephants back to life.
