A series of close up shots of some of our units, namely the Spartans and others. Enjoy.
I want to say that the shield patterns of the Spartans are based on the latest research. Some people couldn't care less, but others appreciate such detail. :)
I appreciate that kind of details in a game. It makes it more authentic. I wouldent have a clue about the patterns if you dident write it here hehe..
So playing this game can result in some history learning ;)
The details on the shields were one of the first things I noticed in this picture. Awesome work! Knowing that they're historically-based makes it even better.

The blue dudes are Republican Romans.
