The Spartans, part 1 (01 Nov 2007)

[Sandris]

Here`s my early pack of units - The Spartans, part 1.

The source of inspiration for creating these units is here.



Early Spartan Spearman

Early Spartan Spearman (Non-civ colored version)




Early Spartan Swordsman

Early Spartan Swordsman (Non-civ colored version)




Spartan Hoplite (remember the Thermopylae )

 

[Stormrage]

Good gods, man, you`re a wonder!

 

[Gen. Rommel]

Look really good dude! By the way, where did you get the helmet for the Spartan Hoplite (and while I'm at it, could you send me it)?

 

[Quinzy]

You're just pumping these out man! Hurrah!

 

[Sandris]

Look really good dude! By the way, where did you get the helmet for the Spartan Hoplite (and while I'm at it, could you send me it)?

I`ll post some of those props (including those helmets) in order to extend our frontiers in unit-making process.

 

[Gen. Rommel]

That sounds sweet! That's even better than just the one prop - now we will get access to multiple props. Will this be soon (not trying to be a nag )?

EDIT: After seeing these units, I feel like an asstart even thinking about releasing my spartan Hoplite. It will suck compared to these works of beauty.

EDIT, EDIT: Rob, don't forget to add these to Anno Domini!

 

[Ozymandias]

Extremely well done

Thank You,

[Stormrage]

So, which civ has the most flavour units these days? Actually, the US has to hold 1st place with Wyrm`s endless contributions, but does 2nd place go to Sparta or to India?

 

[Quinzy]

Sandris, did you know that the symbol on the shiled is upsidedown?

 

[Stormrage]

I was gonna ask that too, but then.. I`m not an expert, and to lazy to look around..

 

[Quinzy]

The symbol is the greek letter Lambda (&#923

 

[Stormrage]

Its the forbidden dance!

.. no, wait..

Well, I think they still look great, perhaps the warriors went out in a rush and didn`t notice that detail

Well, the spartan smithcrafters were in a rush just before the battle at Thermopylae .

 

[Stormrage]

Well, hopefully you`ll open a preview thread, so someone can inspect the smithcrafters` work before going to war

 

[Leaven]

ooooo.... more presents! And right before I lose internet access for a few days, Thanks Sandris!

 

[Gary Childress]

WOW! These are great!! Well done Sandris!

 

[Plotinus]

How many units have you got in preparation? You've just posted two unexpected packs in rapid succession! These are all very nice units and will be much used. Thanks!

 

[Rob (R8XFT)]

Rob, don't forget to add these to Anno Domini!

Of course I'll add them; they'll be great additions!! Thanks a lot; I could probably extend the Spartan advantage in Anno Domini to incorporate a couple of era one bronze age units as well; there's enough units by looks of things.

Thanks a lot!

The only thing I would say is that I bought the helmets from Jon Malis/Daz; is it right that you're offering them for download here?

*Insert clichéd 300 quote*

Nice Spartans. Keep up the good work!

I officially nominate Sandris "new unit maker of the year"!!!
