Usually there is noone to describe you these units .The Ithacians call them "shadows" and if you face oneof them  someday one thing is sure, "your are their target".Most of the previous leaders and high officers of Empire's legions had meetings with shadows in the last invansion to Empire's lands.

Im crossing my fingers and holding my breath! I will probably do that myself this summer with my black dragons army as well as my other medieval armies. Although I'm sure they are not as massive as yours! I have been only collecting for less than a year. (Wish I still had my plamos from when I was a kid. Garage sale casualties).

LETS US CONTINUE THE PRESENTATION OF THE ITHACIAN DRAGONS...........!

The first unit type is one of my favorites in Ithacian Army.It is a heavy type of Crossbowmen.Excellent Unit for long and close range battle.Their armor also can protect them from enemy's long range weapons.

In second photo are the foot Knights of Ithaca.Their strong armor and their battle axes can break the most of the enemy's lines.

The next photo shows a very flexible but also strong unit in Ithacian infantry the Wraths.They have better armor than normal infantry and their attacking force is great as they using battle axes in combination with their swords.Their shields have only defensive role when they are under enemy fire.

The last photo shows the artillery crew units for the Siege cannons and catapults.In Ithacian army this unit can also defend their positions.

And now is the time of the Elite Guard of Atlantis.These units are the special forces of Ithaca.Well trained soldiers with great fighting capabilities.They are as deadly as the shadows but they prefer to show themselves.The elite Guard has three type of units

Heavy attacking units (First Photo)
Heavy defensive units (Second Photo)
And a third supporting unit that can play any of the above roles(Third Photo)
The last type is my favorite in the Atlantian Guard.

Gosh, that is an insane amount of equipment on their part! 8}
I have found the weakness of the Ithacan army... :P
Attack when it rains, they wont be able to use their army,
and those that try will sink into the mud! :o

Even my small force of Rutilians will be enough for them in that scenario! :lol:

Post by: grangel on May 23, 2011, 22:56:04
I think that you are seeing the customs in different angle.My customs over 90% have the typical Geobra setting.An body armor,shield,sword and some of them a secondary weapon.All the armies in medieval era have these equipments.
But i like very much to give different details to each unit.If i am putting shoulder cover to a klicky or armor handcuffs/handprotectors does not mean that the armor become heavier.I 'm just trying to give to make the armor more detailed.On the other hand George likes to keep his klicky in their original state.As long as i 'm remembering myself i have left uncustomized very few klickies.

I hope to let you understand what i mean.It is cruel to judge an medieval army as very equipment-ed.It is the main idea of medieval period.

July isn't that far away. It will be here before you know it. My wife and kids are going to the beach in early June so I am planning on revealing the Wolves of Melnibone. I'm in the same boat as Grangel as I can't bring out a lot of Klickies because of the kids. My little boy will be knocking my klickies down as fast as I'm putting them up. :)
