Long sleeves & trousers hoplites needed
« on: 26 March 2013, 09:58:45 PM »
Hi, I'd like to create a warband themed upon Xenophon's 10.000. That is grizzled Greek Hoplites veterans, crossing snow covered mountains to escape from Persians and ge to the see. I'd need some greek hoplite with either or both long sleeve tunic and long trousers/shoes. I think the Greeks did use some local Persian gear to resist the cold temperatures of the mountains, and wouldn't stick to the traditional short tunic/sandal combo. I would also like to mix n match some Persian weapons, to represent the scavenged gear from previous battles. Any piece of advice would be useful. Cheers!

Try looking for some Sucesser hoplites, pikemen, or hypastists. Head swap for earlier greek heads.
