MacklesMod: Two Hander Maniacs Unit Pack

Description
Introducing my first full unit pack - I give you the Two Hander Manics! These are a collection of units which consider shields are a burden for brave men, preferring to concentrate all their fury through their weapon of choice. There are a mixture of sword-carrying Britons, axe-bearing Germans, trident-armed Athenians and spear-handling Gauls. These are powerful units that can turn the tide of battle when used at the right moment. However, beware letting them endure prolonged engagements or missile barrages.



Head Hunters (Iceni)
Such is their belief in their own skill, and disdain for their enemies, these skilled British warriors need rely only on their blades to bring them victory.
Recruitable from Warlords Hold and above.

Spear Brethren (Averni, Boii, Nervii)
These expert spearmen, drawn from the forests and hills of wildest Gaul, use their weapons with blinding speed and pinpoint accuracy to find the weak spot in any defence.
Recruitable from Bronze Forge and Bronze Furnace.

Chosen Axemen (Suebi)
Wodan is not a forgiving god, so these ferocious axemen are well prepared to fight to the last man. Once they work themselves into a blood rage, they will hack a hole through all but the strongest of battle lines.
Recruitable from Mead Hall.

Disciples of Poseidon (Athens)
Sworn to serve Poseidon from boyhood, this cult of Athenian warriors are highly trained in the art of war. Though they appear to be armed with relics, few would dare to mock the Lord of the Sea in their presence.
Recruitable from Temple of Poseidon Level 3 and above.


This unit pack should be completely compatible with any other mods. Please let me know if it is causing any issues for you.

Hey, I'm getting a weird bug-- not sure if it's my install or what, exactly.


I know your Disciples of Poseidon are meant to be an Athenian exclusive, but they're also recruitable for Syracuse, as it turns out. Now normally I wouldn't complain about an extra unit in the roster, but when recruited for Syracuse they appear to be a bit glitched. The unit card appears to be a Roman sword unit on a boat, and on the battlefield the Disciples are completely invisible! It's worth noting, of course, that they appear to be working correctly for Athens.

I've already attempted to fix it by deleting the mod and re-installing it; it yielded no result. Just curious if anyone might have encountered this with this mod or has any other advice.

Yes a Sparta Unit would be nice thank you, or at least a merc they can hire as they became more dependant on merecenaries later in their history.

@BM - It's not an impossibility, although I am trying to keep these kinds of units as a more special kind of unit, so as not to cheapen them when they are available. I'll have a think about it and see if I can't come up with something.

Any chance of giving Sparta a unit and/or making any of these units Merc/Auxillia Camp Units?
