Yes, there were lions in Europe, mainly in Greece and parts of the Balkans, until around the 1st century AD. However, they were hunted because they posed a danger to humans and were already rare in Italy. The Romans mostly imported lions from Africa for use in the Colosseum.

Geomania from what i understand lions roamed everything south of the alps out to asia minor until they were hunted to extinction which the colloseum put the last nail in the coffin in

I think it works with all patches, but I can't promise.

I'm guessing that this still works, I haven't touched R2 for a very long time so no idea which update we're on!
(if you can tell me which was the last update I'd be very happy - will save me a lot of time than having to work out on my own!)

Of course it works in campaign.

Does this not work on the campaign?

Therefor all these lion units got a low unit cap. In my opinion, some lions lived there so it's not 100% unpossible but I understand your point.

becasue there were very few lions (mountain lions to be exect) in Georgia, so i dont think it would have been posible to have soldiers wear lion heads. plus nowhere in the known (written) history of Georgia does it say so. anyway it was just a suggestion on my part, and thank you for responding.

Why do you think so?

Although im greatful for all the work that you have done with Colchis i must tell you that what i see in those pictures, even though it looks awesome, is not historiclly accurate. instead maybe you should have had only the flag holder (leader of unit) wear face of the lion just like the wolfs face with the Roman units.

Looks like the lions are going extinct! xD They died for fashion though! What's the point of kicking butt if you can't look awesome doing it, eh? :P
