Hats off to Leon for his great service. The system wouldn't let me register so after a number of attempts and thinking my typing was at fault I contacted Leon direct at about fourish yesterday afternoon.
He replied at 01:38 this morning! Does the man ever sleep?

Everything is now ticketty-boo.

Once again, a great Customer Service ethic you have there Leon; but I would recommend a few zzzzz's every so often.  :)

Whilst I would love to claim that were true (and I was working at 1:30am this morning!), I think your messages are set to a 12-hour clock as I replied at 13:38pm this afternoon to that one...   :D

I keep suggesting that Leon's dream quest name should be "Owl-Who-Never-Sleeps" but haven't be able to move the meme-needle.

That whole sleep thing is overrated!

If I would sleep 8 hours a day I'd never get anything painted.

I knew one of those chaps wot always has a lovely bird on his arm - wotcha call 'em? Rich b**tards. Anyway at the weekend, he used to dabble with raptors. There's no law agin' it - not in Runcorn.

Anyways up, he was of the opinion that the owl was the stupidest of all the yer avians. Very difficult to train on account of them being dumber than a pikeman in a parachute regiment.

So, Mr D_Guy, I reckon you just called the Leon - the Dark Lord himself, Eldrich Master of the Ebon Arts, and a dab hand at the A66 - a bit of a twit.

I think of owls more in the Athenian sense than in the Aesopian (and I've now also seen a likeness of Leon, blest be he).

While we will never know, a well drilled Para pike block at Arnhem may have tipped the scales. Such is the power of speculative history.

You should have just accepted it, nobody would have known aannddd when almost walking on water is an everyday occurrence as far as the rest are concerned...  :)

Anyway, I stand by my comments.

Apologies for not knowing where to report bugs, but this is the best I could find in the five minutes of research I did. 

Libyan Spearmen and Javelinmen, shield seem to have been swapped in the Carthage catalog.  I am not sure which I will get, the named unit or the pictured unit.  I luckily bought 30 of each to be sure I was covered!

Thanks!

Not sure on that one, the images I've got showing here are the correct ones for the code?

ACR2 - Javelinmen, shield


ACR13 - Libyan Spearmen

Nope they're the wrong way round. The Libyans are the armoured ones.

We'll need to look at that then, as the ACR3 code was sculpted in the first batch of Carthaginians and released.  We then got requests for Libyan spearmen as well so those were sculpted and released separately.  We've been selling them for about 5-6 years now without any queries being raised?

ACR-2 Appear to me to be armored spearmen that are either Liby-phoenician, African, or Libyan.

ACR-13 are perfect representations of Libyan skirmishers with Javelin.
