The new units:  expensive + you cannot build them so they'll always be scarce and since they have no special ability they are superfluous. I'd rather have two Agemas than a Paeonian any day.

We already have dozens of units we never build and never use + a bunch of special reward units that never add up to a significant force.  Like imperial Psilos and Hoplites and those blue Agemas.

Both graphics are disappointing.

The Iberian looks like a gold wrapped chocolate bunny or a Christmas ornament with a hook on top so you can hang him from the tree.  He looks inanimate and "flat" - more like a priest that a warrior.

The Paeonian looks like he OD-ed on Burger King meal deals.  A fat caveman... very scary indeed.

Why are they huge compared to the other units on the army overview screens?  They look poorly proportioned...

Bottom line: Over-hyped luxury toys for bored coiners.

From what I have seen with the amount of games I play, plarium.com is actually more stable with flash than facebook is. Facebook naturally has greater traffic demands yet doesnt crash nearly as often as plarium.com does.

The situation is a bit trickier than that. You may have heard that Flash will no longer be supported by browser software. You may have noticed issues cropping up after Flash Player or your browser gets updated to the next version. Facebook is one of the "exception" websites for the time being, and Flash-related issues are less prominent on it than on the Portal when they happen. That, in addition to the limited time before Flash goes down completely, is the main reason a new engine is required. If you read the thread, you can see that the task is almost complete and it will only take a couple more months before we get a new and shiny Sparta 

Yawn. These are just champs that have their own stats.

How about some of the extras from the new servers for those still loyal and dedicated to the original game. Either that or just kill the original so i can go spend my hard earned money on another game.

So many have left already because of palariums lack of loyalty to their original punters. If they actual just improved the game they would have a better fan base and more players. Protect newbies from bigger players unless they pick a fight. The massively successful games seem to be able to do this why can't palarium?

Those Paeonians are so ugly....
