I think we will definitely be covering heavy cavalry units from the steppe and the east. Thanks for the suggestions

Why don't you focus on Sarmatian and Alan cavalry specially their Cataphracts that inspired the Knights in medieval Europe and had a profound impact on European history? Also it is better to do an episode on heavy cavalry too and how they were introduced in the ancient worlds and which kingdoms used them extensively.

Dro Bush

From the list, these look cool:Falxmen, Gallic Heavy Horse, Germanic Warband, Cretan Archers, Agrianian Axemen

King Phillipos II

Great list, just to add/alter: Immortals, Sacred Bands of Carthage & Thebes, Silver Shield Pikes, Bronze Shield Pikes, Numidian Cavalry, Agranian Axemen, Cretan Archers, Varangian Guard

Added a few more!

I agree with Dro Brush. I would love to see gaul/celt/germanic units. Even the falxmen I like a lot in that list.

Invicta

Any particular ideas? Briton Chariots? Seleucid Chariots?

I feel like Rome gets too much love. I would rather see a focus on lesser known units

For that I recommend you search Kings and Generals. They did a similar series for both Roman legions and their auxiliaries. They also did the same for the Greek and Macedonian armies.
