Who has seen a REAL Atlantean? (Maybe Plato, but I think he heard about them second hand as it is and he is no longer around to ask.) :-) So, I say why NOT use togas?

Antlantean style is what we say it will be. Using togas for the atlanteans WOULD differentiate them from the imperials if we agree not to use togas on any of the imperials. I just think we should avoid an eclectic combination of styles within a given tribe and keep things consistent. That's not to say we couldn't use togas and tunics for the imperials as both were prevalent in the Roman culture and use yet a different look for the atlanteans (e.g. loincloths?, full robes?). I'm open to other opinions on this of course, but we must agree on SOME style before work can proceed to complete the worker models.

One might even consider a Meso-American style for the Atlanteans (like the Mayans or Incans) as some scholars argue that possible connection. The atlantean buildings are already vaguely reminiscent of the Mayan architecture. A little tweaking of the buildings and it could be a short jump of the imagination to give the player the intended suggestion.

Thoughts?
