It's been a long time since I've been around here, but Warband has brought me back. I was disappointed to find that there were no mods set in Roman times, at least none that seem to be current or in the period and setting I was looking for. So, here's my contribution:
Ghost Soldiers is a total conversion set in Roman Britain of 59 AD, just before the Boudiccan revolt. You will get a choice between playing as a Roman commander or the leader of a band of British warriors in one of the many tribes that existed at that time.

I am looking for researchers, people to check facts and help research the Celtic weapons and armour, terminology and general history. If you're familiar with the history of Roman Britain, I would appreciate your input and suggestions.
If there are any scripters out there who want to get in on this project, that would be a load off my shoulders and likewise much appreciated.
Additionally, if there's anyone who is willing to do a map of Britain that would be great, that's not really a task I'm looking forward to but I have some great topography maps for the job none the less.
