No, there won't be any chariots. I searched that function some time ago, I asked kuaik and Swyter for help and they gave it willingly, but both said that chariots are basically impossible for warband, expcept from props(immovable) and that isn't good.
 
For version 1 no, but I have already found some pieces from various OSPs, I need to sit sometime and assemble them, because I think they will be perfect for that particular horse "armor".
 
:razz:

Regarding the mod, however, progress is still being made. Namely, all shields(both greek and Persian, hoplons, sparas and wicker peltast shields) are implemented and from the items, only the helmets remain, about 50-70 of them. If we count the "cloth helmets", like the kidaris or the thracian caps, we go well over 80. So, it's a bit of work, especially testing them and balancing them, which is teiously easy but takes a lot of time.

And then we have the troops and NPCs. With the exception of the military units(troop trees and mercenaries) which are about 60-70, with all the upgrades and stuff, in the Native game there are about 800 NPCs I want to customize completely(because the generic Village Elder and Weapons Merchant is meh) and the new NPCs(priests, oracles and stuff), so we're talking about a lot of work. Again, very easy, basic and fun, but it takes a LOT of time. Fortunately, we will soon have the Christmas Holidays, so I will work then with more intensity and focus.
 
Well, as I said, the helmets are basically a number of hours(2-3) at the most, the troops are definetely a lot of work, again easy, but time-consuming.
In these two jobs, quality isn't really an issue, as I believe you mean it, because they're the most basic of modding, just a matter of time and typing names, stats, items etc. But I haven't yet found any time to work fucused on them.
