Suggestions

[possum]

once again me:

the troop trees need some real reworking. the rhodok for example dont have a real infantry and no real archer unit. the best infantry they have are the vet. spearmen who can be upgraded to skirmishers these may spawn with javelins instead of bows.
i know this mod wants to keep the "low-tech" feeling but the armies are regular troops, they should have some real archer units and real infantry.

i am sure the other troop trees have some similar problems.

i don't know if i should be posting this in the kings court forum, but is there any way to make the terrain less hilly. i really hate it when i try and fight some one near a mountain and i can barley move because all there is, is one hill after another.

Greetings folks.

Razinka, download link for map you made is down. Any possible alternatives?

Yes yes, I know this is not the right place for this kind of bump, but I really need that map, doin some work on it...

I am new around ...
I saw your screenshots of the latin essence skins (knights)and look wondefull!
I wonder if you would interest in creating a faction roster that would represent
the byzantine forces ....
I am the heading researcher of the CBUR in twc and if you would like i could give you
some detailed pics and instructions of how to make an accurate unit roster ussing already
skin textures and equipment...
I will come by in a couple of days but you can find me in TWC with the same nickname!

Just tried the mod and I'm really happy for done so! I cannot express in words.

Well, my suggestion is to jump off Calradia. Native belongs to Calradia, 1257 to Northeastern Europe. The factions would be Duchy of Estonia under danish rule (nords); the Livonian Brothers of the Sword, or Livonian Order (swadians), depending on date and historical accuracy; the Grand Duchy of Lithuania (rhodocks); Kievan Rus either as a whole or one or two major princedoms (vaegirs); and of course, the Golden Horde (khergits). Extensive work for map and heraldry is in order to begin this. What is your opinion on the matter Spanky? And fellow mod fans?

Will be back for more!

I'd rather see a new madeup map than a real-life map and keep the original factions. Also more custom heraldry would be nice.. I love the one Lionel has but I can't make a banner that would match it properly so sometimes I just steal all his gear. blue and white is the best combination but unfortunately there's only the griphon (if i recall correctly) and I'm not really a fan of it.

More content would be awesome, e.g. items, castle and village features, lord interactions. Some examples off the top of my head:

Bascinets and early forms of plate armour would be fantastic.

Arming swords that can be used both single-handed and double-handed.

Adding this would be sweet: http://forums.taleworlds.net/index.php/topic,62492.0.html

Good man. Good, good man! I love the idea of adding a bit of plate, even if it's just a shoulder pad or two. Maybe a breast plate. By mid/late 13th Century, most knights were *completely* equipped with plate from head to toe. So, why not add a bit of plate to the Surcoats? Also, more designs for surcoats. Dueling lords for fame or to the death for rewards or something would be nice. A death system would be spectacular - for both NPCs and the PC. More Khergit armor, and more weapons. That's all I can think of, aside from what others have said, already.

No.

[Fitzchivalry]

Being less pedantic and more helpful would be better I think.

Long story short 13th Century was a transitional phase for armour; plate supplemented, but it wasn't a complete replacement for maille.

One grows weary after the 6th time or so...

No.

Okay, not *mid* thirteenth.. But Late 13th and Early 14th had a lot of plate parts, whilst late 14th had more *full*plate.

"A lot" as in "armoured surcoat", knee protections, maybe shinguards.


Ie, "a lot" as in, well, "not a lot"
And that would be considering late XIIIth France or Italy, and not the mid XIIIth technological backwater this mod portrays.

What I was suggesting was, to add a little bit of plate to some of the armours. Like some plated mail, shoulders, wrist guards, maybe even an armguard. [Shrugs.]

At least more surcoat variations. Different designs. Weathered, Torn, Rusted, so on. I don't know.

Regardless, this is still one of the best modules around.

[Bayard]

hello ,
First , I think more textures for the custom surcoat and barded warhorse will be nice .
Second , why not more helmets , more colored surcoat ( with heraldy pictures ) , more shields , ...
This mod is very nice , you don't need to add a lot of things
