You personally did some of the work on that armour?
Ser, my commendations.
I think so, as far as I know C.o.F stands for Count of Flanders :p

Read the first line (after the quote) in the post with the armour pics
but those are some really nice armours count!
Owen Wulfson said:Here, this should be worth a peek. These armors are Courtesy of the Count of Flanders, a premier modder on these forums. Old news, but always interesting to see. Should provide for a stimulating conversation at any rate...
This fantastic bro . You are amazing
The Count of Flanders does do great work, you should check out the stuff he made for the next version of Prophesy of Pendor and the Veiled Star.

That unit is a Godswood Keeper, the elite ranged units of the north. A complete image of their armor, including their helmet, is below.
Their presence in the mod is in most parts as an elite tier unit, their religious affiliation is simply for tastes. The lore team has tinkered with them, and the basic story about them is this:
"An order of the greatest marksman and hunters in the North, Godswood Keepers are dedicated worshippers of the Old Gods. In times of peace they are sworn to protect the sacred groves and ensure the gaze of the Old Gods continues to fall upon their lands. In times of war they swear before a Weirwood tree to do all in their powers to stop the enemy before they reach the grove."
Game wise, northern archer units will be trained into them through master-at-arms in Northern Cities. The team will not strain itself to justify their presence, even if contradictory to source material, because this is their interpretation of the world of ASOIAF. They look cool, they can fit reasonably into the background, so everything is fine.

I do like the idea of implementing religions, I have thought about it a while ago and have come to a conclusion that I will only add religions when I will decide certainly how they should function in game and how I should code it all in. Religions shouldn't be just in 'Hi, you arrive @ Westeros, please choose your religion'. It should be a complex system with benefits and drawbacks, your relations with other lords and factions should depend on that and much, much more.
P.S. Now that I described my approach, if anyone is willing to seriously sit down and think it all over and through and present me with his version of thorough religious system, it would be great and might help later on religions implementation.
