Sorry, but I bad understand English across Google-translator
My suggestion about class "Berserker"
1) he must have armors and weapons as this was in history in Scandinavian sagas and runic pictures (within a reasonable display and understanding. But not every piece of the saga is displayed, for example, not to make a superhero-berserk)
2) If option "Rage" prevents this, it is necessary to remove her
3) Berserkers need give shirts/tunics, skins/pelts of bear and wolf (passage of one of the sagas, which I have quoted, one might even assume a light hauberk of mail, but that's moot point (But without hauberk their description Ynglinga saga).
However, berserks wore not only skins/pelts.). Pelts/Skins can be increased to the level of protection Padded Cloth.
4) Berserkers need give shields and spears
http://www.vikinganswerlady.com/berserke.shtml (berserkers with shields and spears).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berserker
To gnaw shield should have it. + Not all berserks in all battles gnawed shield. It is simply a description of their rage, but not a description of their behavior in every battle and all berserkers, without exception. I wrote about this earlier.
5) Need save for Berserkers helmets, because some berserkers can used helmet.
I wish to notice that some passages of sagas can be confronted by the idea that some could be berserks dressed in a heavy armors and weapons! However, if more severe assortment of highly controversial (because Ynglinga saga their description as superheroes without hauberk, who gnaw shield
), we propose to give at least an elementary-possible, what is shown berserk in the sagas and runic stones (within a reasonable display and understanding. But not every piece of the saga is displayed, for example, not to make a superhero-berserk).
+Do not forget that this notion could also refer simply to the warriors on the battlefield who behave violently and rage (in some cases). At the same time, these soldiers could be not in the pelts, and not to be warriors of the special cult, but even be warriors in hauberk. +It is worth considering and the moment, that the saga may have under the same notion describing various activities and behavior of the berserkers. A different berserks could have a different assortment (dress code) and behavior, but they all in rage and fury on battle, as their fighting style. So berserks as special warriors-wolves (ulfhednar) of Harald Fairhair in "Grettis saga"
http://www.sagadb.org/grettis_saga, but berserks as bodyguards in full fighting armor in "Hrólfs saga kraka ok kappa hans"/"Hjalta þáttr"
http://norse.ulver.com/src/forn/hrolf/on.html, and berserkers as rage superheroes ((
))/special warriors of special cult of Odin in "Heimskringla"/"Ynglinga saga"
http://www.heimskringla.no/wiki/Ynglinga_saga, and berserks as bandits in Grettis saga.
+Compare two descriptions of the Grettis saga: Thorir a berserk simply described as leader (have shiep) with a mighty force, and no indication of his garment, but others berserks (wolves) are described as special berserks warriors of king Harald in wolf skins:
2. kafli
...Þórir var hinn mesti berserkur og fullhugi. Var þar hin harðasta orusta af hvorumtveggjum. Þá hét konungur á berserki sína til framgöngu. Þeir voru kallaðir úlfhéðnar en á þá bitu engi járn. En er þeir geystust fram þá hélst ekki við.
English version:
because Thorir was the greatest bearserk, and the stoutest of men; so the fight was of the fiercest on either side. Then the king cried on his bearserks for an onslaught, and they were called the Wolf-coats, for on them would no steel bite, and when they set on nought might withstand them.
In the first case berserk as a fierce in battle powerful warrior, but he is a leader of soldiers and has his ship. He is not described as invincible and do not describe the appearance of the garment.
In the second case berserks in skins, they are not taking any iron, nor fire, they are invincible on the description; the description of their garments!
Before us are two different types of berserkers: simple mighty fierce warrior (could be in hauberk and in helmet, but could be and without) and a special category of fierce warriors in skins.
Conclusion: Not all berserks on one person/face and not all are similar in behavior to each other (who is a bandit; who is a leader with the ship; who is a bodyguard; who is a special warrior of Odin), but there are those who in skins and invincible, but there are those who in full fighting regalia/armor (as it is to understand the unknown, but the allusion is clearly not alone on skin), and there are those who simply berserk in an unknown garb, but they are all strong and fierce in the style of combat.
This simply my suggestions and my understanding about class berserker for mod.
Or class "Berserker" can be removed and instead make a class "Varðmaðr" as elite warriors of hofdingi (as class Huscarls of Anglo-Saxons)
1) His garment should be Padded Cloth as minimum, and then hauberks
2) He should have helmets as minimum (as at Hofdingi)
3) Swords and other weapons for it should be cheaper (as at Huscarls)
But your additional information is quite interesting as well, and the boyarin name has already been introduced in the version we work with for 0.85.
Good new! Thank your very much.
But it all depends on who you want to differentiate amongst these mounted warriors:
if it is also necessarily an aristocrat, the title "Boyarin" fits best.
But if it's just a horseman, and not necessarily of the nobility, the best "Knyazhiy muzh" name, because Boyarin is a noble person in this period of history, which has an government post and the ground (early in history of Rus so could be named just a powerful warrior in battle, those who a lot of fighting).
My question:
Want and can your make this headwear (the one that left in the picture)?
