Why?
No disrespect to Udud(its great to see a mod leader who actually has modding skills and not just another barely literate person with no modding skills starting a mod and expecting others to do all the work like so many of these other mod threads) but europe in the high middle ages has been done so many times before and i personally  find the dark ages so much more interesting.

Hecate has put some good effort into this so why should he let it go to waste?
(Era of Agression 970AD is a cooler name than Blue Blood anyway )

When I look at this mod, I think "Wow, this is possibly one of the coolest mods ever." But I did find a problem with one of the pictures. One said in green text "English Longbowman". Now I know you improved armor for them, so I'm not complaining about that. I am complaining because what I see on the Longbowman is not a long bow, but a strong bow. Was it a placeholder?

 

[Hecate]

  the name has been changed to some thing else scence longbows were not present in this timeline

 

[RalliX]

Longbows were present actually. Even the Egyptians, and some Indian kingdoms used them. Vikings also used tall self-wood bows sometimes. The English are simply famous for using them en-masse, a couple hundred years later.

That said I have been working on some models for wepons and will try my hands on some modleing new scenes (wish me luck), this is all being achived slowly on my laptop  ​

------BASIC OVERVIEW OF THE WEEK------​

Today: finish work on Germanic wepons

Sunday: work on fatimid wepons

Monday: finish up what ever work still neede to be done for wepons

Wednesday: try my hand on modeling new scenes

Saturday: Hope nothing will bother me then to work on the patient Fatimid faction

Sunday: hopefully the day my models are unvaled ​

Kingdom of Duklja didn't exist at the time. Duklja gained some kind of independence in 990s, and was in peak hundred years later in 1090. Until 960. small Serbian principalities like Paganija, Travunija, Zahumlje, Duklja, Raska (Rascia), Bosna (Bosnia) were in confederation under Prince Caslav Klonimirovic's  rule. Together they formed Grand Principality and the princes of those principalities were loyal to Caslav. After his death in 960. the confederacy fell apart. After that princes of these small states fought for supremacy. So you should change Kingdom of Duklja to Grand Principality of Serbia (or Serbs) because all of these states were inhabited by Serbs and it's rulers were Serbs.

 

[Prußak]

Please rename a Kingdom of Poland to Duchy of Poland. Mieszko I was a prince, not king.

I want to know how the Irish guys look. It'd be nice to destroy the world with my kinsmen. Oh yeah, and the Rus and Byzantine troops look awesome. Keep up the amazing work!

970AD Was a time of great conflicts in central/east europe and east mediteranean.
But i 970AD there were no knights the way you know them.

has scimilar scenario and much wider time frame but you can have an idea.
Norman knights apeared after 1010AD and they did not fight as lancers before thay would copy Lombard
horsemen tactics.

Viking Rus were horseless (majority) with many slavic warriors.
The super powers in that ear in the entire europe were Bulgaria and Roman Empire (the one you call Byzantine).
Also Arabs and their states were super strong and rich.
See TGC's previews and contact me there if you have any questions.

Looks awesome...
Just for a tip, many many Medieval 2 mods may be useful for armors/events/weapons of era, you may want to ask if they want to share their models with you 
You find most of them from TotalWarCenters

 

[Frappiller]

wow this mod is going to turn out great im so excited
