Thanks for your reply but Sassanids were the last non islamic persian empire and had different cultureSorry, I mean the Sarranids from Warband, which are basically Calradia's Sassanid Empire
Banu SarranSorry, I mean the Sarranids from Warband, which are basically Calradia's Sassanid Empire


Sassanid Empire officially known as the Empire of Iranians and called the Neo Persian Empire by historians, was the last Persian dynasty before the Muslim conquest in the mid seventh century AD. Named after the House of Sassan, it endured for over four centuries, from 224 to 651 AD, making it the longest-lived Persian dynasty. The Sasanian Empire reestablished the Iranians as a superpower in alongside its neighbouring arch rival, the Roman Byzantine Empire.
Read this, OP.
TW says "The Aserai are based on the Arab tribes just before the great Islamic conquests of the seventh century", which would include the Sassanids. Of course, they are clearly based on the Islamic caliphates culturally too, despite what TW claims/claimed, but every faction in the Mount & Blade series is based on a combination of cultures and time periods, so that's just par for the course


Yeah but i think it's better to wait for full release before start creating modsIf you're looking for a faction with a Neo-Persian aesthetic, then I would either wait for mods or create your own suited to your unique vision.
The devs have their hands full figuring out issues that Warband had already solved years ago, so I doubt they'll be adding any new factions anytime soon.

That would be great??It hasn't been posted in the thread yet, but I intend to turn a Aserai minor faction into a more "Sassanid" minor faction:
I'm just waiting for a more definitive version and if we will have enough items for that.

That would be great??
I hope you're not making them like fantasy movies 300
T2 Darshi Takabara
T3 Darshi Sparabara
T4 Darshi Foot Archer Darshi Horse Archer
T5 Darshi Immortal Darshi Grivpanvar Darshi Elephant Archer

Dude, if you made them like 300 movie, in a way they fight you with their claws (in this case with fists but with more strenght) that would be really cool.Darshi Immortal
Elephant DLC?Darshi Elephant Archer

This is awesome. Thanks you are doing thisNo way. In fact, I will try to make it as "persian" as possible:
![]()
They will possibly replace the Ghilman mercenary minor faction and will represent the Darshi culture, which will set them apart from Aserai.
However, Darshi is the language of the Khuzait Khanate and other steppe nomads beyond the Calradic Empire’s eastern border.
So I don't know what to expect from the minor factions yet (and apparently TW doesn't either). That's why I'm waiting...
Anyway, I already have the units roster on paper:
插入代码块:T2 Darshi Takabara T3 Darshi Sparabara T4 Darshi Foot Archer Darshi Horse Archer T5 Darshi Immortal Darshi Grivpanvar Darshi Elephant Archer


I am going to wait until the game is fully released then i will create some mods maybeI've got a buddy working on making a more 'late antiquity' version of Calradia. As for me, I'm just going to stick with what they got.
