That's not quite correct; swastikas are forbidden when used in connection with nazi parties/movements or actions that incite anti-democratic thoughts.

They MAY be shown when used for educational purposes, science reports or when used for other (honest/true) historical functions.

Let's face it; the swastika is NOT a nazi symbol, they just stole and used it for their own ideas and ideals.

I know Germans are sensitive when it comes to this topic but IMO it's not illegal to use it in a HISTORICAL modification based in a time where nazis did not even exist. The swastika is way older than the nazi regime which abused it.

What was the original meaning behind the swastika?

[eadingas]

Solar symbol.

[GeWee]

I think you should add swastikas if they were common at the time. This is a historic mod after all.
So what if EB probably may get banned from Germany? It's not like every German who wants it isn't gonna download it anyway. Besides, while I don't know how rigid the laws in Germany, I doubt that the police there goes knocking on peoples' doors looking for banned mods for computer games.

[masp_82]

Yes, you can show the swastika here in Germany when you need it for educational purposes in documentarys etc. But computer games dont´t belong to this group of educational things, even if they are so historical as the EB mod.

But like GeWee said, our police has more important things to do as to look if someone has this mod on his computer.

The only problem i can think of is that maybe german gaming magazines are not allowed to put the mod on their magazines dvd for distribution. But thats not really a big thing, because most people will download the mod from the internet.

[PROMETHEUS]

What about this?

[SaFe]

What about this?

Veeeryyy nice Prom.
Great looking celts.
B.t.w. News on the chattii warband we talked about?

[PROMETHEUS]

No news still since I have s a lot of work befoure still....

now here is another version with a more realistic human skin and of course the other was too much a conan the barbarian like .....

[frisian28ad]

amzing the detail on the helmet, the body is indeed much more realistic, it needs some work though (arms)

Greetings

[Byzantine Prince]

Where can I download any of these skins? TW Center doesn't have of them .

[Urnamma]

Here is the latest evolution ....

Prom, the mail in this pic looks like rough leather. You need to give it a metallic feel. After that, this unit is perfected and done.

[Urnamma]

None of them will be available until we have release the mod.

[Aymar de Bois Mauri]

PROMETHEUS!!! I want to see the Legion in sunshine!!! Post a pic to check the contrast of the mail.

[Zanderpants]

The shield is colored oddly. On the top and bottom, it's lighter than in the middle.

[PROMETHEUS]

Ok guys here are both the legions , now I only need to do the Augustean one ....the second type is the Imperial segmentata legion based on a previous model made by Agrippa I made some important variations and severall changes and additions ..... as well as I completely redraw at free hand the textures making them more close to an original one....same thing goes for the shield pattern.....

[SwordsMaster]

I still think that the standard bearer´s face is really disturbing....

[Gangstaman590]

Wow is all I can say. That armor on the romans is amazing and their helmets look great. This mod is really turning out to be amazing. One thing though is that I'd like to see more units for the germans and some greek ones.

Well, maybe wow isn't all I can say.

[Alexander the Pretty Good]

Jeez, I stopped checking this thread for like four days and all these beautiful screens... this just made my week.

Thanks!

[Byzantine Prince]

Well what I've noticed is that the swords are a little dirty on one side. You might want to fix that.

Other then that, great, great work on the whole armor.

[Dead Moroz]

Man, you must return original body to these warriors. The new skin looks unrealistic in fact. It's too blurry. Muscles are too uncultivated. Nipples are too red. Gauls looks like band of queers now.

Prom, you made this skin according to average modern stature of men. But ancient people had much better muscles, 'coz they used to do a lot more physical work than we do. And don't forget that these guys on picture are warriors, they train their body, they just must have good muscles.

[eadingas]

Their nipples are red because they're cold :) Going about all shirtless and all :)

Lol no , you watched too many conan the barbarian like movies , instead if you look at all the primitive African or Borneo or Australian or South American tribes , even the tribes that are costantly at war do not have the presence of conan people , the only ones probably at the time were the gladiators that pumped up their muscles on purpouses with machines , infact the main bench to raise weights even has a "roman" adjective... the skins are stll in work but they are thousand times more realistic than a uber muscled barbarian of the fictions of holliwood.....

[SwordsMaster]

I think you should include a big fat belly. After al, beer is beer....

[Dead Moroz]

Yes, modern primitive tribes are not that Conans from movie. But they are neither that sickly homosexuals like on your pic.

When people do hard physical work every day they just cannot have uncultivated muscles. Don't copy new skin from office workers. Look at soldiers, builders, farmers, etc. - they all are sturdy guys. Many of them are not "conans", but they have good relief muscles.

[SwordsMaster]

And name 'em all Obelix. "Obelix Warband".

hey.... You might be on a good idea here...

[Aymar de Bois Mauri]

Are you trying to make "Barbarians" look gay?!! They look ridiculous!!!

WHEN WILL YOU POST A PIC OF THE LEGION IN SUNSHINE? IT'S THE 3RD TIME I ASK YOU TO DO IT AND I WILL NOT ASK IT AGAIN!!!

African Tribes can't be compared with Celts or Germans, they don't have the typical Wargames the northern Europeans had and additionally they don't eat as much Meat as they did. They should have a Sixpack and well trained Arms, not a Conan-Body nor average.

1) He's trying them to look actual human beings and not Hulk clones. Celtic warriors were supposed to be big and strong, not to be fitness culturists. They shaved their bodies to make hard to be grabbed in a fight, not to show muscles.

2) Chain mails were not made of stainless steel nor polished silver. They were made of iron, and iron gets really dark very fast by contact with air. Now they are realistic. It's more: lorica segmentata -that was used only for two centuries and a half and got again disused fron 3rd century onwards in favour of chain mails again, because of its difficult maintenance- should be less shiny than it is in the pics.

3) It's the 3rd time you unpolitely ask something, and you won't ask again? That's good news. You see: unless you're his boss or his mother, you can't give orders to a guy that's just sharing his talents for free, lad. You can't simulate slavery outside the game.

[Big_John]

wow.. um.. Rome: Total Bigotry?

anyway, i think the new physique looks much more realistic. they could be more muscular, true, but it's a huge improvement over the cartoonish CA skin.
