Why post 4th and 5th century AD pictures? It's out of scope of the MOD. At least for now it does not matter.Originally Posted by PROMETHEUS
And, once again, read my previous post...
OMFG!! they look good PSYCHO V @ PROMETHEUS. You guys are really knocking them out back to back.![]()
I can't wait to be the new Scythians in game now.![]()
This mod will be the best RTS one everand I'm not just saying that.... I really mean it.
Between the new skin/model units and new gameplays to the Map.. This is what I always wanted in a RTS game.. one more time OMFGF!!![]()
The 'Gallic Warriors of La Tene period' would be perfect for Lugian Union faction, or even just the provinces of Boihaemia and Lugiae. Just what we need.
BTW, I love how 'naked fanatics' always wield strategically placed shields on these pictures ;)
I'm still not here
Please PROMETEUS. Keep posting less images in each page of the thread or i'll delete your posts.Originally Posted by PROMETHEUS

The strip thing?..well prob more of a Belgae thing than your standard Central Gauls. The biggest prob is the generic nature of the unit..to get a unit that can pass as 'Tribal Militia' for all of Trans and Cis-alpine Gaul.Originally Posted by PROMETHEUS
These guys are you farmers and hire hands, poor folk in relation to the warrior class (Warband), conscripted to fight for their overlords. I was considering a generic plain brown or faded green shirt and some dull tartan duds. Oh, and the belt is going.
Verci and I were also discussing whether they should have torcs. Though some wore them, many in this class evidently (at least according to current research and historical accounts) did not. So we figure, make them distinct in this aspect and leave them off the Militia?
Ok, now as to arms. We have enabled the Warbands to throw spears. They’ll throw a volley before charging, like the Romans. The Tribal Militia will be replacing the ‘peasants’. The Skirmisher will be removed and Aquitanian Archers, Senone Slingers etc added.
Do you think we should give the Militia some javelins to throw as well as a thrusting spear to make them quasi – light javelin skirmishers?

Why not just give the torcs to the officers?

They should have some type of light javelin, I think. The Gauls had 'darts', which were what preamabled the later Irish darts. I'd think these darts would be used by militias, as professional soldiers often had actual javelins. Also, I'd give them a plain, dull brown shirt, and maybe remove the mustache, as those were more of a popular item for professional warriors and aristocrats. While hardly an impossibility for the militias to have them, it would draw a difference between actual warriors and militiamen.
Their pants should be checkered, in two colors (farmers and freemen wore two-three colors, slaves wore one, warrior classes wore four-to-five, nobles wore six, and the king could wear seven colors).
