Scandinavia/Viking: Total War

**EvilNed** · 07-06-2005, 02:17

Here's three pics. (Proper names still not in use)

Viking Swordsmen:

Viking Elite Swordsmen:

Viking Elite Axemen:

Those are three skins I made this evening. The rest are fairly boring in comparison, but there's more coming up. The Elite Axemen skin isn't quide done yet. It needs some more work to it.

EDIT: The units on the pictures are for the gothic (Dacia) faction. The only thing that will set factions apart is the shield. So the Svean swordsmen will look alike, but with a different shield.

Hey EvilNed,

Good to see some real vikings comming to live

have you seen our Age of vikings and fanatics mod? I think we are covering the exact same era. It wold be cool if you stopped by our forum and take a look. Our presentation is not up to date yet, but you will soon see some new unit's. Maybe you could join the team?

Heres a little taste

They hair looks a little too blond and unrealistic.

My computer started working for awhile, but now I'm back with a new harddrive. Unfortunetly, I lost all my skins in the process (but not the campaign map itself).

I'm thinking about redoing the provinces and attempting to add England and Iceland while I'm at it. Also, as for the provinces I was thinking about using the landscapes of the scandinavian lands as they exist today. It might be a bit corny, since it takes place 1250 years ago, but I have really nothing else to go on. Currently, most of the provinces are simply made up, but there's more of them than there would be if I had followed the real outline.

What do you guys think?

Well, I dont have a map of sweden the way it looked around this period of time, but it was plenty much more water, much of todays Svealand was under water. I don't have a map over those areas back then.

Men det finns säkert i vilken historiebok som helst som behandlar den tiden.

Hmmm, there pretty good NED

Pewe: I never heard of that. I don't really think that sounds very plausible. Sure, Scandinavia is rising from the sea, even to this day, but it's by a few milimeters per year. Not enough to make a difference over a thousand years or so.

Bopa: Well, they're gone now. On my old harddrive. :p

Is there anyway of changing a factions culture? All factions, except for the Kievans, will have to be barbaric for it to work.
