    Default R E S G E S T A E



    Hello all , I am currently making a project called RES GESTAE , is quite some time that I am working on this .... here is a brief description of my mod.....

    1
    I replaced a couple of factions with some more attractive and interesting ...

    2
    There will not be hoards of units , I am more for few but good than many but repetitive or similar , also this would just confuse players on my opinion...

    3
    Multiplayer oriented , this means that the multiplayer will be one of the main aspects and gameplay balance will be particularly taken care of ...

    4
    unit balancement in order to respect historicity and fun gameplay ..... this means if a faction was definetly useless and uncompetitive in history , will be helped a bit to survive on multiplayer ...

    5
    Historicity , all units will be remade in historical way , so will be completely new unit lists , not huge ones but good ones , of which u will be always able to find the sources used and documentated , mainly information taken from osprey books , the several books about uniforms and reconstructions of ancient hera , plus help from several experts on the ancient history...

    6
    New map , this will span from scandinavia to the deserts of central Africa and from Portugal till the Gange valleys....

    7
    The gameplay will be balanced by expert multiplayers , plus battles will be longer ....

    8
    some other scripting will be present , probably reuse of already winning and succesfull scripts already made by other modders with their permissions of course , but this is for now optional


    The Name is inspired about the purpouse of rewriting history making your own RES GESTAE .....

    all the units will be made by me to keep an uniformity in the style ....

    the list of factions is ...


    Roman Julii
    Roman Valerii
    Roman Cornelii
    Roman Senatus
    Carthago
    Greeck Cities
    Macedonian Kingdom
    Tolemaic Egypt
    Seleucid Kingdom
    Parthian Kingdom
    Bactrian Kingdom
    ScythoSarmatian tribes
    Germanic Tribes
    Britannic Tribes
    Gaulish tribes
    Cetliberian Tribes
    Numiodian Kingdom
    Pontus Kingdom
    Mauryan Kingdom
    Dacian Kingodm and Thracian Tribes


    The timeline is from 220 BC to 69 AD

    here are some screenshots to show some of the work made for it ....

    Seleucid Sirian Armoured Elephants



    Garamante Warriors

    Those sure are some stunning new models, as well as the textures. Are only the Roman units going to be shared with EB, or are you also working on other factions for that particular mod?

    I merged Thrace with Dacia and merged Scythia with Sarmatia , the gauls , britons , iberians and germans are now seen as a group of tribes instead then one kingdom , the thrace becomes bactria while Armenia will become the Mauryan Empire....

    i guess what i meant is your replacing gaul with celt-iberians. Does that mean they will only have celt-iberia.

    Well I didn't really cut the "Spanish faction" I renamed it to Celtiberian faction , since the southern tribes are under the Cartaginian control , the northern ones together with the Celtiberians are free , I decided to go with that etnic group....

    Question:

    In this pic, the one titled "Republican Principèes and Centurion," there are two different helmets: one normal-looking one, and one with the eye-pieces that face upwards. I suspect those are two different units mixed together. But what units? Am I right?

    As much as I am obliged to agree, this mod has also proved to have very cool iberian units.

    I'm not much for multiplayer, but holy crap! Those models are stunning! When this mod gets released, I'll be sure to catch some online action (and hopefully some with friends).

    Also, an indian faction is very interesting. Definetly looking forward to play them. :)

    Are you using the Mundus Magnus/EB map?

    The one with sort of faced helmets are Triarii , the centurion is the republican type and the other unit are principes...
