Chivalry TW - Info & Updates thread

**Lord Adherbal** · 11-07-2005, 08:36

We don't have a thread for info, updates and discussion yet so I though I'd make one.

For those who've been living under a rock for the past year: Chivalry Total War is a mod that brings roughly the same time period as Medieval TW to the RTW engine. It starts in 1072 a year after the Byzantine defeat at Manzikert, covers the Crusades (including a special crusading campaign) in 1095 and follwing decades, the hunderd years war between France and England, the Mongol Invasion and goes all the way to +/- 1500 AD, when early firearms were starting to get more popular.

We are currently focusing on the early era: 1072 to ~1200.

Here are a couple of recent screenshots:

Vassal Steppe Cavalry

Improved Feudal Knights

Improved Feudal Foot Knights

Late Foot Knights

The new knights are indeed a great improvement, not that the earlier version was bad, though.
You´re already working on High and Late units, too?

Wow!

Very nice

The Late Foot Knights look very cool!

Like the FAQ at your other site too. Good idea.

Can't wait for Campaign play : )

Sorry that I didn't answer for two days, but I didn't log on.
You really might want to check out our subforums on the TWC or the SCC, they are better supported ;)

BIZANTINE ARMIES AND THEIR UNIFORMS

Even your job looks great i have some sugestions about Bizantine Armies
scins. Acording to Dr.Ostrogorsky Bizantine army,succesor of the Roman one,
was until 13th century the only "regular" army in Europe.
That meens that professional units had uniforms of the same kind.
For example,units like your "themata taxeis","horse archers","trapeziatoi"
should have the same outfit like "skoutatoi"exept the armor of course.
Provincional units "thematic vandums" used the same type of shields like
"skoutatoi"since 8th centhury.
If the unit you use as "themata taxeis"where multi role infantry,I meen
spearmen and juvelineers they whould be a perfect simulation of"Akritai",
Bizantine borderers.
My opinion for maximun realism is that you must redesign the bizantine
scins using parts of the Rusian ones you have.
For the record Rusians copied Bizantines,not the oposite way.
Rusian general and family member scin is perfect for Bizantine ones too.

Hello all.
I played this mod.Very good mod.
That what i like more is history, mod's units is historic units.
But if you make mod with historic events, that will be a best mod what i saw.
