Gotta love those Teutonic knights though.


I love the look but doubt that anyone would wear a winged helmut into battle.
One glancing blow to the head and your wings would catch on someone's sword/axe/warhammer and spin your head around, snapping your neck. I do like the look though,very Wagnerique. I expect "The Flight of the Valkyries" to play at the start of battle or something.

The only faction I was disappointed about the looks were the Apache. I mean every other American faction is so colorful and they are all dirt colored. (I still like playing as them.)

I feel like this subject comes up about once a week, but...

joe4iz, you're absolutely right in thinking that nobody ever wore crests on their helmets like that outside of the tourney field, except Teutonic knights.

They were oddballs. ^_^ Terror before practicality, and it seemed to work for them. The helms in the game are accurate.

Keep in mind that crests on helms like that would be made of materials like lightweight, painted and gilt wood, never metal, so a dangerous blow would be more likely to rip your pretty horns off rather than your head.

Wow, you learn something new everyday.

What do you mean "Exact copies"? Should the Knights be pink and have hearts on their Shields? Should the Byzantines get a Gyro vendor as a resource?

Yes. There's no better way of saying own than getting beat by openly effeminant knights. Its like getting kicked in the balls by a care bear.
