WOW!
If the updated hopelites for this faction are like this . ( More Historical ! I cant wait for what is in store for the GCS and their free peoples )
This is going to be a very impressive Modd!! This is getting only better and better.
Love it! Tone!
One question i have .
How meny factions will we have after all has been finished?
20 ? 21 ?
RS is the BEST MODD by far!
Thank you Tone and DVK and all others for these improvements!
I am wondering what is next!
thank you....

Including the 'Independent Cities & States' (the former 'Free People') there will be 20 factions.

And as Tone is fond of saying: You haven't seen anything yet.
Wait til you see the coming Armenian preview. We've had the aid of two Armenians and their knowledge of their own country, so it is going to be....
well, spectacular!

Great preview!

I love the uniqueness of these units. Are these taken from historical descriptions? Its interesting how some of their clothing, and horse blankets look native american.

**swhunter** · October 09, 2007, 06:49 PM

Its very Historical.

**tone** · October 09, 2007, 07:12 PM

Two of the horse saddlecloths (general and noble cavalry) are real Scythian saddlecloth designs that were found well preserved in frozen graves in Russia / Central Asia.

if you study the scythians and the native americans you can say they have the same type of patterns. which makes sense when you trace native american lineage.
