[Preview] Kingdom of England

[Lord Hamilton]

Very nice, although I HATE that checkered blue-yellow pattern. :/

Is this the one you're talking about?


This is the coat of arms of Robert de Clifford (1274-1314), one of Edward I's top commanders during the Scottish Wars of Independence...

I would have to say that these unit textures and models are the most awe inspiring and game enhancing that I have seen for MTW2. Well done with these.

This mod looks to be fantastic. These are probably the best looking units I have ever seen in a MTW2 mod.

Good observation. Actually, however, the famed William Marshal was already dead by the time our mod begins - died 1219, WotW begins around 1250 or so. The coat of arms you see there actually comes from Roger le Bigod, Earl of Norfolk, who fought with Edward I at Falkirk against the Scots. (source).

The coat of arms is an interesting story; there are a few details on William Marshall's wikipedia entry, but I'm sure you could find additional info pretty easily via Google.

Basically, William Marshall's sons all died without male heirs to pass on their hereditary titles. As such, they were passed down through Marshall's female descendants, with the title of "Marshall" going to the Bigod family of Norfolk, while the De Valence family (depicted in the c. 1300 knights) inherited the Earldom of Pembroke.

awesome pics! i especially like the different weapons in one unit, i consider it highly accurate, every knight took the weapon of his choice, be it mace, axe, sword or even sort of warhammer! i love the diversity!!!

Damn the M&B source models fit so well on this mod

Anyway, by "Yoshimbo", do you meant "Yoshiboy"?

Thanks, I definitely agree! Great system they have going on over there on the M&B forums - wish there was more of that here on TWC to be honest...

Edited the first post to correct the name - it was actually supposed to be Yamabusi.

Glad you like what we've cobbled together!
