    Default Kinjo's Parthian Swordsmen mod (Updated 9-25-13)

    So after playing my Parthian campaign I wasn't really too excited that my Parthian swordsmen looked like the Greek version. I decide to give them an Eastern look so they would resemble their unit cards a little better.

    -Added Parthian beards
    -Replaced helmets with eastern spangen helms
    -Added steppe caps for variation plus that is what they look like they are wearing in the unit cards
    -Replaced their mail with iron scale

    I have a question: How can I change what units look like? So the armours they wear, helmets or sword types? (I have never modded in my life >.<)

    Well you will need to download the pack file manager then read the sticky thread from Jack Lusted he explains how to change the units look. Basically you extract the file you want to mod as well as the files that might contain the armor you want to use and go from there.

    Glad you like it, I do plan on re-doing some of the units for Pontus.

    Awesome! How is reskining of their textures going? Is it properly possible yet? Adding new models? Would this now be adding individual equipment parts, and combining them into a unit in text files?

    Please do more! Parthia deserves to look even better!

    One idea, perhaps add the head-wrap from the archer unit parthia has into this mix, for increased variation!

    Unfortunately the beards will clip through the head warps if I was to add them.

    Nice mate Perhaps change it to Movie pack format? So it's multiplayer compatible?

    By the way Kinjo, there are the Persian hoplites still ingame if you want to add them. Look up eas_persian_hoplites.variantmeshdefinition

    You'd need to create entries for them, but I am planning on doing that in the near future.

    Looks way better, only the armours could need some variety. They're looking all the same and somehow to shiny and bright for Parthia.

    Also I would love if you can give Carthagian troops some love and maybe add some iberian/numidian troops to their rooster.

    For those who wanted a little more variation there are now 3 chest piece variations. (the vanilla unit only had one)

    New Version

    To get this version of the unit download the New Parthian Swordsmen attachment.
