[PREVIEWS] WIP Preview Thread

[Ahiga]

Latest use was the 3rd century during the crisis, so yeah it wouldn't fit.

[Imperator of Rome]

I forget what it's called, but I'm almost 100% sure it was a helmet used mostly by cavalrymen during the late 1st and 2nd century, so not really.

It's a helmet mainly used through the 2nd-3rd Centuries.

Something similar.

In my opinion Crisis period stuff has some very ugly helmets and very cool ones (Like the second picture cavalryman).

[Maximus183]

I've started working on a side project/FotE addon that will eventually, once finished, be a part of the main FotE pack.



Can you guess what it is? Probably.

[juanplay]

mmm , Karling Total War? if it is, does this mean you will create a new Campaign using the Last Roman Campaign map?

[Hresvelgr]

Legio V Macedonia! (Okay, I did have to google the Notitia Dignitatum...)

Is this helmet design period appropriate?
If it is anyone attempting to make one?

I've seen helmets like that in itleonards imperial legions mod for Rome 2.

[Maximus183]

I'll give you a hint. It's about this guy.




And the rest of his crew:

[Eldgrimr]

Aah, the reconquest of the west! Splendid!

[bebop77]

Amazing...and please give us some proper Hun mercenaries :-)

[Hresvelgr]

There's Huns in the Bucelarii I've noticed.

[Imperator of Rome]

A Ring sword fits the 6-7 centuries. Belisarius? Also I was planning to make that weapon soon. I even poly baked the blade for my model.

Pretty ornate, but a nice texture is doable.

[Maximus183]

Alright enough with the mystery. Basically what this project will be is like a FotE overhaul for the TLR DLC campaign. So rosters and units will be redone, along with a fair amount of campaign and startpos changes. Most assets that exist in the main FotE campaign will be used since they're still relevant. However I'll largely be working on it on my own with some contributions here and there, so expect progress on this to be slower than our main updates.

[eliasandersson]

What is the timeframe or scenario for this FoTE overhaul of the TLR campaign? Very eager to hear!

[Maximus183]

Well its the same as it is originally. Ni change to the time frame at all. It's just an overhaul to the already existing scenario.

[GourmetGorilla]

Sounds excellent!

[eliasandersson]

Ahh ok, sounds amazing anyways!

[Ahiga]

[Hresvelgr]

HUNS!!!11!

Okay, sorry, I'll try not to do the whole deep breathing thing but I've always wanted to see a mod do a revamped and more historical looking (and therefore better-looking) Huns for this game. Already starting to look less monochromatic.

[Dead*Man*Wilson]

Wait, are you telling me the Huns didn't just wear all black?

[eliasandersson]

Nice! Iv'e longed to see the overhauled Huns. Isn't it hard to do research about how they looked what they wore? I can't seem to find much info there.

Otherwise splendid, can't wait to see more!
