Hi all,

A little preview of the (temporarily) final faction that I'm making:

The Khwarezmian Empire




Foundation

Quote:
Khwarezm Shahs[1] (Persian: خوارزمشاهیان, Khwārezmšhāḥīān, "Kings of Khwarezmia") was a Persianate[2][3][4] Sunni Muslim dynasty of Turkic mamluk[5] origin which ruled Central Asia and Iran, first as vassals of the Seljuqs and later as independent rulers in the 11th century. The empire survived until the Mongol invasion in 1220.[1] The dynasty was founded by Anūsh Tigin Gharchāī, a former slave of the Seljuq sultans, who was appointed the governor of Khwarezm.[1] His son, Qutb ud-Dīn Muhammad I, became the first hereditary Shah of Khwarezm.

quote from wikipedia.com


(Late Era) Starting Position

---- Turkmenistan & Iran ---

some settlements:







(Temporary) Unit Roster

Archery Range


Peasant Archers


Saracen Archers




Persian Archers










Barracks


Afghan Javelimen




Persian Spearmen






Irani light Infantry




Ghulams




Noble Spearmen




Dismounted Imperial Guard





Stables


Turkomans




-----

Kwarizmian Heavy Cavalry




Imperial Guard




Armored Horsearchers




... some more units will follow...



Unfortuntely, those are last pictures from my old "modding machine" since the Kwarizmians killed my graphics card! No joke! This is also the reason for my rare replies in the recent time!

Anyway, I hope I can continue the work and finish the details on them soon...

Suggestions and feedback always very appreciated, of course!

Wow! Great job. Looks like we've got some competition.

Urgench? So that means you've expanded the map quite a bit.

Keep up the great work.

Maybe they could get a camel unit too?

Perhaps some existing mercenaries from around that region could be in their roster?

I suggest a more powerful graphics card if that's any help?

Finally, I have awaited something so good to challenge/kill my graphic card (beyond BC ofcourse). They look pretty cool. Love helmets (patterns), shields, armor. You are nailing it. If you can work little bit with Turks and Egyptians (estetics) as you are creating Kwarzemirians, that would be great. Pretty plz man... They need total remake, well, after these shots and tha are WIP, vanilla Turks and Egyptians need work on. Also I could use some allies against mongols, how can I invade Europe whn mongols are on my throat, just as I can pacify them, Timurs invade...argh!!!

PS! Faces look awsome, but could need slight variation maybe on some pics.

I like the abundance of heavy foot archers, and of course all the other units too. Looks like a really cool roster.

It all looks fantastic KK.

My only gripe is that the faces of the Persian Archers and Spearmen all look the same.
