Preview of the Khwarezmian Empire

[King Kong]

Hi all,

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

The Khwarezmian Empire

Foundation

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.

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!

[Ataegina]

They look good, also i've read iran, so this mean the map ill be expand alot more to east ???

+rep

[Miraj]

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.

[Stinkfloyd]

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?

[el_invasor01]

Looks great KK! I like the idea of more mideast factions and the work on these models look great. Keep us posted on any news.

[republic_bohemia]

Yes a camal unti would be awsome.

[Hounf of Culan]

The armor on the shoulder of those imperial guards is amazing looking.

[Sher Khan]

A Muslim faction archer unit that isn't another Desert Archer?


.... you shouldn't have!

[aarronpeake]

All i can say is you keep coming up with the goods kk!!! amazing i pray you sort your graphics card issue out soon

[Point Blank]

fantastic!

[Son of Mao]

Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! they look really good. The mod can still get worked on though right with the Graphics card though or is this mod in it's final hours?

[Gazi Husrev-Beg]

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.

[Nightbringer]

alright, i cant wait till they come out

[Ahiga]

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

[The Mongol]

Great stuff KingKong. Your best faction to date imo.

[whhyy]

It all looks fantastic KK.

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

[republic_bohemia]

It all looks fantastic KK.

Yes I agree they do have very similar or same faces.:hmmm:
