Teutonic Knights ...

maybe this can be useful if you decide the reskin of the vanilla teutonic faction

Damn they look good. Battered shield designs ROCK! Haven't they been reskinned already though?

There is a reskin, but it isn't used in SS...

BTW Echad, the movie "Teutonic Knights" was pretty good; I found English srt subtiles for the two parts.

I'm using those skins in SS, and also converted NE and SE siege crews over to one of them..EN
-peasant padded merc..with a few touchups..as soon as I get my system fully back I'm going to finish up doing some more merc mods..they are so pale and lame. These guys are out marching in the sun and dirt all day, not hiding in a dungeon.

You can basically copy all the textures over to SS..except the loading screens..or else SS will boot with Kingdoms Teutonic campaign screen!

The guy with the bowl haircut needs fixing..he looks like he's wearing a bald wig with hair on top ;-)

Zbyszko has sworn to avenge the death of Danusia's mother at the hands of the invaders. When he is captured by the Teutonic hordes, it is Danusia who comes to his rescue. Shortly thereafter, Danusia and Jurandt are captured and tortured. Zbyszko embarks upon a long odyssey to rescue his beloved, but by the time he finds her, she has been driven insane. After three hours' worth of Knights of the Black Cross (Polish title: Krzyzacy), the viewer might also feel a little touched in the head. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide"

"After three hours' worth of..."

Heck that's too short.

Andrei Rublev was too short ;-)

Ok this is a WIP merc guncrew...now that I think of it, I think Treb and Eng gun crews should be based on the Men at Arms models, with the Tommy helmets and some armour..I havent removed all the crosses yet, full credit goes to Rex Colbat, btw.

They still need a lot of touching up in certain spots.

Postscript: this entire 178 man unit was wiped out by the Byzantines east of Constantinople; they were on the way to reinforce a Kievan "fort" besieged by a Byzantine stack, when they were intercepted by a 900 unit stack.

I have Krzyzacy, like you in two part .avi's, but I could only find English subtitles for this film for a different three-part version. I am trying to get hold of the three part version instead so I can finally watch this film, but in the mean-time it would be nice if you could tell us where we can get the two .srt files for the two part version we both have? If not, then as they are only tiny text files, would you be kind enough to upload them here please? I assume there would be no problems with Copyright violation for posting subtitle text files? Thanks.

removed
comment got useless after changes

Well, afaik the siege crews for different factions occupy a lot of faction slots... Maybe you'll do some universal siege crews for each culture type for us to free up those unit slots as a side project to this?

MOst of them just need new faces; a couple of years ago I did a little of my own modding for BF2 and a few other games and a had a really nice skin collection; there were some really well done Russian, German and Arabic and African faces that could be modified for use in M2, wish I still had all those...
