Yep, KoH was the definite inspiration for both the KoJ and Ayyubid roster. I'm pretty sure Ahiga has a few comparison pics like that too.![]()
Glad to see you cut out that one post. That post was just mean.
What was the point of this thread?

The author proberly like the KoH movie, its also a great movie imo.
And alot of the design for KoJ faction comes from that movie.
Is it historically accurate?
more or less...
30BC: Ottaviano Augusto becomes the first Imperator, in his 44 years of principate he will bring to the empire peace and prosperity!
70AD: Vespasiano is the winner of first great empire's civil war,rebuilding Roman world after the Nero's dark ages.
98AD: Traiano becomes imperator after that the senateman Nerva adopted him,he will start a gold age for the empire getting it to biggest extension!! 117AD-180AD Adriano,Antonino Pio and Marco Aurelio administrate the empire during his richest and most pacific period, with their good administration Rome lives its golden age.
193AD: Settimio Severo wins the civil war started after the death of Commodo starting the Severan dinasty, his heirs will not be as good as him. 252-285AD Rome lives the peak of III century's crisis,onli the emperor Aureliano will be able to reunite the empire breacked in 3 parts and the great reformer Diocleziano will give to Rome militar,politic and social cohesion after decades of caos. 325AD:Costantino rules alone over the empire and christianity is for the first time accepted by the imperial government.
Well it certainly shows the conflicts and different interrests in a somewhat "realistic" view, the dresses are accurate and the 3d artists did a good job. The main characters balin and cybylla are however rather a free interpretation. While she falls in love with balian in the movie and goes with him to europe, in reality she died of disease during the siege of acre. Well you cannot let a princess die in hollywood right ?
My ERE has crushed the crussade state twice....... i hate the latins more than muslims.........

Very well said. When Byzantium finnaly fell Turks roamed free with Croats beeing the last Christians to stand as Europes wall!
And KoH is a great move and I so enyoi this mod cause of KoJ! Nice skins, general pictures and whole deal. Oh and the music is great! Real atmosphere!
And BTW some of Byzantium songs are etno Croatian and Macedonian. They sound balkanic but have nothing to do with Greek/Latin ERE origin cause they are Slavic.
I like the Kingdom of Jerusalem very much but i like also the ayyubbid sultanate of Salah al din!
