    Default Medieval Roman Empire??

    Hi!!

    i wonder if somebody will take a chance with a mod based on this questions...

    what if the Roman Empire never fell? what if the Romans conquer Germany and parts of Russia?

    i mean, i was wondering about a middle age-roman empire mixture, but not with the a decadent army full of barbarians, i mean a real roman medieval army whit never seen special units in each culture, dividing the empire in different kingdoms (regnum)..i'm just playing with that idea it could be some sort sci fi version of the middle ages

    i'm drawing many sketches...here you've got 2 of them...









    seeya people...

    naaa! not Byzantium, i mean new designs of lorica segmentata and an evolution of the imperial gallic type helmets, not the byzantine armour and weapons, and not a single faction for the entire roman empire but many different factions (i'm thinking about 10 or 11 of them)...i should upload some more sketches whit the heavier legionaries and the segmentatas i'm thinking about.

    Your idea sounds nice to me.

    But you can't bring it to life alone. In my opinion you will need a huge team for this and it will cost you a bunch of time.

    well, I've been thinking about this mod for several months and drawing and writing a lot, i already fill a notebook with many ideas, and i can design like 7 or 8 skins in a single night, maybe a few more, is not about the time or the team, i can do all the scripting by myself i even design a stats system for the units and armors so the things are balanced, the battle are much much longer than in any other mod and the work is faster, i just need to use that stat system and the units can be finished in minutes.

    I also made the ui cards and the music, and even some videos, not for this mod off course but i already know how to in any case... the only problem is i can't model so the one thing i need is at least a single modeler, because with a single model i can work several units.

    huge team? nahh just one modeler, the rest of things is easy for me, is hard work, but easy to do. Just need patience, i think with a modeler working for me right now i can upload a "demo" in 7 or 15 days.
    With all the factions but just a few units for each one.

    War changed and so the roman equipment...
    But it would be nice to imagine a world in medeival with clasic roman troops!
    TGC in order to continue its development seak one or more desicated scripters to put our campaign scripts mess to an order plus to create new events and create the finall missing factions recruitment system. In return TGC will give permision to those that will help to use its material stepe by step. The result will be a fully released TGC plus many mods that will benefit TGC's material.
    Despite the mod is dead does not mean that anyone can use its material
    read this to avoid misunderstandings.

    IWTE tool master and world txt one like this, needed inorder to release TGC 1.0 official to help TWC to survive.

    ...as i already say a few posts ahead...i'm NOT talking about Byzantium or nothing like that, i'm talking about pagan gods, let's say Christ never appear on screen, or maybe rebel and escape from crucifixion...i don't know...i'm thinking about some sort of "mars templars" and pagan units, like that.

    And as i already say, i'm drawing heavier legionaries whit theoretical evolutions of the lorica segmentata and the imperial gallic type helmets. Nothing like the two drawings uploaded in the first post, is more like a medieval helmet with cover for the face, and bizantine troops are too "oriental" in comparison with my ideas.

    Another item: the mod history (not the game itself) will start in 200 dc, as the "lowest" point of roman decay, and then a new dynasty of emperors will restore the old glory and conquer Germany and reach Russia, well i'm not here to reveal the arguments of the mod, is just wonder if someone will take a shot whit a "sci fi" mod whit cool and new units and armors never seen, because as i see most of the mods always try to reach REALISM and i'm a little tired about that, and this is the only option i got if i want to design a roman empire as i like.

    BTW Anthonius i'm checking your mod right now, i always like Byzantium, but is not what i'm trying to do here, hope you get it...

    heavy armored legionary (this will not be the standard legionary with a normal segmentata, just a heavier version good against projectiles and heavy cavalry)

    Sometimes both sides are wrong. Unfortunately most people do not understand this and argue endlessly.

    Have you checked the the THERA thread there you can see how I imagined the Romans to look like in medieval times and you can use the roman models if they suit you

    i really appreciate that Caki! thanks a lot! but i'm afraid not a single one matches one of my sketches, perhaps i should try to build this mod based in RTW, i should find much more modelers for that version...:hmmm:
