IB2 VANDALS CAMPAIGN SCREENSHOTS

[Magister Militum Flavius Aetius]

Cornuti Seniores are a good palatina unit in IBFD BRG III. Are they in this mod?
Also, I like the Idea of a new Auxilia unit. I may download this mod.

[Vardan the Great]

Can you show me something on Armenia?

[Slaytaninc]

The currently released Campaign doesn't include Armenia.

[midnite]

The map in Ib2 does not stretch to include Armenia. The next patch for IB2 will probably include Britain and northern Gaul.

You want to say that Armenia won't be in IBII?

Hi Vardan SPARAPET
Armenia will be in the IB2 (EoR) campaign

INVASIO BARBARORVM 2: (EoR) RESTITUTIO IUSTINIANI

[Jaytee]

Some absolutely stunning pictures. I especially liked the pics by 'Midnite', loved the chaos seen in your pics. The modding team seem to have done an excellent job!

[Emperor Caesar]

You guys should include lorica segmantata legionnaires because they still had those types of soldiers with strip armor, large rectangular shields and gladius

Emm no. Well, at least if you don't believe vanilla BI, then no. Even earlier on, they didn't use LS as much as Hollywood likes to make it seem like.

Thank you for your suggestion but were prefer not to for the known historical evidence during the fifth century doesn't support this.

This about the 10Th thread that you have said that now ! On each occasion it has been suggested you provide references to this rather outlandish statement of fact !

[SeniorBatavianHorse]

There was no lorica segmentata in this time period, or rectangular shields, or gladii.

[Emperor Caesar]

oh yes there was

[SeniorBatavianHorse]

Please provide a reference for that statement. If there was, then that flies in the face of all research on the subject.

[Magister Militum Flavius Aetius]

LS was stopped production in 286, and was cannibalized to make chain and scale mail

[Magister Militum Flavius Aetius]

Including LS in IB II or IB is the equivelant of giving the barbarians 12 gauge shotguns

[charles the hammer]

The barbarians dont have shotguns now? I thought this mod was supposed to be accurate

[Bernardius]

This is from Wikipedia:

The currently accepted range for the use of the armour is from about 9 B.C. (Dangstetten) to the late 3rd century A.D. (León). Its use was geographically widespread but chain mail may have been more common at all times.

As you can read here: the LS never replaced the LH!

Chainmail was lighter (about 10 kg instead of at least 13 kg of the Ls), more flexible and much faster to dress with!

[Praefectus praetorio]

Chainmail was lighter (about 10 kg instead of at least 13 kg of the Ls), more flexible and much faster to dress with!

Well, according to Adrian Goldsworthy (The Complete Roman Army) lorica hamata (10 kg - 15 kg) was a little heavier than segmentata (~9 kg). Where did you get that info?

[Bernardius]

As it is said in my post, i got the info from Wikipedia!

There are different types of the hamata and in this wiki artikle it is said, that in the late romen period mostly the lighter version (max 10 kg) was used.
on the internet i found a short chainmail with only 6 kg!

but anyway, as a matter of fact, chainmail succeded over segmentata...
