    Default SPQR named legions skins

    First Id like to make clear that I understand LT's rule about no sub mods, but for my own personal use, I would like to have a variety of skins for the legions. Personally I believe it makes it more interesting, and helps me enjoy the game more. Is it possible to do this? Please excuse my limited modding experience

    You can make your own or borrow some from somebody else.

    Remember that the RS team used some complicated tricks to raise the number of units allowed, but I don't know, Sulla & co's SPQR unit add-on also has quite a few new units, so it might be achievable.

    Good idea IMO.

    But your going to need 28 different skins. There it becomes tricky, like in adding new units.

    So ok have any of you played the mod Caesar imperator? well if you notice all the republican skins? id like to use similar ones (some are available in the rome skin download section) Like for example ferrata would have the cool yellow shields and hispanic legion the same skin (just an example) so I dont need a skin for each legion, just a bit of variety.

    So for the imperial ones, i was looking around, and there are these scale armor legions, so I would use those for eastern legions (Greece etc) The more hollywood looking ones around gaul and Spain etc. There are about 6 Imperial skins I saw there.

    So yeah I was wondering if i could use a skin for each 3 legion numbers instead of the same skins for alllll legions of a reform? I tried earlier this afternoon but seems a bit complicated id appreciate if anyone has an idea of how to do this.

    No i dont think he was talking about lorica segmentata.

    The scale armor was invented by persians, i belive. it was used very often in one of the arms, to serve as a shield, as well give more freedom of movements. Was very used by persian cavalry.
    later on was adopted by romans. you can see those on gladiators. But historicaly the legions stationed on the eastern parts of the empire, as well thracia. used this kind of armor. Allthough a diferent version i belive. im not sure about this , but i belive i read this in some place.

    @RS Fanboy

    Its always a good idea to PM @LT1956 about it. The genius has all the answers.

    @YouDied

    Surely, "Scale armor" is this modern English term thrown around. What can you do, the Romans lost at some point.
