- Preview I - The Romans -

[Flavius Vegetius Renatus]

Thank you Gaiten

Sometimes you as modder you need stimulus and feedback.

To me all the units look amazing but I must say I have no expertise or knowledge in ancient arts. Im drawing my conclusion on comparing your models to the ones in current version. Great detail and totally new look.

Numbers, battle value and only few places to recruit them.

Any chance for Herculani or Jovii or were those Palatine units gone by 410?

Your units look real good Gaiten. You can bet i will wait and download Ruina. Specially for the opportunity of playing the Eastern Roman Empire, but your work on the several families of the Sassanids look so interesting, that i will certainly try them. +Rep

I have not named the Roman units for certain existing Units. However, their shield symbols are used.

[Gäiten]

Sertorio: You are welcome. It was challenging to develop a unique recruiting system for the Sassanians for their unique society of tribes, noble and Royal agnatic Clans, vassal kingdoms and Sassanian household troops. I think I did a good job, but you will see soon.

It is progressing well and will get released before September 3rd.

Thats amazing, finally I will be able to lead my brave Frankish warriors to conquest beyond the Rhine or build an independent Slavic kingdom in the shadow of Huns or find new home for Vizigoths...

And here is the next mini preview:

A Roman skirmisher unit, the Plumbatarii.


Enjoy!

Details of the clothes and helmet are amazing!

[Agent007]

Very, very good! The detail is great indeed.

[Gäiten]

Thank you very much.
The funny detail is that the units without body armour have been much trickier to design due these wonderful patterns on their clothing.

Nice update! The helmet looks great

[Gäiten]

You like Roman helmets , do not you?

[tomySVK]

Yes I do and you do them great Keep up the great work

[Gäiten]

I thought you may interested in another sneak preview?
So what about a Roman Family Member (not mounted)?



Enjoy and feel free to comment.

[tomySVK]

Great work again! And the Persian helmet in your new avatar looks amazing!

[Gäiten]

Thank you.

What do you think which unit to belong this helmet?

[tomySVK]

I think to the Zhayedan /Immortals/, because in my opinion it´s high-guality helmet And they have magnificient model in Eastern preview - my first faction to play will be Sassanids because of them

I suppose 85% is a good figure... if the other 15% won't take too much Guessing it's some units and coding-related stuff that are missing, right? Keep up the good job!

[Joar]

Guessing it's some units and coding-related stuff that are missing, right?

And a massive amount of 2D work...

But I expect to finish any year now.
