    Default wrong flags for Tuaithe of Eire

    It looks to me as your mod is using the Anglo-Irish flags and not the Gaelic flags which this mod looks to be set at and also its "Tír na hÉireann" not "Tuaithe of Eire".
    other then that this is by far the best mod for the Gaelic and has there fighting style down 100%

    Hail Philip!

    Thank you for your flag pointers. Please post some samples of what early medieval Irish flags and heraldry might be like and I'll have a go at redoing them. That goes of EVERY faction folks if you have better suggstions (and even better - good examples)

    Hope you have a cool yule and a prosperous 2 O 1 1 DLV gang!

    What about this one? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lordship_of_Ireland

    I guess it's a Norman flag. I'm having trouble finding a source for an Irish one.

    Thanks Philip and Taiji,

    The golden hard on the blue backgorund then is pretty solid then, aye? The quartered shield design may require a look at. I'll see what I can do in the new wee while.

    Until then, please advise.

    The Lordship of Ireland or Tiarnas na hÉireann as I like to call them are other Irish faction that are Anglo-Irish.

    harp is it? the Harp in a blue background is once again for The Lordship of Ireland and the green is for the Gaelic.

    Feel free to suggest what symbols and livery for this faction's banner and the heraldry for the faction's shield.

    So after starting this thread and posting numerous flags, what actual images should be on shield and banner (seeing the harp is on both at the moment)?
