[Faction research topic]: The Great Moravia,Serbia, Anciliaries and titles.

The topic about the transition of magyare from stepp to european feudal sistem and the rise of hungarian knights institution is really intresting topic .
I agree with silesian nobel that is too early to talk about magyare/hungarian knights not to mention that in the period of Great Conflicts is the time when knighthood was still in natal stage as institution and ideology .And will take final shape to what we know it later in the crusades and after the division of the christian world to orthodox and catolics .

there is a depiction of early hungarian knight from 12 century in ofsprey , but i don't know trustfull is .

I liked this idea. It shows a lot more details than ingame shots and is also different than most of the mods.

what ? partial plate ?

this is clearly late 14th or even 15th century

PS
i think dome was talking about german mercenaries in hungarian service.

...I'm honestly not quite sure how on earth I missed that. Woops

I found one picture, but I´m not sure if it represent the knight from the late XI century or from the XII century

Too sharp, not looking good enought. If something is moded it should look better then the original idea. IF such renders are gonna be used- they should be made with 3ds max

see the difference in my rendering experiance... first one with milkshape second with 3ds max

[The Roman Republic]

perhaps you could add a poll and make it an official demand or what ever

[2Shy]

Totaly agree with Hrobatos!

[gogo t]

no this are the bulgarIANS from the Tsardoms roster Anyway if rendered with Milkshape- the pic will be just too sharp, and too sharp graphics irritate eyes

[Hrobatos]

then am I a Croat or Croatian? Just becuse there may be distinction in bulgarian history in these two term doesnt means that there is same in other languages...

Well Bulgars are nomads, bulgarians are bulgar tribes + slav tribes... its whole new nation [genes mixing ]

[Bagatyr]

Gogo don't talk nonsens .This is modern view .In history the name of bulgarians are named in the same way from their furst mention before 1900 years until know !
