Looks nice, but aren't some of the units a bit too similar with Vanilla?

**Mhaedros** · February 20, 2012, 07:55 AM

They are just re-textured

Yes they are, since I do not think they have to look different from vanilla. The work I've done was customizing each unit with the colours of the house (cloths, banners, shields, horses and officer), while I think the model it's ok.
I have made different models and more differentiated textures when in vanilla there was nothing already available, like Golden Cloaks, some units of the Starks and all the roster for Free Folk, Watchers of the Nights, Others.

What about the translation? Will you translate it to english before releasing or will you leave it to submods? Because well being Portuguese I understand 90% of the Italian words I've seen but many others aren't so fortunate :s

Currently I do not have in plan to translate the mod, since there is still a lot of work to do before having a full release. In the future it may be.

IDEAS FOR DOTHRAKI ROSTER

Hi, I'm starting working on the dothraki roster, but I have an issue. Martin describe them as mounted warriors with bow, therefore in my opinion every unit has to be mounted with bow. The base of this roster would be:

Bodyguard, with arak as secondary weapon
"Standard" warriors, with arak as secondary weapon
Scouts, with arak (?) as secondary weapon
I don't remeber how Martin called them, but they are Dothraki with axes which cut the heads of dead/wounded enemies after a battle; so they would have axe as secondary weapon.

And then? It would be a bit boring

, even if I do want to be consistent with the books. Anyone has suggestions/ideas about how to improve it? Thanks.

**Sulfurion Blackfyre** · February 24, 2012, 06:49 AM

Well you could add slave footsoldiers with spears and other basic weapons like that. Or even dismounted Dothraki Archers/Arak hybrids. I'm not sure they used infantry at all, I don't think so, but it'd add to the balance.. (besides didn't the books say that "unworthy dothraki" went by foot instead of horse?)

**ggggtotalwarrior** · February 24, 2012, 10:55 AM

make a few just above "peasant" level units with spears/araks and maybe a unit of infantry bowmen, which you could maybe call "Unworthy" or "Young"/"Unproven" Dothraki, who have yet to earn a horse or do not have the skill to do so.

**Deathshade** · February 25, 2012, 11:32 AM

All the Dothraky ride to war. And they have no armor, just arakh and bow.
So yes, it would be pretty boring to play Dothraki (more, they have no town, they do not build, they do not farm, etc).

**auc162** · March 01, 2012, 06:18 AM

Some interesting proposals about Dothraki, thanks. We would need at least one/more dismounted units to be used in siege/attack to cities.

ooooooohhhhhhhhhh

the idea is brilliant!

**irishviking5** · July 07, 2012, 11:41 PM

this looks really good
wish the beta was out and also translated butkeep up the good job

**MrrRandomDude** · July 08, 2012, 08:28 AM

I might know some people who can get this translated

**auc162** · July 16, 2012, 02:56 PM

Well, once finished would be great if there was someone interested in a translation. I cannot do it by myself since I will be working on the 2.0 for one more year at least.....

So good to see this MOD this isn't dead I'm guessing you are working alone and you are working way faster than the Wesotros total war team. And you are basing this of the books right not the HBO Show. The W.TW team has released a Alpha with just Little to no textured units just enough to tell the difference between the factions. You how ever have done a fantastic Job. You dedication to detail is perfect. I would hope to see this come out this year. I now mod making is very slow going. I would hope maybe You might Join the Westoros total war team and get the mod out faster by just putting you work together with there's. They have custom settlements. It would Take a lot of the pressure off of you and the Other team. Also get this out for the fans. Just maybe a idea. It may even be easier to get this into English and German.
