Oh my god, these are just wonderful. I can 't wait to play this as this period of the Romano-Sassanid Wars was just so intense.

I have died.. but have been arisen..!

[Caudillo87]

Hi all, hope you guys are enjoying the new year as for me I have decided on updating the entire Roman roster again because I am not satisfied with the uniformity present in their current design. Please bear with me as I throw out the trash and create something better and more realistic to the tone of the 7th century. Of course this will stall production but as an artist I must have perfection to be worthy of the praise given to me by my follow modders and fans. Thank you and will be back with more updates.

1st thing you must do is change their helmets.

Infantry helmet

Cavalry helmet


Having those two as basis you can make varietions of them.
Absinthia's armory has such helmets for his Britons.
Ask him more details.

Actually, those helmets fit the (very) late 3rd, 4th and 5th century better. For the 6th, 7th and 8th century I'd say, go for spangenhelmets.

[karaislam]

arent those helmets look like the ones in ur mod razor?

Indeed they are. A bit outside of your time frame.

[Caudillo87]

Well, I'm sure at this time they used what ever was in stock, I appreciate the advice I think the hardest part will be redesigning their bodies. The types of tunics they wore, the kinds of armor. The only units I will change will be the line infantry, all cavalry, and the excubitores. I hope the third generation units turn out better.

[Caudillo87]

This reinactor is what I'm jiving at for elite line infantry recruitable in diocese capital.

[AnthoniusII]

Actually helmets changed to simplier after the loss of Syria by Arabs.
But you can have helmet that never stoped to use.
Casis.
Its the helmet that our general uses in the pic:


Casis was used from 2nd century up to 1204 atleast.
From 5th century casis helmets were decorated with crests for officers of generals.

Hey guys really nice mod and superb looking units.
Is there any mapper in your mod team? If it isn't I would like to join to the team as a mapper if you want?

That's a re-enactor from the Fectio re-enactment group doing 4th and 5th century Romans and he's wearing a (bad) replica of the Deurne helmet which is dated around 320 AD.

For early Byzantine you're better off with this even though it's a little bit before your mod's time frame (around 530 AD):

A cassis you mean? To my knowledge that wasn't a specific type of model but rather a generic Latin term for 'helmet'.
