Thread: Sword, Spear, and Shield Mini Mod Thread!

    Le Roman Helmets...



    Town Watch and Equites pre-marian seem to have alloy helmets opposed to bronze... Is this inaccurate? for an early period?

    I want to re-add Town Watch but with a bronze helmet for pre-marian if this is more accurate... Also add a bronze helmet to Equites...

    So they all have bronze helmets... (Is bugging me for a little authenticity.)

    However...

    After some personal research... (I have 1 good Roman history book.)

    I seem to see alloy helmets/bronze helmets being worn in the same depiction...

    Does anyone know their significance in detail...?

    Interesting Fact?
    Only the emperor or triumphant generals could wear all purple, anybody else doing so would be killed.

    Hmmm from what I know the early armies wore bronze. So yes, the Equites and Town Watch would need to be changed. To make Town Watch seem more authentic, simply remove the cape. They could then represent the Rorarii which were basically a poor militia unit for the early Romans.
    The Equites unit is depicted horribly in vanilla. I suggest a new model entirely.

    Keep the Militia capes - Awesome!
    Only change those helmets if you feel the need to do something.

    lol?

    Yeh I will... I put a bronze helmet on them already.

    Interesting thing I read guys...

    Early Roman helmets were made of brass, a malleable alloy of copper and zinc.

    Later helmets were made of bronze, a very strong, hard alloy of copper and tin.

    Still later some helmets were made of iron, which is not as strong as bronze but was easier to find. The Romans worked some of their iron with carbon, but they are not thought to have developed true steel.

    So eventually they seem to have gone with iron simply because it was more avaliable to them... Very interesting.

    Good games to all.

    Strange little glitch?


    Im about ready for release but I noticed this...

    There seems to be 2 generals that spawn in Rome with the same 2 greek character portaits but different names everytime a campaign is started...

    It is actually a glitch occuring in unmodded 1.5 and there is no character entries in the strat that I see... STRANGE.

    Anyone aware of this glitch/how to fix it? Very strange...

    Im sure some of you have seen it as it seems to be occuring in plain RTW 1.5.

    Let me know if there is a fix...

    I think it's something that helps the senate survive in case their original three family members don't make it without children. In Player1's Bug Fixer mod, he corrects the names and portraits to be Roman

    The Mundus Magnus map is a pretty good option. A lot more to play with. You probably won't want it though

    It is and yes. I suggest using the map I used for My Mundus Magnus Elite Mod though. It's Mundus Magnus but there aren't a ton of no name regions in the middle of the sahara and siberia haha
