    Icon10 Small Sassanid Unit Pack

    I really wanted to play as the Sassanids but all the units were just so damn ugly *so* obviously I had to do something about it.
    This is a small Sassanid unit pack I've been working on, should be ready to go within a few days. I'm pretty new to PFM modding so this has been a bit of a learning curve for me.

    I originally wanted to do a unit pack AND unit reskin for the Sassanids but really there is so little decent looking eastern gear to choose from that I abandoned the reskin, rather than just cloning units. I'll just have to wait like everyone else for more talented modders to take on the challenge.

    Champion Cavalry:

    Sassanian Clibanarii:

    I'm really not final on the names yet so if anyone has any name ideas for the "Champion" units I'm open to suggestions.

    Looking good, are those new units or changed unit equipment?

    I like the roster so far, just not the look of 'em. So a reskin mod would be great

    I like the style so far, i love those chainmail helmets!

    Wow looking great! Plz upload the mod and try to make some more wingy helm units :d
    By the way it's better to name those archers kamandaran e shahi and the mounted one should be Savaran e shahi

    Thanks! Those names sounds good but what do they mean? Also what all should be capitalized?

    Tonight no, but after I finish this unit pack sure. I wouldnt mind doing a small custom reskin for you of whatever you want. I love this game, but I know how much it sucks to play with units you don't like.

    All new units, I even made custom unit cards for 'em And thanks, I'm glad ya like it.
    Also I might still try a unit reskin for the entire faction but if I do I won't be able to start on it until sunday. Also I've seen that robtim92 is already doing his own Sassanid reskin and if he's planning on releasing that anytime soon then I probably won't bother to start on my own.

    Rob said on his thread that he was taking a break so I don't think we'll see his reskin mod for a long time.

    Kamandaran e shahi means Royal archer.
    Savaran e shahi means Royal rider/knight.
