First screenshots for Bretonnia, with peasants.
Generic peasants, recruitable anywhere, have a lot of brown simple clothes, with some faction coloured parts. They use the colour of the recruiting faction.

Heraldic version of the Peasants, recruitable in a specific region. They still have some brown part, but more cloth are colored to match the heraldry of the Dukedom.

Men at arms screeshots.
The generic one have clothes in their recruiting faction colour, but a bit darker. They have a generic small shields.
The heraldic unit have clothes in their region of origin, with slightly brighter colours. And their small shields show the coat of arms of their dukedom.
Here is a comparison for Bretonnia generic unit (above), and Couronne heraldic units (below).

For the knights, I want to use a different approach from what is usually done. The Brettonian knights don't really have a uniform, but they use random colour and heraldic shields (from 16 possible choices). It is interesting to have this feeling of knights coming from different noble families, but it's too much, they don't have any unity, and there's no difference from one faction to the other, since they don't really have faction coloured parts.
So I want to use something different.
The knights willl still use random colour and heraldic shields from a pool, but instead of a global pool, it's a pool specifiic to each Dukedom.
Here is an example with Couronne

Moreover, the horse barding colours are also random, and they match the knights shields and coat colours.
And they have different patterns, depending on the type of knights.
For the Knights errants above, it's simple alternate colours (sometime left/right, sometime front/back, or quartered) + an occasional cross.
More patterns tomorrow with other types of knights.
Here are the final barding patterns for the knight Errants. Each type of knights will have 5 different patterns (combined with 8 heraldic colours for each dukedom for a total of 40 different horse barding for each units, if you count 4 types of knights, that's 160 different barding for each dukedom, and with 14 dukedom, 2240 in total!)

Grail knights in Couronne heraldic colours.
Helmet with golden parts, cape with the Grail symbol, shields wiith heraldic colours of Couronne, but also Grail heraldry.
For the barding, they have rich generic heraldic symbol + the grail, and fleur de lys on horse armor and saddle.

Previous screenshots were for the Heraldic Knights, recruitable only in a specific region (the samples where all for Couronne).
Now I show previews of the generic units, weaker, but recruitable in any region.

Foot knights. You may not most of them have swords, but a few have a mace or an hammer.
They don't have the crest of the mounted knights.

I will start working on the icons and portholes for the Knigths, and do all the heraldic shields and knights of the realm bardings. Only Couronne is done for the moment.
