crowns.. would be awesome.

Make them ridiculously expensive though.. 80k?

Would be great for guild leaders.. Guild would pay for it.

Crowns! NAO!

Or only a Strategus Lord can wear it. I would love to see a bascinet with a crown like Lionheart's classic image.

cmp you misanthropic cynic!
 
Why are you giving Tears such a hard time? It's not like he'll ever change anyway.
 
Anyhow, any goodie tidbits on future items you can share?

The armor of the Byzantine Empire's bodyguard unit, Spartharii, should be added! Gold and silver. It would look absolutely fabulous.

There are no pictures, only written accounts. However, Stainless Steel for example has one interpretation of how they might've looked.

So the only thing that got you interested in the armour, excluding that one interpretation, is the fact that it's made in gold and silver?
 
Anyone else seeing this?

Awesome mod. 6.4 I assume?

Roman ARMORS! so I can be really out of time with my Horse Crossbow build. Or maybe a crown so I can show, I'm the king of NA HC's!

6.4 of course, with a little modification toning down those fucking heretics.

Well I must admit I am disappointed with the blanket "no", but I am not the one working on this mod so I can't truly complain. All I can say is that it is a shame those particular things seem out of place amongst Deli caps, samurai armour, black plate armour, flying carpets, morions, norman shields etc. I probably would have made a better point if I wasn't drunk but ah well. I'll cook my korma and eat it.

I'd like to see some very late Roman gear.  Much of it was medieval in it's general structural style (though often of a significantly different chemical make-up) but had a distinctively Graeco-Roman aesthetic.  I think it would work well as a proto-medieval series of armours and scratch, in a thematically acceptable way, the Roman-themed itch many players seem to have.

Also, for those curious, "cataphract" was originally written κατάφρακτος in Ancient Greek.

I'm aware that I used the modern Greek alphabet in this but the original characters are silly
