While some of the devs are working hard on strategus, those who are in charge of items dont do nothing.Why, when theres still things to do in this are.
While some work on strategus, others can use their free time and work on a new patch that will be completly dedicated to equipment in crpg. So in short EQUIPMENT PATCH
equipment in crpg needs major filtering
1.decreasing the time range of items- generic clothes and mails to transitional armours would be best imo(if you want it that hard, you can keep it as it is now, you filthy devs)
2.removing crappy looking items like fat plate,black plate, black mace dildos etc(some of them can be saved if new textures are made)
3.adding lots of new items from the appropriate period. warband community has more then enough of those.
