UNITS ROSTERS discussion

[Hellvard]

Well, to be honest I would rather not share entire rosters before releasing my own mod, but I can share some units with SSHIP, to show my gratitude for Lifthrasir's help with making animations pack for AMaM For example these Brabanzones I have shown few posts earlier, but if MWY is saying that there is no room for two flemish units, I can give you my version of flemish pikemen from Sandy's mod:

Hungarian and serbian units are from Tsardoms and Magyar mod, so you can ask them for permission to use in SSHIP, I improved them only a little bit.

For me all improves about units rosters are welcome but this is decision of Lifth and MWY, they are sship developers and they should decide and contact with you and tsardoms and magyar mod...who know maybe they have some surprises about this...

Also lithuanians,teutonic and serbian generals are cool, this could be added also..

BULGAR FACTION

i would like see in sship a bulgarian faction, i know that all factions slots are full, but in my opinion, it could eliminate portugal faction because is pretty similar to castille and aragon factions(almost same units) and also portugal could be represented as rebel faction in their settlements...Coimbra(portuguese kingdom) with some portuguese units, for me is better make a bulgarian faction with a mixed roster between byzantines, serbians, nomads...and also this will make for funny the balcans region..maybe make bulgarians for late campaign will be good,otherwise would be make more unique bulgars units in the region of Bulgaria
here some images about bulgarian roster...

It is from a historical recreationist group called varangian guard that represent the medieval roman army, the painter of such images told me about give more information but also they obtain information in historical books as osprey publications and other historical books so you can import it for your historical roster, i wish see it hehe

....(2º part of armours)

[achilles-91]

Muslims, Mongols and Cumans need to be able to recruit gallows. Also mongols temples need to be buildable to upper level, like huge cathedrals and mosques.

Another thing, Mongols should be able to convert to Islam. This should be possibility, not definet state.

Will we see forts introduced to represent more major cities ?

[stevietheconquer]

but some mongols in the rus lands schould be able too convert too orthodox christen

[achilles-91]

I agree with that. There should be possibility betwen orthodoxy and islam for player. While AI mongol get it randomly. That would bring much diversity in games.

[j.a.luna]

Yes achilles,this would be great if mongols could change religion,also for lithuanians when they conversed into christianism, but i remember that Lifth said this was so difficult make it in the game...

[Lifthrasir]

I haven't found any proof that Mongols converted in a signifant amount to Orthodoxy
If we consider that Mongols converted to Orthodoxy in a similar manner as they did for Christianity, then this is somehow marginal and there's no point to implement that in game.

Regarding the option of changing religion, the point is not that it is complicated but rather to guess on how it will affect the script. We try to keep the script as light as possible to keep the AI turn duration as short as possible.

Ok the second part of armours is coming for new year hehe, here some pictures about different armours about s.XIII-XV, note the evolution of different parts of european armours...ENJOY!!!
