Mount&Blade; Warband Ottoman Scenario V2

Mod review

(before you read take note their are details about what Im on about in either these () brackets or these [] brackets, also I do realise that this mod does focus on the ottomans but this is all I ask anyway on with the show!)

I have to say with this mod there are very few things that I can say that I am annoyed with or have concerns about.

I have to say as a bit of a history nerd for this time period I am a little bit upset with the abundent lack of drum roll please... WINGED HUSSARS, for god sake you've got one as the backdrop on the esc menu screen how hard is it to add them (and their gear God please add their gear for us to wear and use their pretty sabres! [side note with the sabres please make sure would add ones with thumb rings that would awesome if you do!]) I mean I have every respect for the things you've done to this mod thus far but please add the Winged Hussars (also panceone if you could that would be epic!). [another side note with the winged hussars make sure you get their horses right which means a mix of breeds like the Warlander and the Friesian].

Also the Polish faction could be way more well, Polish! take a look at some of the noblemens gear for that era and make the Hetmens wear it!

Add the knee high riding boots, the pretty fur caps and most two most important things (this is if you add the winged hussars as well) The animal skins drapped over their shoulders and the 8 metre (yes 8 metre) long sashes they wore around their waists (also a side note the insignia of their unit around their neck, if you need sources I can supply I am here to help!).

I know I have gone on about Poland for a while but thats one of the points I had to touch on, another point I would like to mention is the lack of matchlock and wheel-lock carbines, rifles and pistols in the mod even though the main menu screen has a Turk holding a matchlock by the looks of it and I would love the ability to use these weapons in game. (The museum of Warsaw has some beautiful surviving copies you could use as a start point! also that and remeber this period was about displaying your wealth so make it pretty!)

Over all the mod you have made is something which you can be extremely proud of as it is the best mod I've played in a long time so keep the good work fellas! All I ask is that these small or major in some cases but these changes be made so that it can be the best mod it can be!

I would like to hear back from the modders if they do read this not because Im angry but because I would like to thank them myself.

Thanks for reading to this history nerds ramblings fellas

Can't wait to read/ hear update notes and yet again Cheers for your time and effort in this mod!
