Tsardoms: Total War is a M2TW and Kingdoms modification that focuses on the Balkans, Near East, Eastern and Central Europe, Italy and Switzerland, starting from rise of the Serbian Tsar Stefan Uroš IV Dušan in 1345 and concluding in 1530. Tsardoms allow you to take control of over 25 factions all complete with brand new artistically crafted warriors ready to do your command! The aim is to provide the player with the best possible accuracy, in all sectors of the game, and to stretch the limitations of the M2TW engine, through scripting and AI enhancement, for a gameplay never seen before.

why do they were tripoly uniforms and not the black St. John uniforms.
The Knights of St. John switch to white cross red armor.
1119-1248 : Black cape, white cross
1248-Today: Red surcoat, white cross
2 days before my birthday and I finally get a peak at what I've been waiting so much for! :D
I have a book about the Knights' Fortifications in the Holy Land, Cyprus, Rhodes and the Dodecanese and Malta, and I've found on it an illustration of 3 different knights, one of the early 14th century and two wearing 15th century suits of armour (Gothic and Italian). Are you interested in seeing them for reference? Figured I'd give some help, and I doubt you've seen these pictures (the book is published in Malta only as far as I know).
Should I upload the picture on a forum?
Indeed, LordKronos and Kontakt_5 are correct. The knights changed their clothing in the XIIIth century to the red and white.
Kontakt_5 that sounds very interesting. We are definetly interested in seeing these photos. We have a fair bit of historical research done but more is welcome any time. Our main forum is at Total War Centre here Twcenter.net We would be really grateful if you posted the images there.
Done :)
Thanks a lot for your help!
