lookin good guys.
lookin good guys.
wow, looks good. excited for this mod
very nice. looking forward to this mod
put this song in ur game playing with the hussars.. and u will be a man modder amongst boy modders
hey man imprtessed with your gameplay videos. have you reached out to the "deluge" guyys? they i assume greatly overlap withh ur time frame and weapons/tactics gameplay (pikes, muskets, horse pistoliers (reiters)
u r right about using pistols instead of bows- likely it was a mix until later in time they wud xclusivky use pistols as they became more reliable and quality/ Later it was common for them to even take 2 pistols.
so if u cant make variations within, just make them 1 shot pistols and the last weapon in the order... which is what pistols were used for anyways ) meaning i would go:
1. lance
2. saber
3. konceirz
4. pistol with 1 shot (so dont carry ammo)
-testing of the wings apparently doesn't make noise.
------------if you can make variation within than would do
1. lance (has to be long!)
2a. curved turkish or "hungarian" style saber
2b, cav broadsword called a "palash"
3a. konceirz
3b pistol 1 shot
3c bow
3d axe
4a pistol 1 shot
4cb arrows (smaller number of arrows preferred)
they likely werent aLL have matching weapons except for having at a minimum a lance and sword with some type of long range weapon. one way to avoid them becoming excluvly horse archers is to limit them by using my above suggested variations, and perhaps putting it last in the order?
also, i remeber in war band u can tell troops what type of weapon to use, konceriz would be ideal here cuz really only used against armored foes or units.
just a fyi the lance the hussars used was specially made tech in the polish lithuanian commonwealth:
or
-----made super long and hallowed out for weight purposes.. designed to break so not used by enemies.. and supplied by king/or towarciez (top rich nobles) so they would charge cycle back grab new spare lances and over and over again until enemy broke from morale loss...dudes probably scared as F watching your buddy getting hit by a guy in fancy armor hitting him with a 16-20 foot lance moving at 25 mph on a horse.
their horses were also uniquer horses.. (u wud be put to death for giving out their amazing horses outside country) whuc were a mix of western power with eastern athleticism/stamina--- so imagine slightly smaller horses compared to the mighty destrier of the west but with the athleticism/stamina of the arabian/turkish eastern horses
about the wings: "sheer psychological impact of a knight in armour looking like a superhuman animal that aroused not only respect but also panic in the enemy. " made them look like some type predator animal with the wings probably scared the soldiers as well as their horses
yea sir... spot on, very long thrusting (only) sword. had a special tip designed to defeat armored opponents. the hussars liked long things :) *lances *koncierz ect..
they mostly used the either the broadsword or saber, but carried these giant skinny swords horizontally on thier horse as well. good find on that pic.
found a couple the warband mods that focused on eastern europe utilized them in game. The best ones made them stab only (like a short lance).
they also would carry pistols or bows as well. they were basically equiped to eithe as a swiss army knife to fight armies from all directions being able to defeat pikes/arquebus, or heavily armored cav (long lances and konceriz likely more useful here)(from the north/west)
and/or fight the lightly armored ottomans or steppe tatars from the south/east where the bow, pistols, and sabers were more useful against them
some people argue the winged piece on the horses and later on the actual armor of the hussars were first used to defeat tatar(mongol) lassos... always wondered if thatwould actually work
naw the straight saber is a different sword than the koncierz. the koncierz is a very long thin armor piercing sword that the winged husars used. they also used the turkish and polish style saber (curved), and broadswords.
the konceriz was almost the length of a short spear but for stabbing(only) armored opponents and was used in concert with the saber or broadsword, pistols, and of course the long lances
1. Any thoughts about using gameplay additions from the pike and shot mod? Think some of their ideas would work with your work… excited for your mod.
2. Also any thoughts to bringing in the konceriz (extra long armor piercing stabbing sword for hussars?) and bring in their extra long lances (hallowed out red lances)?
3. Would be cool if, not sure it’s possiable, to make cav charges more about morale than deaths (more realistic) …. A soldier watching thief comrade hit by a hussar lance on a charge next to you would probably make one shi** their pants
The hussars used the broadsword (i think kalash) or saber, but carried these giant skinny swords horizontally on thier horse as well.
can you add the koncierz (long stabbing sword (for armored enemies) for the hussars?) and the long lance they used? cool if u could include broken lances as well...
Why not the Spanish.? I guess we can custom our own to a make a tercio
if guys can nail down pike phalanx... u will be men amongst boys
Wow been waiting for such a long time for a mod like this. Assuming you will show the Hypastis as shield and spear? Make sure u include the arogonians as bad *** skirmishes and besides the obvious companion cav you include the Thessalian cav which were amazing just below the calories mpanionan cav
So not a overhaul mod but a faction reskin?
very excited for this!
nice man. you have done some great work thus far!
anyone know of any working marches songs fife/drums for sp for this mod?
also quick q, any plans to take out stuff that wasnt historical? like 24 lbs cannons and units that didnt exist at the time? i just dont want the ai running around with skirmishers with rifles or quicklime or basically anything mid to late 1700's technology in a game based in 1600
danylo - only saw 1 script file in the download. missing script file for additional submods you reccomended. if you are too busy to upload the sscript file into google drive, can you just copy and paste here which ones i need to put in there, i can manually do it myself. would like to try all those submods, just dont know which ones need to be activated through the script file
hey danlyo - where is the user.empire_script for the addittional content, you said you put 2 in there, only saw 1 and it appears to be for your base mod (without additional content submods)
please add imperial units to the french
can you tell us how to change the nations colors?
HAVE YOU GUYS FIXED THE HORSE ARTILLERY BUG in this version? i cannot recruit them as france
