Thanks so much for the time and effort given to this mod.
I have one suggestion though ..

Due to the huge amounts of units, it is very hard to find and recruit a specific unit, be it in campaign or in custom battle. It would be great if there will be some kind of AOR system units like in Masters of Europe mod of Napoleon Total war.

For example, if we play as UK, we will be able to recruit region specific British line infantry: England, Scotland (Highlanders infantry), Ireland, Americas, India, all of those units wearing the same redcoats. Also there will be Hessian, Hanoverian and Brunswick infantry, their availability will be by AOR system or tech enabled. If UK capture Paris, then UK will be able to recruit AOR French Line infantry of Paris.

It is just a suggestion.. and it would require a lot of work though..

Thanks again for the great mod. :)

It is always amazing to see the Numenoreans. One thing.. aren't these guys wearing the same breastplate of Aragorn from the coronation? I think such kind of armour should be exclusive to the nobility or higher social class. Simple soldiers should stick to simpler and more common breastplates.

I have some questions and some bugs I found.

Question: Will there be some kind of AOR recruitment for English Earldoms? Is there any plan for the English Earldoms?

Bug1: English Bill units: I deactivated phalanx formation and charge at the enemy. During the charge animation, weapons are missing from their hands.

Bug2: (may be): On Campaign, when upgrade to Tier2, English general character stays the same model (13th century knight with mail) when their general unit is already upgraded to Tier 2. I have only played England campaign for now. It might be same for other nations. I am not sure.

In the YouTube video from Jackie Fish, the infantry fight seems pretty fast when the two battle lines meet. In real world, I think it would take a significant time and effort to successfully kill a mail-clad man in hand to hand combat. But this is just an opinion.

Riveted mail!!! It is very nice to see such detailed work.

the very best

In vanilla, shields are with a plain brown paint by default, and then portrays the factional colour/banners if the wielder belongs to a certain faction.
How will this mod handle this mechanic? Will there be pre-existing faction equipment, such as Crusader Kite Shield (with a cross), Jerusalem Surcoat (e.g. Light Blue surcoats as seen in KoH), and Roman Helmet etc.. with a fixed paint texture on them? Or will there be dynamic equipment colours/texture based on faction colour, like Vanilla?

Hope you understand my question. :D

Hello there, I am having an issue.
I cannot find Separatists in skirmish battles.
Moreover, when I get into galactic conquest mode, the first default faction is Separatists but when I start to choose faction by the drop down menu, I can then see only four factions: Empire, Republic, Rebels and Mandalorians.

They wore a full Gondorian breastplate over the mail and under the surcoat if I am not wrong. If you are referring to the designs we see in the Fellowship of the Rings prologue, I would like to suggest you please take a look at it again... just saying in case if you had overlooked...

Edit: a breastplate (not meant to say it was Gondorian. It should be Anorian)

Oh.. I am very glad to hear that. Thanks for the reply and thanks again for the mod.

Anyways, I am a fan of the designs and costumes used in "Kingdom of Heaven" Movie and I haven't seen any creation of that level again anywhere until now.

After seeing your mod, I feel your models are even better and I am very impressed with your design choices. I think there are some minority people on this planet, who feel happy and satisfied when they see a picture of a 1100AD Soldier with a nice, dark riveted mail coat. I have a feeling that we are one of them.

I am concerned with pole weapons which when sheathed, stick to the back of the soldiers. I am aware of the gameplay limitations and AI complications, but I think it would be nice if you guys made it that these pole weapons cannot be sheathed, but drop to ground if not used.

It is ugly to see long sticks emerging from the soldiers' backs.
But still, it is only a suggestion, not that important.

If I was his foe at that time, I will flee at first sight of him.

in the pic is an early gondor soldier without surcoat.
sorry if am being annoying, I am new to the comment sections :-D

Numenorean infantrymen wore breastplate over chainmail. We can see it in the movies.
