Dracolisk Cataphracts (Tevinter Imperium tier 2 heavy cav) image - Dragon Age: Total War mod for Medieval II: Total War: Kingdoms
Dragon Age: Total War is a currently unreleased Dragon Age-themed total conversion mod for Medieval 2 Total War: Kingdoms. The mod features 23 unique factions throughout various locations across the continent of Thedas each featuring unique unit rosters, faction mechanics, scripts, campaign conditions, gameplay styles, characters, and much more. Dragon Age: Total war aims to provide a distinct and meticulously lore-friendly yet highly familiar insight into BioWare's world of Thedas, all the while expanding further on the lore of Thedas and exploring areas previously unseen in any form of Dragon Age media. All rights to Dragon Age belong to EA and it's subsidiary studio, BioWare.
The Dracolisk, already a rather unnerving creature on it's own, becomes a horrifying sight on the battlefield when armored in the well-forged black veridium mail of Imperial blacksmiths. Experienced lancers are often allowed to armor their mounts in full lamellar plate and fight as the powerful dracolisk cataphracts. The cataphracts form the armored core of a legion's cavalry wing and are used to great effect against the infantry of the Imperium's detractors. When used correctly in combination with phalangite units, the dracolisk cataphracts can be used in hammer and anvil tactics to quickly demolish enemy lines or opposing cavalry formations. "Manaveris Dracona", or "long live the dragons", is the thundering warcry erupting from the lips of these fierce cavaliers as they charge into a doomed enemy formation.
Okay guys, honest opinion here, everything pretty much looks perfect, so have a drink you legends
I will say that the feet on the Dracolisks still need a little polishing, but otherwise, I'm pretty satisfied with how they came out. :-)
They're masterworks all -- you can't go wrong!
I really can't wait for this mod to come out.
Inspiration for the helmets?
There was a HODA Tevinter battlemage concept with this type of helmet, uploaded here:

Have you considered making the bars less prominent? Example. Making them the eye socket covers while making the helmet look more like the cataphract helmet from rome one?
Why are the spikes linked so close in the picture..
