"The Elder Scrolls: Total War" is a total conversion of Medieval 2 Total War - Kingdoms. It gives you a glimpse into the world of The Elder Sсrolls, as the head of one of the 20 factions fighting for dominance over Tamriel...
Stunning models! Retaining some greek influences with the horse-hair helmets, and roman ones with the shields. I absolutely adore the strong metallic hue in the breastplates.
The name seems a tad clunky though; hour ought to have a demonstrative pronoun before it to be grammatically correct - 'Order of the hour'. But you normally have orders dedicated to specific people or places rather than abstract concepts like time. I assume this is based off the giant hourglass under the Imperial City Palace? Is there a canonical reference?
They are actually a canonical order of knights sworn to defending Akatosh from TES II Daggerfall, and were joinable if you joined the church of Akatosh.
Edit - Actually your right lol, it should be order of the hour not order of hour. Modders are Russian I believe, so just a translation issue I assume.
Also they appeared in ESO, in the Gold Coast. From what I can tell they did a great job making the armor look exactly like how I remembered ESO did it.
Ah I see. I'm not versed in specific Daggerfall or ESO lore, so thank you for the pointer. Although I'd maintain that lore writers ought to have named it either the 'Order of Akatosh' or 'Order of the Hourglass' as knightly orders are never set up with names dedicated to vague abstract concepts, only to specific concepts like the 'Order of Chivalry' or tangible things, particularly saints.
Regardless, its good to see more obscure lore elements being included into the mod. Cheers for the background info, and DaedraWarrior the models look incredible! Keep up the amazing work :)
I can just imagine all the puns these guys would have after killing someone,
"Looks like you...ran out of time"
"Time got away from him...my sword did not"
"It's the final count down! *slash*"
Thank you I'll see my self out XD
Looks really good actually! Only that red thing on that helmet is a bit unnecessary but its only a detail anyway.
Order of the Giant Hourglass
Will these guys be special units for Kvatch?

Name is spot on.

Yep, just didn't checked. Corrected.
