Finally the main consept of the Arabic common units is done: image - The Great Conflicts 872-1071 (TGC) mod for Medieval II: Total War: Kingdoms
Great Conflict between the Roman Empire, The Bulgar Empire and The Frankish Empire. Local conflicts between factions in Italy, Balkans and North Africa. Invasion of peoples from the east.
The body model will have 4 bodies, 4 helmets, 9 turbans (with 2 tones of each faction dominated color) , 2 legs 5 -6 heads .
I have chosen this phase because i used Razor's head model and Sumskliz's face texture that had to fully been adjust to the model.
On this consept (like we did with our scutatoi) will be based the following units:
Spearmen
Crossbowmen
Heavy Archers (only for 2 factions)
Chandax Abid AL shira that will be differnt from the rest of the other similar units of the rest factions.
Swordmen (only for Abbasids).
The consept is only with simple colors to work as basis for the unit's normal map common texture. In each faction paterned tunics with each faction dominated color will exist.
Tunics. Turbans, sashes and shield dominated colors will allow the player to distinquish which units is his!
