Loving those weapons and shields for the Reiksguard!
Especially those unique blade-guards looks incredible!

But i wonder if new armour is planned too in the future since i think the current pieces are from the swadian armory mod?

Those armors, ok, they are SICK!!!! Weapons-shields too! Also, its great to see High ranked offiders with proper sets cause many times in games we do not see that, for some weird reason!
One question: Do you have all the required modding tools from company or there is still more to have?

I'm going to be brutally honest but honestly the entire Empire art direction for this mod is awful. The armors are extremely crude looking in-game, and the concept art is often not much better. This is vastly different with the Vampire gear, which is almost identically modeled to artwork and tabletop, while the Empire/Tileans look nothing like either TT, artwork, or even real life armors, they're just obscenely crude with armors that wouldn't even work, no shaping whatsoever, and look worse than armors from Mount and Blade Warband mods. And it just being 'fantasy' isn't a justification for poor design, Warhammer has always paid close heed to historical styles for the armor of the humans, and especially with the quality of the Vampire Counts, the dichotomy in execution is jarring.

we are still in a very very very early stage so a lot of things will be reworked for example most of the High Tier Units in the Empire have at the Moment Placeholder Gear, also when the Style don't fit a concept from GW or the Table Top figures then it doesn't matter and also don't interest us because we go after lore descriptions and what our Loremaster provide as reference and the 2D Teams does as concepts out of it, so maybe it will not fit always the Stuff that is already out there but it will still be fitting the lore, ^^ for the Historical Accuracy of Armor, yes GW has take a lot of examples on our History but not all Lore descriptions are as the figures or other concepts are, and in a World where other Races are in there things can change fast, also our Team consist out of some people that have a lot of experience and also people that don't have that, and not everyone knows how to built a Armor or can work with the proportions so it can happen that there will be Stuff that looks a bit off, but this is also not a Triple A Game we are making a Mod and doing it in our Free Time for free so some will maybe also not put out the quality that they maybe would do payed and some also are still learning and will do it better in the future ^^

I have two very important questions.
1.Will the Necrarch ***** be circumcised?
2.Will they haves physics applied to them?
