Hi there.
Yeah, that’s deep.
While we let that sink in, I present to you this add-on to a couple of our mods. And that’s an important thing:
Links right there.
What are we adding? A relevant infantry reform, with Pergamon abandoning the obsolete pikemen and the mixed gallograecian infantry and replacing them with a heavier sword unit. This Pergamenian Infantry is lighter than the usual Thorax swords but is guaranteed to get **** done against sub-regular infantry. Once the reform hits (with Mercenaries tech) they will also make a heavy presence in the pergamenian garrisons (up to 5 units), similarly to how the Romans can field large amounts of sword units in their own.
We are also bringing in a mounted unit, the Attalid Light Cavalry, supposed to make up a smart and reliable cavalry bridging between citizen cav and Thessalians. It’s not involved in any reform and will require the third level heavy barracks.
As a side note, the Thessalians had a minor reskin and now can sport a chainmail in alternative to the linothoraxes, in imitation to the vanilla Noble Cavalry.
Overview: we like to think that this mod (especially with the infantry reform) will make the pergamenian army hopefully particular, in the way that there’s the light garrisons on one side (sort of late roman Limes guard) with thorakitai, light swordsmen and light cavalry, and the good but nimble royal guard (with the mounted nobles, the agema spears and our royal swordsmen) for the serious engagements.
One of the reasons why this is an add-on and not a patch to our mods is that someone might still want to use those pikes. Another one is that we are intrinsically evil.
Please note that the screenshots were taken with other mods enabled (I’m that lazy), both ours and from other guys, like Sebidee’s linothoraxes, Mackles’ hoplons and Thunderbolt II’s Notitia Dignitatum. Their features might or might not be spotted in the screens but I’m reporting this anyway because fair’s fair.
Do enjoy.
