Uniforms and Heraldry of the Southern Realms (TEB)
Hi followers and fans!!
Myrmidia be praised!
Finally the Uniforms and Heraldry of the Southern Realms is here!
This is a graphical mod that changes appearence, in a more lore-friendly way, for some units for all Southern Realms factions:
– Tilea
– Estalia
– Border Princes
– New World Colonies
– Respective rebels factions
The results are:
– New differents units appearence variations: Tilea, Estalia and Border Princes (and respective rebel factions) will show different appearence (only few units remain vanilla for artistic choice).
– New shields decals: Tilea, Estalia, Border Princes and New World Colonies have their own shields (actually each rebel faction use the same shields pattern of "non-rebel" faction and probably I will add specific shields for rebel in the future).
– Reworked faction colours: different and less flat faction colours.
– New faction emblems and campaign/battle banner: New faction icons for Tilea, Tilea Rebels, Estalia and Border Princes. Reworked campaign army banner and battle map units main banner.
– New variations for TEB generals and captain: Both in campaign and battle map. NOTE: teb generals porthole in loading screens and campaign battle layout could not represent the model (this is an issue that I could solve if I were able to edit portholes.bin files).
– Added quivers for crossbowmen: Integrated a compatible version of Merwanor’s "Quivers for Empire" mod (big thanks to Merwanor).
Southern Realms are the Warhammer rappresentation of the Italy, Spain and old Balcan states (this last one is less clear, but geographically it could be) . To create new and different variants from empire original ones I made a deep historical research about 15th century italian and spanish army. I added a little bit of Warhammer fantasy fan’s spirit and the final result is this mod:
– Tilean soldiers looks like italian 15th century army, they use alot of hats. Their shields show gallons motif with almost three colour: red, green and white (these colours fit well with tilean army as we can see in tilean Dogs of War official models).
– Estalian soldiers looks like spanish 15th century arm, they use hats and morions (morions in the 15th century was largely used around the europe but I choose to make this helmet as they usualy resemble the spanish tercio). Their shields show different colour pattern as yellow and dark red or red and white and some reference to Myrmidia.
– Border Princes army are formed by empire, tilean and bretonnian people escaped from their original lands. So army represent both the culture with some distinctive bretonnian, empire helmets and hats.
Unfortunately TEB factions are not playable and this mod was created to give more diversity to TEB faction when encountered in the campaign and battle map playing other playable factions.
This mod is not developed to work with other TEB overhaul mods as Cataph Southern Realms mod. Since my mod edit vanilla units it cannot works with Cataph mod that adds new units.
Hats Off to modders!
I want to thanks Cataph and Marthenil, their morions helmet assets and minor textures parts were crucial for this mod. And I want to thanks HN and Mustélidé Patibulaire too for their banners icons and some banner that I used as a reference model for my variants.
