Sons of Calgacos: Celtic Reskin
In 83 AD, the might of Rome’s military apparatus faced of against the unified forces of a Celtic confederation in Mons Graupius, north-eastern Scotland. It was a last ditch effort for the native Britons to thwart the advance of the Roman state and preserve their way of life. The Celts were according to Tacitus led by a man named Calgacos, meaning "possessing a blade" in Celtic. Despite amassing a force that was much larger than the Romans, Calgacos and his men were decisively defeated by general Gnaeus Julius Agricola and his mighty legionaries and auxiliaries. The victory in Mons Graupius led Agricola to proclaim that all tribes of Britain had finally been subdued and Roman control was established in Northern Britain. However, due to other pressing needs in the Imperial realm, the Roman army pulled out as quickly as it had arrived and the opportunity of complete Roman domination over Britain was lost. The failure of Romans to "civilize" the northern Britons would come back to bite them in the later in as the Picts and Scots would launch raids and attacks into Romano-Britain when the Empire’s control declined.
This mod is a complete reskin overhaul of the factions that are the successors to Calgacos.This mod reskins all land and naval units of the Picts, Caledonians, and the Ebdani. With this mod you get a lot of variation in clothing, armour, shields and equipments. A lot of effort has been put in to making it as realistic as possible for a Celtic dark age tribe.
The following things are reskinned:
– All land units
– All naval units
– All officers
– All standardbearers
– All faction leaders
I have reskined all the Celtish faction leaders, however, I have not reskined the generals. I intend to do so in a later mod where I adress all of the Germanic/barbarian tribes.
To use this mod you need my other mod "Valsgarde’s chosen". It has been listed in the requirements. Load order of the mods is Valsgarde first, then this mod.
The shields are NOT MINE. I have had the opportunity to borrow these fantastic shield designs from Nik000’s mod More immersive armies & shields, and dontfearme22’s, Colorful shields mod. All of them are in the ToB workshop, so do go there and check their mods out because they are fantastic. Big thanks to them because I could never have made so beautiful shields myself. I have also borrowed some shield designs from Weeags custom shield resource.
