Variation Pack Reborn

描述
Cool title, eh?

Compilation pack of all my ToB variation mods so far. NOW INCLUDES THE IRISH.

Increased shield, helmet, armour, face and hair variety across every faction.
Secondary focus after variation is realism, or at least, being historical faithful - expect to see loads more padded armour and much less mail and leather.
With respect to Tier 3 units, particularly the English ones, I have nuked the availability of mailed armour. During the Battle of Hastings, the English front rank was comprised of the Housecarls, with the Fyrd behind them. As the battle wore on and the Housecarls suffered losses, the Fyrd was used to fill the gaps and bolster the line. Now, why would Harold place the Housecarls on the front lines to begin with? My thought is that not only were they the best troops he had, but also the best EQUIPPED. Stands to reason the equipment of the Fyrd was, taken as an average, far inferior to that of the household troops. I've sought to reflect this supposition.

A few units haven't been given the treatment, but I'm slowly getting round to it.

Point to note; if you want to be really faithful to history, set your unit size to "medium". Modern estimates place the infamous Great Heathen Army between 800 to 2,000 men and Alfred's Burghal Hides detail a standing force of 5,500 levied soldiers for the whole of England - anything above "medium" and very quickly, the combined total of yours and the AI's troops far exceeds the recruitment capability of the entire island at that time.

If you like this mod and want to make a donation, save your money because I'm not a f*cking beggar and mods should always be free.

Wæs þu hæl!

If I remember correctly, this version only improves the variation in models so that not everyone looks the same, while v2 is the more realistic version of this mod, because in addition to improving variety it also makes it so that all the units don't use a uniform colour scheme. IE, if you play as Circenn, not everyone will be wearing blue.

So you'll want to use one mod or the other, not both. It's down to personal preference whether you want a more readable battlefield, or realistic one.

I'm interested in featuring some kind of mesh/variation mod in the new TOB overhaul. Is this work available to credit?

I know you're probably not working on the mod anymore, but I just wanted to report that Sudreyar's Great Axes unit misses bodies and they're just flying bald heads and hands :D

Cleiton instalaçoes elétricas, Agreed, even the ancient British tribes could field tens of thousands of men against the Romans in a simple rebellion after they were already conquered, yet independent organised Saxon kingdoms couldn't field an army of thousands? Two thousand men wasn't enough to bring the well established Saxons to their knees.

in fact, the estimate of the great heathen army being small was used by minimalist historians and was completely destroyed after an archaeological expedition by Julian D Richards and Dawn Hadley on one of the Nordic army's winter camps that was an average of 55 hectares in length therefore, not hundreds, but thousands of Nordics arrived in England. The army may have had between 4,000 to 8,000, as each drakkar could carry an average of 32 warriors, and as soon as they reached the coast, 250 ships were described, assuming 8,000 men.
The force that over-wintered at Torksey in 872–73 numbered in the thousands, 
not hundreds, and was larger than the population of most Anglo-Saxon towns.

some of the hemlets for the saxons have a funny nose bend. I think it's a full on Iron Coppergate helmet

800 to 2K men for the GHA is a very small number that really underestimates the size of forces. Figures like that were vogue from around the very late 19th century through the 1970s, but are contradicted by the evidence, especially the archaeological finds of the past 50 years. See the most recent excavations of the GHA camps.
