Great Viking Army Vanilla Style Reskin

描述


This mod overhauls the Great Viking Army unit appearances in a very vanilla-friendly way.

I think CA was going for this idea that once the Vikings had settled down in Britain, they adopted the local customs and dress. While this may be true, Thrones of Britannia has a problem with culture really being irrelevant, especially with the Great Viking Army and Saxons. I really wanted to make the Great Viking Army look closer to their Viking roots, so one of the things I added, was a Raven shield pattern that seamlessly blends in with the vanilla patterns, because for the most part, the Vikings and Saxons use very similar patterns, so this makes them stand out more. I also added some facial tattoos that some soldiers have a chance of having.

The way that the vanilla outfits are set up, there is only 3 possible soldier variations (that means only 3 shield variations too), so I added two more soldier variations to every unit, and approximately 30 possible shield variants per unit, with all soldier variants being able to carry them. The shields are based on the unit's vanilla shields (with a couple more patterns added), in all the faction/ pattern color variations, so it's a better version of the vanilla shield distribution.

@Mr Waffenchad - I definitely reduced it in some cases (such as when 2/3 of a vanilla viking unit had black hair), but the goal I tried to stick to with this reskin project was to just add to the vanilla appearances.

"I am keeping it fairly balanced with appearances, so there will still be dark haired and dark eyed Norse."

There needs to be a modder that is willing to just remove black hair completely from the Anglo-Saxons and Norse. If there were that many black haired Germanics back then, most modern Scandinavian, Continental and British Germanics would have black hair to in this day because black hair is a dominant gene.

@Zool
You're completely wrong. Black hair is not a European gene. Brown and Blonde hair is native to Europe and Northern Europe is purer then Southern Europe, even more back then than they are now.

I have an urgent question about modding, could you please give me some resources on how to mod TOB? Thank you so much, really appreciate.

as a general concept however; you'd be looking for only so many of such units,skirmishers,light infantry spear,swords,axes; fair skill,fair toughness,so up those stats abit more than levies ofc,more dark and red tones for hair,mixed appearance attire,Irish and Norse shields,etc,and should suffice well I would think.

Unfortunately I've no idea personally from my own studies over the years how any Norse-Irish/Irish-Norse would have identified themselves differently at the time via attire or sigil, and insofar as gear can only tell you that they used both; that being so in armorings and weapons,using what they had at hand gotten,given or gained from either people.

I think we may be certain that (1) they would have Certainly had the fire and courage of both peoples combined--lol those I know in my own family and others I have met,those I've known of historically certainly have,;) and so at that time no doubt would have had the great desire--and given the chance and arms with which to do so ofc, to prove themselves. (2) While they would have fought,again no doubt,and I believe with great fervor,for whom gave them the chance to do so,I also believe they would been as likely to identify themselves as who they themselves knew they were too. Points to consider in such I think.

For a time accepted for the most part by neither people,while the unfortunate more or less 'natural result' of their meeting or perhaps one might say,'residual' at the time in a sense (many of us may be termed to be 'Celtic/Gaelic-Norse' or the reverse ofc even today,) they lived a life of poverty generally usually on the outskirts of Dublin,the main settlements of the Danes, or out beyond in the countryside as bandits. The Irish ofc saw them as a problem and nuisance, the Danes as often as little more, Brian however in his wisdom saw them as a potential strength: and proved to be quite correct ultimately.
Even as he sought to and employed them into his forces we might take a look at how such might be seen and viewed/considered.

I have noted personally that CA either did not note,did not not attempt to,had not made preparations/or perhaps but 'scant' reference to,or simply set the 'time' of ToB before such as I would now mention,though to Brian Boru and many of his allies among them his famed Norwegian norse supporter (lol ;) most know little enough about that or said person,though his history and that of his sons factor greatly later into that of the isles between Ireland and Scotland,and in following generations is interwoven in Scotland's more still even as it links highly to Norway,and had all along,) said subject being the 'Norse-Irish'/'Irish-Norse'.

Some good points made gentlemen. Spectral noted ably about Guthrum's East Anglian's in a way that's actually covered rather well in Last Kingdom about his personality,actually in 2 ways really--yes,he could be rather deviously ruthless and yet too was curious about the culture he'd met and their religion,wished to learn more about each; and he sensed too that his success in the region's key relied on understanding them. Ultimately ofc he 'succumbed' to the latter allying himself with Aelfred and Wessex we know.
The points regarding Northumbria or if one prefers true 'Danelaw' region,well stated also; a very turbulent area indeed at the time certainly and one where we'd see as we do ofc in game Norse,Saxon and Gaelic influences--though we should see perhaps just bit more of a percentage of or perhaps 'technically', abit more 'trace' of 'yet' as in the north of that territory many of the people there were of that people.
