This mod makes your greek human units look better than default and at the same time try to keep the game running smoot
blood effect added on death anims (to greeks only)

DOWNLOAD IT NOW!!!!

*hoplite shields (only bronze and iron)include many variations cuz every hoplite had his own personal shield desing also there are 3 helmet variations

These were only edited by changing brightest+contrast and some blur (siege weps shown are normal/iron not old/new)

*myrmidons also have variations like use shield on hand or carry it on back in this case they use dual swords, shield desings also have many variants

*Hypaspists share shield variations with hoplites

*some units have same or simillar textures...
leather armors for standard/copper cav and inf
simple cloth for standard/copper archers and leather for heavy/champion

*some textures are hand painted

*new weapons as you can see

a new move? what kind of move? a new attack move? tell me if that move is some kind of javelin trow or something like that...im working on peltasts and they look ugly they would be better with a base model like the one of the myrmidon
btw you can make and spear trow animation for the myrmidon?? jajaja

btw i never realized i could resize weapons textures to make them look better jajajaaja they look better now specialy the curved one

add me on msn
that making of new moves is quite hard.
And there is a big problem:
I can't move the attachpoints
thus it's nessesary to made figure and the wapons in one model.

a new trowing move is not possible

oh there is only one way, but thats very hard:
using the peltast model and replace the mesh with the myrmidon animation. but the myrmidon has to move exactly the same way as the peltast.

Well this end up being something very good, and the idea of replace the existing units is also great, this mod will be on my AoM, congrats!

PS. the only thing that i dont like, is that weird blue ponytail in the Toxotes head.

btw would u add me? then we can work together on this mod.

check this:

peltasts are the light infantry, with small swords and small moon shaped shields(pelta) and javelins

Hoplites are the heavy infantry of the greek army
and hypaspists are actualy a type of hoplites

myrmidons are elite fighters and not used for massive battles. orginaly they are the troops of achilles

Strategos are the leaders of the armys

ye what i read about hypaspist is that they used to fight in the right side of the phalanx where it was weaker cuz hoplites wear shields on the left hand....hypaspists (wich mean shield bearer or something that way) used shorter spears cus they needed to turn to their right side to protect the flank but smart ES ppl show them as swordmans btw all hoplites used the sword but only when their main weapon the spear was totaly destroyed they even used the bronze counterweight of the spear after loosing the iron head before taking out the sword

ye i looked for pics of peltasts...well help me with that unit (i tried that thing on the guide and the cape shows up but all black) my mail: black_dragon3188@hotmail.com

I like it especially the shields! Its pretty good. The only suggestion I have is make the white go away on the helmets. It just looks better a solid color. Keep up the good work!

I think I gonna make the peltast so, that he trow their small spears if they are from a distance and sting if the are close to the enemey.
and I make a new head for the peltast.

I think we just have to set the prodomos in the army.
only that hat has to got away

who very good
only that hippikon is looking that it's not of the greek time.
but if you say it would be right.
I see I have to edit the hippikon head, it's no good looking that long streched faces.

tip for the hetairois:
remove the cape! else the look to much on your cataphracts

don't forgot this shield picture:
http://img510.imageshack.us/img510/1439/athenianhopliteub3.jpg
it's a very traditonal athenian shield painting!!

I'm now busy making a peltast head like this:

!!Remember: not all greek units had crests on their helmets!!

thats a 19 century british dragoon jajajajajaaj
for the crested helm thing ye those were infantry helmets i guess cavalry used other type of helm but i dont have to much reference of greek cavalry i thing only officials used crested/winged helms all references i find are of macedon cavalry and macedon and greek had diferent looking armors
for the hetairoi i found a reference that says that macedonias did use leopard/lion skins on their horses
but well that hetairoi is gonna change cuz right now is just the same cataphract i did before

^^its because there 80% less mods being made now than only a year or two ago so the only people who take the time to submit them are the ones who know they are good mods.

Check out all of the mods I made here

Did I manage to impress anyone here?

Those are absolutely amazing textures. Especially the faces. Normally the face textures are what ruins it for me personally, but you really captured it.

Would you like some ubersauce with that pwnage?

I'm ready with the new crest mod

then he do not looks so much on the hoplite.

You sir, are a genius. The peltast and hypaspist look amazing.
Now do norse, egyptian, atlantean, nature, embellishment obejcts, and terrain and we would have a full texture conversion.
