1) Ooops, I didn't count with it. I'm from Czech Republic.

2) I appreciate your willingness to help. But if you can't do it from stated resons, than I don't know how could you help.

Perhaps history research could fit you well. Simply choose some nation and find some info about its history and especially military in these times.

I'm not sure if Tathar mentioned time period in his mod, but if it will be sequel to my mod I guess, that it will start at the end of 15th century and end in 18th century or so.

If you need any help with :

Poland, Russia, Iroquis, Aztecs, Inca, Mapuche (if these are here) or generally ANYTHING from the XVIth and XVIIth century I have enough knowledge to assist this mod with necessary information.

I am largerly responsible for Pike and Musket mod for TW series and I have most of reseacrch already done.

BTW Poland was indirectly a colonial power for a couple of years - its vasal state Courland had Tobago untill it was taken by the Dutch in 1660s.

Those names aren't definite, just descriptions of the soldier.

I disagree that the chief should be a rifleman. Iroquois chiefs had capes over their right shoulders, like the one in the picture I posted. The sprite you posted just looks like a regular Great Lakes soldier to me, not even necessarily Iroquois.

The Inca also did not have horizontal feather headdresses like the ones pictured in those sprites, they actually had front-to back ones or none at all, if I remember right.

Well,the problem is that the rifleman looks like too much with the tomahawk.The sprite is from american conquest,i dont think its good enough to be the iroquois chief,it was only a sugestion.

About the inca sprites,we dont need to use this for the chief,but the priest is very good,dont you think?

But now,more pictures:

;) Really good work !

I am still researching about some armies and nations and some of those images are incredibly useful. :P

Anyway - just curious - how many units per faction is the limit ?

BTW Anyone here knows at least a little Iroquis language or at least terms they used to decribe warriors, scouts etc. I will not bother you with details unless someone can help me.

Anyone has any images/more data about Mapuche ( south part of South America -i.e. Chile, Argentina) armies after 1555 - they adopted european tactics (pikemen, cavalry, musketeers) and actually were subdued only after 1850 if I am correct or even later.

Finally are there any online source about Hawaii warfare I really am curious about them now. :D

I would suggest "Mabobo Clubman" over "Ironwood Clubman", since the mabobo(sp?) is the name of the club that the South American tribes wielded. Don't know why Ensemble gave them the other name.

I didn't know much about Tupi armies, but they look really cool. ;)

Other American Indian civ ideas not yet covered:

- Apache

- Crow

- Cherokee

- Klamath

- Cree

- Aymara

- Taino

- Huron

- Algonquin

- Pawnee

In my opinion it should be balanced between the two continents. I think one or two Mesoamerican (technically north American) civs is okay, Maya and Aztec one would assume.

Desired North American civs:

- Iroquois

- Cherokee

- Crow

- Sioux

- Apache

South American civs:

- Inca

- Mapuche

- Taino

- Tupi

- Aymara

I know that is 12 civs all and all. That's the problem, narrowing them down...
