=[Future Task]= Spears references
Lion.Kanzen replied to Lion.Kanzen's topic in Tutorials, references and art help
https://www.larp.com/hoplite/greekweapons.html My "alpha" spearhead is 11" long overall, and was hand-forged long ago by a fellow named Brock. The 4 little circles are his maker's mark, but some toy company copied them onto their Greek hoplite action figure's spear! My "beta" spearhead is ground down from an old Museum Replicas "Large Spearhead", originally a triangular 19-inch monster. I lopped 3" off the socket and 4" off the blade, so now it's under a foot long and looking quite nice. I thinned the blade some, and reduced the ugly weld lump where the blade met the socket My first buttspike is a "first generation" from Manning Imperial, which I found to be heavier than I wanted (though very nicely cast!). After some grinding, it weighs about 1-1/2 pounds, a good weight, and is c. 13" long. Manning now does some VERY nice sauroters, http://www.manningimperial.com/item.php?item_id=619&g_id=1&c_id=14 Also found at Olympia were a number of tubular sauroters, mostly bronze but at least one made of iron. The smaller one was very easy to grind out of a modern chrome-plated brass flagpole buttspike! But it's not heavy enough to serve as a counterweight. The larger one started as a door handle, 1" diameter solid bronze (an unused one shown at right). Grinding the outside to shape was no problem, but lacking a 3/4" drill bit suitable for metal I had to try boring the socket out with a series of smaller bits, breaking a half-dozen in the process and dulling several more. (So that other door handle can darn well stay a door handle for now!) But now it's a nice 1-pound sauroter. This sauroter I built from some sort of bronze socket thingy mated to a ground-down piece of round-section door handle. It's also based on an example from Olympia, though again most have longer sockets than this one. This one I use on the upper section of my Macedonian sarissa to convert it to a handy 8-foot spear when needed. So the socket inner diameter is 1-1/8" and the pin is removable. -

Lion.Kanzen replied to Juli51's topic in Applications and Contributions
Roman, Seleucid are missing... not all. icon archery range is the only missing. cavalry exist with Persians and Siege workshop for Macedonian. @LordGood at last I didn't notice of them. last time I was playing vanilla and Delenda Est , some are missing. -

I like your feedback, its very complete and isn't average noobie user. 1-yes but isn't implemented. 2-very controversial, I give some related topic. 3- suggested before but not discussed deeply. 4- suggested before but is heavily micromanagement, so can be nice for specific cases. 5-already in game using hotkey right click ctrl. 6- nope, the team change this.
