Visigoth army There were two types of cabalry, the ligth one, equiped with javelin, lance, spatha, sax, scramasax and a bow. The heavy one would use almost the same equipment as that used during the roman period in the style of cataphracts and their main weapon was the kontos, a long spear. Both would use harnesses and iron lorica.

Founded by the Visigoth tribe, it settled in present day France and the Iberian Peninsula. With its capital in the gallic city of Toulouse, it began in 418 A.D. after the pact or fodeus between the Visigoths and Rome and lsted until 507 A.D. Palace of Toulouse, capital of the Visigoth Kigdom.

Only ruins, Visigothic catrum Puig Rom

To design the buildings, i am going to use as reference the first city founded by the Visigoths, Recopolis.

Hello, i want to join you, i want to design the Visigoth Kingdom faction.

A bit of both, mostly improvising due to lack of references on pinterest

Here is another attempt at a civic center, it is better but it looks like a big house with the car parked in the yard. At least it look decent, you can use the other design for houses.

First attempt at a civic center for the goths, i will design others models just in case.

We can use this as a reference for carts I will also use this for houses and other buildings Like all other Germanic farmers and stockbreeders the Goths lived scattered over the countryside in small villages - which made them vulnerable to the Hun's attack.

Ok, i´m going to start with the civic center. Any reference can you provide me?

Greetings, i wanted to know if the Goth faction will be nomadic or sedentary. I want to start designing buildings.

It´s a shame that there are no archaeological finds of these helmets and armor.

§ Mar.25.7 and their horsemen, fifteen thousand strong, rode out in splendid style, with helmets made to resemble the maws of frightful wild beasts or the heads of strange animals, which, with their towering crests of feathers, made their wearers appear taller than they really were; they were also equipped with breastplates of iron, and carried gleaming white shields. For hurling, each man had two lances; and at close quarters they used large, heavy swords. Interesting description.

Excuse me, could someone (@Genava55 @Ultimate Aurelian) recommend a historian who has described in detail how the Cimbians were armed (helmet, shields,etc) in the Cimbrian War? maybe Plutarch or someone else.

Estoy de acuerdo con eso, deberíamos poder agregar las tres facciones en el siguiente ALPHA, a la comunidad le encantaría ver tres facciones nuevas y quizás aumentaría la cantidad de gente que lo juega.

Hello everyone, i vote for germanic tribes (Suebi, Cimbri) the development is almost finished and i would like to see this faction in the base game
