Working on some Roman Cataphracts, based on 2nd or early 3rd century examples.

Right now they use Seleucid cataphract armor, but what they really need is a whole new horse armor set, like this mount here (full set):

(rider's helmet would be a bonus)

 

And/or this half-set here:

There isn't currently a set of horse armor in the game that looks like this that covers the neck as well as the chest. Also, the awesome chamfron for the horse's face would be a separate piece. Currently, the only chamfron in the game is the Seleucid cavalry chamfron ith a transverse crest which is clearly not Roman.

Buenos días o tardes;

-¿Usted podría subir el modelo blend de esta unidad?Por favor.

This helmet is patterned after a cavalry find from Xanten, ancient Colonia Ulpia Traiana, a significant Roman military base and later colonia on the Rhine frontier in modern Germany. Xanten’s archaeological record spans centuries of Roman military presence, making it one of the richest sources of Roman equipment finds along the entire Rhine frontier. As cavalry equipment, it reflects the specialised gear developed for mounted troops, distinct in construction and decoration from standard legionary infantry helmets.
