Hi guys,
Just a suggestion to do with the civs that got the original castles’ models as their unique castles. Is there any way that the original models for the architecture sets can get some small details identifying the civ to which they are now assigned? For example, civ shields, banners, helmets &/or weapons?
Good idea, some already have some small details (there is a lion above the gate of the british castle) but a bit more would do some good
I would argue the opposite - that all unique castles shouldn’t have civ specific insignia.
For the reason that campaign creators can use them independently of the civ. Georgian or Lithuanian castles come to mind
I agree, there is no need to add more heraldry. If anything, their wonder graphic can have it and a duplicate of it minus the heraldry can be used as the monument graphic in editor.
I want more. I want those civs also have their own castle skins. Then, there could be a option in the settings to choose that have every civ display their own castles or display original castles by their regions.
I agree. That increases their usability outside timeframe and in custom scenarios more.
Another thing is that the Slavs being given the Eastern European architecture set castle is not correct, because it’s a model of the Malbork castle which was the HQ of the Teutonic Order.
It’s the Viscri fortress in Romania though.
Malbork castle doesn’t have these wooden balcony/ceilings
Huh, I think you are right, it kinda looks more like it than Malbork aside from the color and the one round tower, it might be at least inspired by both
For reference, here’s Malbork:
Indeed it only lacks having plaster on the walls. While I don’t see features from Malbork, not even the colour match, it’s more red and bright in Malbork.
