Excellent LP, but what does the message on battle with the line of Roman legionaries mean?

Which one do you mean? 

Don't be afraid, viewers! All suggestions that don't break "the rules" will most likely be added. A very good list of possible mods can be found here as well as other places.

I haven't played Morrowind since 2006, but i have some fond memories of it, and i shall share these pictures, for you to know what can you expect from the LP.

Edit : Aye, Better Bodies and Better Heads are two must haves. Keep em coming. List even the obvious ones, because i may have forgotten about one or two.
Edit 2 : Yes, that language was indeed Polish.

Surprised to see me? I told you that we're going to tackle Morrowind after we're done with Spain, and we ARE done with Spain.

I have just now dusted my Morrowind, Tribunal and Bloodmoon CD's, and are about to install them, once again.

Now, the Let's Play will be modded, and you - unwashed viewer - have the option to toss in your own suggestions for used modifications. I'm an old Morrowind moder myself, and will use a few of my own babies, but your picks will also be included!

A few limitations :

- No stronghold mods, i already have one picked and will only use that one. Edit : I mean faction-specific stronghold mods. Secondary ones are fine
- No nudity, there are children watching! (besides, the LP will be overly offensive even without explicit sexual content)
- No Alpha mods, the game will be unstable enough without unfinished content
- No Manga / Cartoonish themed stuff. This pretty much excludes any Japanese mod,
- No wings
- REALLY, No wings.


Let's hear it out! (and no, i won't tell you which stronghold have i picked, spoilers are a no-go!)

If any texture suggestions will appear, please try picking dark themes. It will not be a "Let's solve quests and help people!" let's play.

I reserve the right to not include suggestions that will conflict with other mods / the theme of the LP.

Regards

Nuthulu's Army needed a revamp, thus..
I'll post video replay later today. Then we move to Morrowind. (Well.. The Durr Hurr warhounds still need to be made.. but meh!)

Oooh! Idea.


Two armies, all peasants.

3 stacks of Peasants can be routed by a single unit of Spartans. YOU do it 

Should you use a closed o formation, and i had urbans. I would surround you and toss javelins from all sides, but not at the hoplites that face me - Instead ones that face AWAY. Your armor does not matter, when a javelin stabs you in your side.
Followed by a massive charge at the weakest point, and your army is gone.

If at any moment you moved - charge and chain rout.
If you ever raised the spears - game over

That's theory of course, as i never faced a closed O phalanx army, but i'm nearly sure that it will work perfectly.

There is a reason for people to use Lolurban stacks. They are the easiest to play online.
(The multiplayer version of campaign Spartans..)

Edit : Nuthulu, you really do not want to see the replay. AI blows as Seleucid. Unless you want to implement some changes, it's a crushing victory and unimpressive fight.

Well then, let me tell you that elephants and chariots are very, very unreliable units, and nearly never will do you any good against players.
We may have to give the Seleucid some monetary advantage, because the attempt i just now finished..

This would have to be pretty high denarii since seleucid mega units are expensive.

x4 silver shield pikemen.
x4 silver shield legionnaires.
x2 armoured elephants
x3 cataphracts.
x3 companion cav.
x2 archers.
x2 scythed chariots.

 Distribute experience/armour and attack as you want.

I assume you want me to play as Spain?

I'm going with Sahara Desert, Night and Terrible weather for some eye candy.
