Jokson's Janissary Mods

Postby Jokson » Thu Apr 19, 2012 12:57 am

All these CoD-clone mods leave you dry?
Tired of seeing tactical this and Spec Ops that and a thousand different takes on an MP5 and an M16?
Bored from all the drab gray and the optical scopes?
Looking for something new?

Ever wanted to be this guy?

I've got just the mods for you, my friend. Come closer, and see!


JANISSARY
Preview Link
Download
Neither free men nor slaves, the Janissaries were the Ottoman empire's elite warriors. Taken from their families at the age of 10 or 12, these Janissaries-in-training would learn nothing but warfare and be subject to harsh discipline every moment of the rest of their lives. They were forbidden from marrying or learning any skill that did not directly relate to warfare. With an incredible war record, the Janissaries were the single most feared military unit of their time. And now you can be one, too!


JEZAIL
Preview Link
Download
From the mountain steppes of Afghanistan comes the JEZAIL, a long, curved rifle that once decimated the British Army and caused thousands of casualties when combined with the Afghani's hit and run tactics and camel-riding prowess.

HUOT
Preview Link
Download
In 1916 the Canadian Expeditionary Force was short on light machine guns, so they did what any enterprising army would do and made some out of the other rifles they had lying around. The result: the Huot. Why are the elite Janissaries using these obscure Canadian rifles? Are they visionaries? Are they time travellers? It's a mystery for the ages.
(Iron sights in progress, although the default SMG looks just fine)

BLUNDERBUSS
Preview Link
Download
Dutch for "thunder pipe", the blunderbuss is one of the first extant shotgun styled weapons. Its short stock and incredibly loud report makes it a weapon rarely used by the subtle marksman, but it remains a popular weapon for close-quarters warfare.
(Includes iron sights, casing, and tracer files!)

SHOVEL
Preview Link
Download Link
Well, it's a shovel. Despite being the elite military unit of their country, Janissaries are still expected to be capable of digging and fortifying positions when necessary. In a pinch, it can also be used to strike an enemy, although that is not its primary function.

SCIMITAR
Preview Link
Download Link
One of the finest hand-to-hand weapons ever created, the scimitar was originally adopted to be used by cavalry, who needed a weapon that could be used while bearing down on enemies. The curved blade ensured that it would not become stuck and lost and that each slash was given as much leeway as possible. In ground combat it is lethal as well, lending itself to a fluid fighting style that came to characterize the entire Middle Eastern region.

I used to play as the Turkish in Age of Empires 2 so I could spam the enemy with Janissaries.

Nice job.
To a Physicist, white and black is the presence and absence of color.
To a Fine Artist, white and black are just shades and tints of color.
To a Painter, any paint that you could get into a can is a color.
THIS color, on the other hand, is #b4d455.

I added a recolored shovel (slightly different, a little more antique-seeming), and a scimitar. The scimitar is a lot of fun, it really ties the whole thing together. I'm not sure if I'm completely satisfied with it, but I think it'll do for now.

I'm considering re-doing the iron sights for the Jezail, but I think I'm going to wait on it a little bit longer.

You see those warriors in Hammerfell? They've got curved swords. CURVED SWORDS.

wow, those are awesome. great job dude, one thing I would say is the curve on the jezail is way too circular, in the image it is not curved as much. great job though, it also reminds me of AoE II and some other stuff

Something different in this gosh-darned modding section for once.
I'm just kidding, good job on the originality though. Gotta give you props. No one I've seen has done this yet.
