Teutonic Order - Models

Post by Veles »

Salve fratres!

Recently I was going through some of the screenshots of FoGII Medieval and I've noticed something that caught my attention. Namely, the models of "Teutonic Order Knights" (a weird name BTW, wouldn't Teutonic Knights make moire sense?) have some weird details. It seems like Order Knights have horns on their helmets. Now, I'm not entirely sure if they have them because it is rather hard to distinguish all the details on this screenshot.

So I have questions for the devs: Do they really have horned helmets? And if so why do you guys decided on using this modern ahistorical trope instead of following a more historically accurate path?

Thanks in advance

P.S. I couldn't find the screenshot I was talking about but there is a video from thehistoricalgamer channel that shows it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0B4HbouToek&t=497s

And some art showing the modern trope of winged/horned helmets for reference:

No, they don't have horned helmets in the game.

It must have been a weird angle of the screenshot that played tricks with my eyes.

Just found that video about 13th Century Teutonic knight armor, I think it is interesting:
