how i could send it to you? discord?
Chavajoth  [author] 29 Jun @ 12:43pm 
@krn̈vr Everything seems fine here, but maybe it has to do with my configs. Would you mind sharing a screenshot?
Chavajoth  [author] 29 Jun @ 12:14pm 
I'll take a look at it today and see if I can fix it. :)

custom holy samurai helmet
Chavajoth  [author] 29 Jun @ 10:01am 
@krn̈vr Which one of them? I can take a quick look.
krn̈vr 28 Jun @ 7:55am 
i have an idea of a gas mask fused with these helmets since is a third empire themed armour
krn̈vr 28 Jun @ 6:44am 
hi the helmets are a bit bugged (the back of the helmet act like clothing)
Chavajoth  [author] 22 Jun @ 11:02am 
@Domba3 They are currently only craftable.
BeudiL 21 Jun @ 8:54pm 
NPC's randomly uses them too?
Mr. Raider 19 Jun @ 4:38am 
I don't expect anything, I'm already glad the mod exists as is.
Chavajoth  [author] 18 Jun @ 3:08pm 
@Mr. Raider Can't promisse it right now, but I'll do that as soon as possible! I think they would look nice. :D
Mr. Raider 18 Jun @ 2:53pm 
Iron hat and armored hood are also worn by the uc samurais often for example. The holy armor and crab armor sets would be very nice too.
Chavajoth  [author] 18 Jun @ 2:41pm 
@Mr. Raider Which ones do you have in mind? I can take a look into it once I have the time. :)
Mr. Raider 18 Jun @ 1:04am 
Hell yeah I was just looking for something like that. Be cool if you made similarly styled retextures for other "high end" armors.
Chavajoth  [author] 10 Jun @ 5:54pm 
@Le pp baguette De wewe you're right on that. It's not like someone can decide who's the true Third Empire in any way. Specially given the fact that, in some way or another, the Second Empire is still up and Cat-Lon still lives.

And yes. Craft only for now. But if you have any sugestions on that, feel free to leave them here. I might not have the time now to make NPCs or something like that, but I can take a look at it soon.
Le pp baguette De wewe 10 Jun @ 5:12pm 
Are these all craft only?
Le pp baguette De wewe 10 Jun @ 5:12pm 
Even if the UC are a real empire in legislation, Nothing says the player cannot be a pretender. Like the Third Rome
Chavajoth  [author] 8 Jun @ 2:46pm 
@Guy Thank you so much, dude!

And I thought about the Holy Roman Empire as I was typing the answer. Lol
But I think of it more as an exception, you know? Also, as a history nerd, you must remember Voltaire's joke: The Holy Roman Empire is neither holy, nor Roman, nor an Empire (which of couse he said but... kinda funny Lol).
Guy 7 Jun @ 6:46pm 
Awesome armor set. Thank you.

(As a history nerd, I have to- The Holy Roman Empire elected emperors. There's nothing saying that there can't be competing Empires though. The Holy Roman Empire and The Byzantine Empire both claimed to be the successors of the Roman Empire irl)
Chavajoth  [author] 31 May @ 8:20am 
@Mitsurugi Only crafted.

@SirMaou6 I'm not sure right now, but I think I made the Midnight sets a little bit more crossbow friendly (less penalties for perception). The Gold variant is a little bit better than the Silver one, also. Try seeing if crafting a Masterwork version helps (if you can do so).
SirZealot 31 May @ 7:47am 
it's hard to find a Samurai archer armor, my melee guys Looks awesome now but my crossbowmen needs a bit of more Gold.
Mitsurugi 31 May @ 5:26am 
Can these sets be purchased, or only crafted?
Marrawder 30 May @ 9:20am 
"Yo bro check mah hood" ahh armor
Chavajoth  [author] 30 May @ 7:48am 
@Goatedguy3000 You could argue that; the United Cities is very expansive and calls themselves an empire. I don't consider them the Third Empire for 2 main reasons, tho: most of the continent is free from their rule while there are two major factions opposing them, being the Holy Nation and the Shek. Also, the emperor is elected from the circle of nobles, which doesn't really sounds as an empire. But since there's no official statement on that, I guess it's up to the player...
WariousGaming 29 May @ 11:24pm 
@Gatedguy3000 no, UC is "The Empire" you can read on game wiki.
Goatedguy3000 29 May @ 11:14pm 
Isn't the UC the 3rd Empire?
月羽狐 29 May @ 2:23am 
Amazing!

:hyperium:Mod Bomb, Made perfectly:quadrinix:
Chavajoth  [author] 28 May @ 5:15pm 
@MortalFolly I might make a Zamorak, Saradomin and Guthix samurai armor next. Lol

@jolobino Feel free to do so! Big update to the weapons soon, btw...
jolobino 28 May @ 4:16pm 
@Chavajoth thank you very much! your mod was what inspired me to revive that mod! with your permission, I hope to use your Chinese weapons later on.
MortalFolly 28 May @ 3:15pm 
Gives me the "Trimming Rune armor" vibes right here lol
Chavajoth  [author] 28 May @ 6:22am 
@jolobino Just saw it. No worries, and I'm glad you liked the mod! :D

@KyMon RP was what originaly led me to make the mod. I feel like it turns Kenshi into a whole new game; I actually can't play it any other way anymore lol. And I'm also really glad you liked it. :D
jolobino 28 May @ 3:42am 
With your permission, I just uploaded a patch with your armors that I loved, for the great mod the nexus empire, I hope it doesn't bother you.
KyMon 27 May @ 12:20pm 
Yoo, these are amazing! Love how you can use the various colours of the same armor across your forces with more elite variants issued towards higher ranking soldiers for example. Endless roleplaying potential. And the fact that they have the same stats as vanilla... chef's kiss.
vudwls802 27 May @ 2:10am 
samurai desgin good
Chavajoth  [author] 26 May @ 12:03pm 
@Hypersticcboi The research should available once you reach Tech Level 3; you'll find it under "Smithing: Third Empire".
Hypersticcboi 26 May @ 11:11am 
Soooo where does one get the research for this? I can't find it anywhere.
Chavajoth  [author] 26 May @ 11:09am 
@55125 Mod is currently abailable only in English. I don't speak mandarin, so if anyone is interested in translating the mod, feel free. :)
55125 26 May @ 10:40am 
CN?
Chavajoth  [author] 25 May @ 10:59pm 
@H2o I'll see if I can make it an option sometime this week. :)
Chavajoth  [author] 25 May @ 10:59pm 
@Imperium3002 Yeah... I was afraid that would be a thing. But, well, you can't just skip from the Second to the Fourth Empire, that wouldn't sound right. That's the reason I'll be avoiding red... Lol
Beeppu 25 May @ 9:01pm 
perfect.
H2o 25 May @ 8:17pm 
Can this outfit be dyed?
Imperium3002 24 May @ 4:04pm 
ah, the third reich samurai.
Chavajoth  [author] 24 May @ 11:50am 
@NonExistantFlower Same forthe "Standard" and "Guilded" ones. Better for the others. Each set has their own research, unlocked at Level 3.
NonExistantFlower 24 May @ 11:40am 
do these have better/worse stat penalties?
Chavajoth  [author] 23 May @ 8:01pm 
@Gevurah I could look into that. To be honest, never really considered it, but I'll see if I can figure that out.
albert 23 May @ 4:45pm 
nice
