I guess I'm Hanger-On #2 then. I don't think I have the time to fully contribute, but I will surely have a lot of input.
This is great...I've been pushing this mod forever.

I haven't been able to properly extract the textures (seems like a Vista issue) so could anybody send relevant ones to me? Thanks.

Hey!
I'm not good at modding or anything like that but i have some good ideas (and questions)...
1)Custodians????Is that like high preists??
2) There was 1 tribe of the hebrews that was called Judah. They were supposed to be excellent warriors---maybe model them on the greeks spartans?
3) The Levites were the musicians of the Hebrews...A structure called the Levite hall or something could be an entertainment building.
4)A horse-based period (or the whole thing) would be good for the Hebrews because it was written that Solomon had 40 000 stable (dunno how many horses per stable).
Ps: First Post!

Welcome to TWH, GeneralAwesome. Enjoy your stay.
Since SrJames is absent, I'll answer your questions.
1) Custodians are a Hebrew temple guard. There are several different names used in the Bible. Custodians seemed to be the best one. They might be viewed as ahistorical, but as SrJames said, they would only otherwise be called 'Better Spearmen' or something equally naff.
2) Judah may or may not have been better fighters, but the overall quality of Israelite soldiery was not great, so that is I believe how they are being done. The idea is to have a few elite troops, and morale boosting units (Hornblowers and Ark of the Covenant).
3) Not up to me.
4) Nor this. Though there is little mention of horses being used in warfare by the Hebrews. Also, this mod reflects the Judges period, not the Kings.

Alright, thanks for answering.
Oh and why i said what i did about judah, is (this is in kings tho) because it said that david (or solomon cant rmbr) took 200 000 foot soldiers and 10 000 men of judah.
