I'm working on a large castle mod and would like to add defenses along the battlements. I'm looking for meshes of ballistas, trebuchets, cannons, or anything else that would be used to defend/fortify a castle or city wall. Does anyone know where I can find that sort of thing?

unfortunately I cannot provide much help, but I can recommend going to the Nxus and under the dropdown box for searching select "Modder's Resources" and just search without filling in the text field. There are tons of pages of stuff so it could take awhile to find specifically what you want, but you might come across something useful.

Sharpening weapons...castle defense...what big secret are you hiding?

Thanks StarX - that was exactly what I was looking for!


LOL - nothing too elaborate, just a little house mod. :whistling:

sharpening weapons sounds pretty elaborate for a house mod
Well, I think your little sneakiness has gotten me rather interested in your mod...

Well, I guess it won't hurt to tell a little bit more...

Basically, it's a castle home a little bigger than Battlehorn situated above a Nord town up in the Jerall Mountains. Unlike a lot of the house mods, though, you have to earn it with a number of quests and an insane amount of money. Your efforts will purchase lordship of the castle and mayorship of the town. It will have weekly quests kind of like the Arena, including some where you have to assist the guards repel attacks. At the rate I'm going, though, it may be some time before a release.

Give this one a look as well for some defenses for the castle and/or village. Meo does good work as well.

I think I can sit patiently and wait :whistling:
thanks for the bit of info, it does sound good and I will look forward to a [rel] thread...in the mean time, I will stop making this topic float to the top as it has been resolved, and aside from that, I am going off topic.

Yep - Meo is awesome, so I'm using some of these as well in the village. In fact, I'm using about half of the resources Meo's released so far lol. Thanks for the link, though!

Out of curiosity, besides the midas catapult, are there any other working and playable models of seige engines?

(sorry about hijacking the thread :ph34r: 0)

I haven't found any yet. I was going to try and set up the ballista like a giant bow but ran into problems with the way the game engine handles weapons. I finally gave up on making it functional, but just its being there adds a lot of atmosphere to the battlements.
