Armenia

Those aren't really historical...

 

[jordarkelf]

Oh no? The Armenian one is still the current COA of the Armenian republic.
Likewise the Crimean one of the Ukrainian autonomous republic of Crimea.
And the Brabant one is still in use by Flemish Brabant.

 

[Birger]

No, and why would that make them historical?

 

[gigau]

Brabant :
>Actual one in 1066 :

>It changed in 1284 :

>Now, if you want the one used now in Vlaams Brabant, here it is :

Armenia :

> Armenia as on the CoA of Jean II Janus de Lusignan (1374-1432), king of Cyprus and Armenia :

> CoA of Armenia as stated by herald Claes Heinen aka "Gelre" around 1370-1395:

> Modern CoA (not sure since when) :

Crimea :

Duchy of Athens :

County of Rügen :

 

[gigau]

I think i forgot duchy of Bretagne

> as in 1066 :

> changed by Jean III the Good (March 8, 1286 – April 30, 1341)

 

[Birger]

Some minor "bugs" there but otherwise pretty good.

Armenia Minor

Brittany

John II of Brittany

Brabant

John I of Brabant

Rügen

Wizlaw I of Rügen

Wizlaw III of Rügen

 

[Birger]

As for Crimea, there was no republic back then... You could use either the Crimean Tatar emblem of the arms of Theodoro.

Theodoro (arms of the Golovin dynasty who emigrated to Russia)

Crimean Tatars

I know that they are not all the correct historical coa for the period. But f.e. Armenia I going to use for my mod, which has the 'fantasy' kingdom of Armenia. And since I already have a lot of coa in the game with a red lion on a yellow background (not the correct heraldic terms I know ), I wanted something different.

Gigau thanks for the work !

 

[Birger]

Why not use any of these arms for Armenia?

All from Brian Timms site.

 

[Veldmaarschalk]

The one on top I use for the duchy of Armenia and for the kingdom of Armenia

The second one I use for the duchy of Armenia Minor

I don't have the third one, so if someone could make a coat of arms out of it (metal texture) I would be very happy




EDIT
I see that Gigau, has already made that one (or at least one that looks very much like it)

 

[Birger]

Or this:

King Leo V of Armenia

 

[Veldmaarschalk]

Looks a lot like this one, which I use for the kingdom of Cyprus in the 1337 scenario

But on Leo's coat of arms, the colours are a bit different.

A question about the middle part of Leo's coat of arms. I have seen that coat of arms once in a documentary about the First Crusade, it was on a flag used by the Byzantines who had conquered Nikaea. Is it based on a flag/coat of arms from the Byzantine empire ?

 

[Birger]

Yup, that's the correct one, but would you use that for Cyprus?
This would be more accurate for the CK time period:

http://perso.numericable.fr/~earlyblazo/nation/crusaderStates/chypre.htm

(This would work for the later scenario)

Here's the royal seal of Levon VI (1340-93).

About the colors, they're most definitly supposed to be like on the pic you posted. The middle arms would be kingdom of Jerusalem.
I've never seen a blue shield with a yellow jerusalem cross, the only other color variation I've seen is the red/yellow one @ Heraldique Europenne

http://www.heraldique-europeenne.org/Regions/Balkans/Jerusalem.htm

Here's how the Jerusalem arms appear/evolve in Chronica Majora

 

[Veldmaarschalk]

Very good looking shields, is there a special reason why you make those ? Since they are not in the CK1 format

 

[Birger]

Glad you like 'em, I'm making my own "source image" site.
Those shields are scaled down, they're originally 512x512.

You can see more shields here:
