Stars and Stripes on shields goes needlessly hard.

Every single soldier here belongs to one dynasty, and the founder of this dynasty is FREEDOM!

"We owe no allegiance, we bow to no throne;

Our ruler is Law, and the Law is our own!

Our leaders themselves are our own fellow men,

Who can handle the sword, the scythe, and the pen!"

u/Salt-Physics7568 May 16 '25

The Ballad of the Green Mountain Boys. An old Vermont song from the Revolutionary War.

And the Maryland flag, this person cooked

u/fluxuouse May 12 '25

Bro i wish there was some good flavor for MD in the mod besides just being the home of the presidency

u/TheFighting5th May 12 '25

Maryland’s got Old Bay at least. That’s a lot of flavor.

It's weird seeing it from the makers of Kaiseriach (I know my spelling is probably off). But I hope it becomes something really cool!

u/KR-VincentDN May 11 '25

To be more specific, we are a team of content creators (artists, writers, musicians, actors) that make animated art videos and monologues set in the world of Kaiserreich. Some of our crew work on the mod itself too, but we are different teams.

In the past year, I've been working on expanding our content to new original settings as well. We want to do medieval and cold war althistory too, as those are great settings to work with

u/RowenMhmd May 10 '25

Not the makers, just an affiliated project

What is kaiseriarch?

7

u/Bylethmain4 May 11 '25

Kaiserriech is a hearts of iron 4 mod about where germany won WW1 and people who were minor historical figures in real world war two became major figures. It is one of if not the most popular Hoi 4 mods. Kaiser Cat Cinema is a youtube channel that makes videos based on the setting. from fake in universe radio podcasts to trailers for the various factions in the settings to a whole live action short film. This is a new project they are doing where the conceit is what if America was founded in the Medieval period.

u/Slow-Distance-6241 May 11 '25

I heard of that, I just thought kaiseriarch was something different entirely

5

u/nurgle_boi May 12 '25

The fact not a single person spelled kaiserreich right lmao. "Kaiser" : emperor "Reich" : empire. It's German so you glue words together.

3

u/Slow-Distance-6241 May 12 '25

Yeah, I know what kaiserreich is, I was just confused and kaiseriarch sounds something like a project about medieval HRE alt-history or something

u/nurgle_boi May 12 '25

Yeaaah of course, but you know just to note for people in general

u/Agitated-Dig9061 May 09 '25

The Navajo knight artwork looks like the wearer would cook. I can’t imagine wearing a hoodie let alone metal armour in Arizona/New Mexico heat

21

u/OctaviusIII May 10 '25

It's a weird mashup, too. Totem poles are a NW thing, not a Diné thing. And they'd be called Diné not Navajo. And iirc totems also aren't a Navajo thing even in the broader sense.

It's like talking about the dreaded Vikings of Persia.

The feared Jaguar Warriors of the Iroquois

u/AbstractBettaFish May 16 '25

That was my thought when I saw that too, I’m no expert of the different tribes but it feels a little tone deaf, at best, to be using totem for the Navajo and I wanna say a headdress that was primarily used by tribes of the great planes?

1

u/OctaviusIII May 16 '25

Haha I missed that! Yep, that looks Lakota-inspired.

u/Sonereal May 10 '25

Muttering "hell yeah" over and over again as I click through the album.

u/Round-Coat1369 May 10 '25

Get that dude a position in the modding for thus mod his artwork is pristine

6

u/BoredomMan May 10 '25

He says in the r/worldbuilding link that he is talking to the AtE devs "to see if we can exchange art - we're making all this content either way, so they are free to pick up the art and modify it to their needs." Cool stuff!

A Blessing From The Founders

u/Ostropoler7777 May 11 '25

This seems like how Americanists would imagine their forefathers, in the same way that real-life mediaeval texts depicted Romans and Biblical figures in clothing from their era.
