Byzantine Army – Greek army replacer
Requires Death or Dishonor & Waking the Tiger.

This mod was originally meant to serve as an addition to any other mod featuring Byzantium. Since Paradox added Byzantium as a cosmetic option for Greece, I figured I might as well release a separate version for the base game.
This roster includes unique infantry, marine, paratrooper & mountaineer textures (all based on the Italian infantry model) as well as a tank retexture, based on the Italian heavy tank model to serve as the Byzantine medium & heavy armor.
Acclimatization is supported as well.
Unfortunately, HOI4’s Byzantium doesn’t use its own tag, and is essentially just Greece with a different name & flag (ie, it uses the GRE tag, not the BYZ one this mod is about. Unlike EUIV, HOI4 doesn’t make you switch tags when you form a new nation.). Therefore, this army roster acts as a replacer for the generic European sprite currently used by Greece.
Meaning that any other mod, skin pack that tinkers with the Greek military won’t be compatible with this mod. Moreover, those skins are purely fictional and were originally meant for an equally fictional, surviving Byzantium set in an alternate reality. They have next to nothing to do with what the Greek military actually looked like in this time period. If historical accuracy is your thing, I’m really sorry about that.
Anyone is free to use this content as they please if they so wish. Just don’t forget to give credit where credit is due.
Be sure to let me know if anything is or looks wrong and I’ll look into it.
