Mod: Europa Barbarorum 1.2, heavily modded
Faction: Seleucid Empire/Koinon Hellenon/Ptolemaioi
A generation has passed since Ptolemaios II stabbed himself, since Hannibal of Carthage, that teenage death-dealer, conquered the proud lands of Aigyptos.
The world shakes and crumbles; stability is nonexistent. The Greek leagues war with one another, Macedon throws off the yoke of Epeiros, and the Seleucid Empire buckles under the weight of its own territories.
And into this steps a man, descended from the Consuls of Rome and purportedly Ptolemaios and Alexandros himself...
Ptolemy Flavius Decurius.

Mod: A vaireity of mods I picked when browsing through the ETW section, all of them for the purpose of complete historical ccuracy, correct representation, and more realistic battles. A full list of mods used can be found in the original thread.
Faction: Great Britain
Captain Steven Baker has recently joined the King's Own Royal Infantry. nervous, young, inexperinced, he bears every trait of a failed command. As assumed he meets doubts and harsh critics by the time he reaches the marching army through Franconia. Baker himself has skirmished near Mainz, rescued two of his companies near Ladenburg, and battled through the inferno of Schellenberg. Yet, still, he faces his worst challenge; the battle of Blenheim. The armies of England, Holland, Prussia, Denmark and Austria march to battle with the French and Bavarians, and it is a climatic battle to the intense War of Spanish Succesion. Will Captain Baker collaspe under the pressure of army command? Will he live up to the doubts of his own commanding officer, and company, the light infantry?
Whatever the outcome, the story of Steven Baker will be a fascinating and educational trip back into the 18th Century. Personally written by Baker himself, this story will take the reader through battles and forts, accompanied by pictures worth a thousand words.

Difficulty:Varries from mod. I only used hard or v.hard settings so far.Description:
History of men is a project unlike any other. It tries to write the whole spectrum of history in a single AAR. It goes back to the Rise of Persia around 550BC and will see the rise and fall of the roman empire (current status) and continue through medieval times to the discovery of america, modern times and world wars. It is written less in a narrative form, but rather as a compilation of fictional historical sources.
