Batavia Total war - [Continued]

[Irishguy]

Thanks for the site!
we (Valkar) will look into it

[Valkar]

These info is really interesting, especially the fur combinated wig helm Thanks... I'll soon start improving my current Batavian Cavalry model

[intifadanyz]

Cheers and good luck for the mod that have common characteristic with our mod (Nusantara TW): Such as small faction numbers, small culture numbers, small map area and using native language.

We do aim higher but not over-ambitious! well, releasing the playable mod is the most important one.

[Valkar]

Yep! after that you can always edit more stuff. Add more factions etc.. Good luck with Nusuntara!

[Skullheadhq]

Never forget the VOC!

[Miroslav Klose]

Never forget the VOC!

You're a bit confused with Batavia on Java, aren't you
This is a tad different mod, read the first post again I'd say.

For the VOC I suggest this.

[Irishguy]

xD little bit a different time frame mate

[intifadanyz]

Nah Glorindel and Irishguy, Skullheadhq is neither confused with Batavia on Java nor confused about the time frame...

Of course he know about that, coz he is the member of Nusantara TW mod....and a proud Dutch guy that want to revive the glory of his nation as conqueror at sea... 1700 years after the time-frame of your mod...

What he mean is, if you wish good luck for Nusantara TW, don't forget the VOC....


Well, at first I also not realize that the word "Betawi" (Malay word for Batavia) of Jakarta came from Batavia at the homeland of Netherlands. I am well aware about the habit of Western Colonialists to change the local town names to their words, but after Valkar proposed Batavia TW that I realized that Batavia is the name of Netherlands homeland....

And Lykos said that Dutch changed the Jayakarta (old name of Jakarta, Capital of Indonesia) to Batavia after conquered it, because they despised Indonesian so much after their ambassadors have been beheaded.

[Irishguy]

oooh OK
sorry for that!

[Miroslav Klose]

Ah right.

[Sabazios]

so we can soon play batavians and VOC, thats just great.

[Irishguy]

xD wel soon is not the word

[Sabazios]

xD wel soon is not the word

go back to work you

[Cinuz]

Yeah, if short is not the word, why are you here posting messages instead of working?!?

You're not supposed to post here if not to tell us you've finished the mod (or to show us some previews!)

Jockes apart, are there some news?

[Irishguy]

eehmmm... valkar's got a week off now I think
I just had my week off did some work on the map but I was busy with social life ^^ But I think I'll be able to squeeze it in some where

BTW: I WILL!!!

[intifadanyz]

I am here to cheer you!

go go Batavia! go go Batavia!

well, Batavian is the ancestor of VOC. No Batavian, no VOC!!!

But it seem that VOC will land on Malay Archipelago shores soon..... before Batavia finished

[Irishguy]

I now did the Wadden islands

[Valkar]

Maybe some pics from the Map Irishguy? I think many are curious, including me

[Valkar]

A few unit previews added. Still busy... Hang on for more.
BTW Irishguy the Tarzan pose unit cards will be replaced soon

About Germanic Zwaardvechter, when we're using our native language, why not call them 'Germaansche/Germaanse Zwaardkrijger'?
