Awesome great work as always is there a set faction list for Flagellum Die and Majorian or is it subject to change still
Nice to see them all in one place for reference.
I survived the Mayan Apocalypse 12/21/12
Hi Knight
We have pretty much the basic factions but such factions as the Frisians or Thurigians are not yet set in stone
Hi Joar,
Sicily will be under the Vandals in 457AD and in 453 they will be under the WRE. Some fine tunning still needs to be done to the maps![]()

Very interesting! Cant wait to see the faction lists..
I guess the two last maps 453 and 457 are the ones for the grand campaign.
But was there not more land eastwards in the RTW-mods? And even a faction like the Kidarites/Heptalites fighting against the northeastern borders of the Sassanids?
And why would you start a campaign in 453 at the death of Attila? WouldnŽt it be more logical starting earlier to create his huge kingdom?
p.s. and just for my personal interest - had Rome no influence anymore in Spain and Gaul around 457, cause there are only grey rebell areas?
Was there no central administration anymore paying attention to or being appointed by the Roman State?
Not all RTW-mods include an eastward addition. This is the cut off point for our mod for we intend on completing it. When completed then yes, the possibility of extending the map eastward may be a possibility
453 start is not etched in stone yet.
Majorian had to reconquer quite a bit of territory to reclaim what was once Roman. The Burgundians, Visigoths, Suebi and Franks had again expanding. Provinces away from Italy, saw this and began to tend to them selves such as they did in Britain Amorica, parts of Gaul and Spain..central administration had no longer control there. Aegidious was in N Gaul, north of the Loire and it will be under WRE. It just needs an update. Aetius was now dead two years and no one strong enough was in the picture except for the possibility of Majorian, thus the Empire was dissipating fast. Majorian actually was able to restore much that was lost but his failed campaign to retake Africa from the Vandals caused him a sorry end and so pretty much went the Empire. So its 457 where the WRE survival lays in the balance

Great to see all the maps together! But I thought there was only going to be four campaigns yet there is five maps? Anyway really looking forward to play all of them. Great work on conqvestvs britannaie.![]()
I have some questions from looking at the maps, I have not played the game.
-Jutland seems to be missing The Angle (Anglen) as a province, considering that it was Angles, Saxons and Jutes invading Britain (hence Anglo-Saxons); would that not be a locical inclusion? As factions as well?
-the "Kingdom" or Confederation of modern Denmark should probably not include Norway, but should include Skåne as the actual tribe called Danes originated around Øresund and Denmark from the time we first learn of it until 1658 when the Swedes took it, included Skåne.
-The same Kingdom or confederation can be argued to have been at least a strong allliance/confederation between Danes and Jutes since the 3rd century. Some archeologists argues for a strong and centralised Kingdom since the 6th century.
Thanks for considering it.
Are the Flagellum Dei mods the same(Early and Late Campaign), or seperate? Just to ask
I hope they and the Odacer mod are released soon. I LOVE Convestes Britannia and Vandolorum, looking forward to getting even deeper into the dark ages poopy
Maybe I ought get the original IB.....but I just lurve my medieval 2 mess so much XD
Hi Macilrille
The maps is still very much in development especially the final 2 FD campaigns. Recent work has been done to the FD mod's major rivers and lakes making them navigable along with some other work on the map as well. The factions will be further defined on the map as we make our way to the final mod
Hi there Mr Kriegtooth
Yes, thus far they are separate campaigns

Ah cool
And so I dont have to make a new topic, im curious, will all the mod teams converge for FD when the others are finished, or near finished, or is it all completely seperate?
If you have questions about the area of Denmark at the time, feel free to pop me a PM and I shall see what I can do.
The point is that up until us and Sweden wasted each other in the 16th to 18th century in a powerplay between us as pawns of the great powers of that time who wanted Øresund divided between us, Denmark was in fact a significant regional power. Especially in prehistoric -> Middle Ages where our fertile land and central position on a trade route- and the easy logistics of the country being mainly islands and nowhere more than 81 Km away from the sea, made us quite powerful when united.
Anyways, ask if you are curious. I have an Ma in Viking-> Medieval History and an extensive knowledge of the prehistoric area, and am intermittently (when RL allows) on the EB2 Team.
