[DekuTrash]

Hello everyone, the content staff is currently working on an video interview with the one and only Hross. If you have a question you would like to ask him regarding DOTS put it here! Please read other questions to see if someone has asked the same one as you so we don't end up with five of the same one.

[Dominick]

When are we going to see all the PSF models? Will there be specifical battlefields for every PSF model?

[Tomato_Sandwich]

Yeh, when are we getting paid

And what was the final decision on crusades?

[Hengest]

Scripted crusades?

[Tomato_Sandwich]

Scripted crusades?

the idea fills me with a vague sense of apprehension, but i trust in your judgement as ever Will the joining them and all that still be the same then? As we have Godfrey of Bouillon as a general i want to make him join a Crusade! it would please me!

Just one more: how are Papal Elections going to work? im getting excited at being allowed to ask questions

Also, i think people should be told about the exciting amount of named characters being put around the campaign and their affects of gameplay. clearly it is very important :

[Hengest]

I think that's the first thing the reviewers will notice mate!

[mmhh]

Hi, first let me express many thanks for this mod, it's awesome. My question is, will PFSs, occupied by enemy in my province, affect income or has any other effect in that province's city\castle? I am wondering if not, what is the meaning of addition of PSF if i can let enemies or rebels occupy them and just forget about that?

[Nordfeldt]

I only recently discovered this gem of a mod. I am looking very much forward to playing it! My question:

Are custom settlements going to be included? TATW really sets a new standard for MTW2 mods there imo. Are you planning to do this for key settlements?

[sharpie12]

sorry if this question has already been answered somewhere but I was wondering what work has been done to the BAI?

[Dago Red]

It looks long but it's all one question:

What kinds of things are you doing to prevent total war battle fatigue, whether from stack spam or simply having too many battle encounters that are not decisive in their repercussions? We've all experienced it, stack after stack, after stack, glorious heroic victories and yet.... nothing decisive happens, because here comes stack after stack. And now you've added so many densely packed psf's it looks like one could hardly take a single turn through enemy territory without having an encounter, encounters that whether siege or field, will only add to the amount of battling that takes place barring a surrender or capitulation option.

[ceaser543]

Roughly what percentage of PSF battles will be land battles and what percentage will be siege battles?

[Crafty]

In the Grand Preview (in 2007 ) you said that some factions will start pagan and can change to another confession (like Poland and the skandinavians). What is the Status on that?

[dowdpride]

out of curiosity, will the ai have the annoying ability to have dismounted feudal knights or etc super early in the game while you are still using spear or town milita? it is increadibly annoying in vanilla and a lot of mods. is there any chance of getting rid of this?

[Walkman810i]

Will it blend?

[dowdpride]

i doubt it walkman

[Stark1]

Will cities be developed properly? I hate it when huge cities as Constantinople start as minor city or something similar, and I need wait 50 years before I can build units I should have from the start.

[Fatecheater]

How would the problem with Marriage Proposals and Births, which renders most ingame House heirless after a couple of generations, be solved in DoTS?

Since the release date was moved from the end of September to December, could we expect more contents and bug fixes in the initial release?

[lower]

will u use any unit from war of the west mode?

[barney85]

Just a little question here, will all the factions in a culture slot (eg orthodoxies, muslims, north europeans, south europeans, etc) all share generic "spear militia" or will there be differences (beside aesthetical) among the 'militia level' units of different factions within a culture slots?

thanks for reading,
barney

[Duke of Lancaster]

will u use any unit from war of the west mode?

I also hope they use units from the WOTW mod, I've just seen the English roster and it is outstanding.
