    And I thought we would only get one new faction in 2.4 along with some other features. This is absolutely wonderful news, I am eagerly anticipating 2.4 now.

    The previewed units, like all BC units, are amazing. One of the things I love the most is the variation among soldiers.

    I guess the new factions will be: the Imamate of Yemen (obviously), the Atabegs of Mosul, the Kara Khitan Khanate, the Principality of Vladimir-Suzdal and maybe the Kingdom of Ethiopia. This is in line with my hope that the new map will already be included in BC 2.4.

    All I can say is, wow. The amount of research that went into this and the amount of time it must have taken to craft such beautiful units is amazing.

    It looks to me that the jump from 2.3 to 2.4 is going to be pretty significant.

    Thank you for your enthusiasm and praise. :
    Not quite there with the faction guessing though.
    I can tell you 2 of your 5 are right. It's up to the fans to guess now. I'll comment if someone gets them all right.

    Thanks for the compliments and comments!
    It is going to be a lot bigger than 2.02 to 2.3 lets just say.

    @TheMalevolentKing: I presume the the latter 3 are out of 2.4 then. Here is my revised list then:
    the Imamate of Oman, the Atabegs of Mosul, the Atabegs of Azerbaijan, the Seljuks of Kerman, the Atabegs of Fars. Maybe the Malikate of Mazandaran instead of one of these factions.

    I based my new list on the BC team probably wanting to finish up the remaining major Islamic factions in the Middle East before expanding the map to include more factions, going by your post and the posts of other team members on other threads.

    I'm not going to say any more are right until someone gets them all right.
    Don't think I'm ignoring your post if you guess, its just that they aren't all right.


    btw Guys, don't forget to rep ALFAJI, he was the one who did 95% of the research for this faction.

    My guess of new factions...
    Imamate of Yemen, Shirvanshahs of Azerbaijan, Atabegs of Mosul, Kieven Rus, and a Nizari Ismaili state (with Assassins!).

    My dream faction though would be an emergent horde of Kwarazmian mercenaries who cause havoc across the Middle East if the Khwarazm Shahs are conquered by the Mongols.

    Absolutely superb. I love the red in the uniforms. Rep +1. BC is still my favorite mod, together with Third Age TW. Unbelievable how much time, energy and dedication you guys put into them. I sincerly thank you for that.

    Amazing preview!

    I like it that every tribe has its own 'identity'

    I wish I could see the sources, because those are some interesting teasers in the unit desc.

    ~Wille
    Thorolf was thus armed. Then Thorolf became so furious that he cast his shield on his back, and, grasping his halberd with both hands, bounded forward dealing cut and thrust on either side. Men sprang away from him both ways, but he slew many. Thus he cleared the way forward to earl Hring's standard, and then nothing could stop him. He slew the man who bore the earl's standard, and cut down the standard-pole. After that he lunged with his halberd at the earl's breast, driving it right through mail and body, so that it came out at the shoulders; and he lifted him up on the halberd over his head, and planted the butt-end in the ground. There on the weapon the earl breathed out his life in sight of all, both friends and foes. [...] 53, Egil's Saga
    I must tell you here of some amusing tricks the Comte d'Eu played on us. I had made a sort of house for myself in which my knights and I used to eat, sitting so as to get the light from the door, which, as it happened, faced the Comte d'Eu's quarters. The count, who was a very ingenious fellow, had rigged up a miniature ballistic machine with which he could throw stones into my tent. He would watch us as we were having our meal, adjust his machine to suit the length of our table, and then let fly at us, breaking our pots and glasses.

    Bravo.
    TGC in order to continue its development seak one or more desicated scripters to put our campaign scripts mess to an order plus to create new events and create the finall missing factions recruitment system. In return TGC will give permision to those that will help to use its material stepe by step. The result will be a fully released TGC plus many mods that will benefit TGC's material.
    Despite the mod is dead does not mean that anyone can use its material
    read this to avoid misunderstandings.

    IWTE tool master and world txt one like this, needed inorder to release TGC 1.0 official to help TWC to survive.
    Adding MARKA HORSES in your mod and create new varietions of them. Tutorial RESTORED.

    There's no need for that. KoJ already has extended roster. If anything, we will include paco's units.

    Will this units added to the current ones? or will the current ones be replaced? Cuz the current Ansar Infantry was badass, one of my fav units.
