Sons of God - An Ultimate Crusades mod

[0TheLastTemplar0]

Hi fellas, I've been working on a small sub-mod for Broken Crescent called "Jerusalem Rising". This submod was primarily intended to overhaul and improve the Jerusalem faction in BC. I've released an Alpha for it, see here for further details: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...scent-Released. Now I'm thinking about going a little bigger. Why stop at just recreating a cooler Jerusalem? Why not make this into an epic Crusades mod? My question for you guys is, would anybody like to see such a mod made? And is there anybody willing to work with me on such a project?

Here are some ideas I have:

Factions

Christian
Kingdom of Jerusalem
Kingdom of France
Kingdom of England
Holy Roman Empire
Byzantine Empire
Kingdom of Armenia

Muslim
Fatimid Caliphate
Ayubbid Sultanate as an emergent faction
Sultanate of Damascus
Seljuks of Rum
Abbasid Caliphate
Khwarezmian empire

Others
Mongols as an emergent faction

Mod Overview

-1 year = 4 turns
-A new and expansive map
-dynamic script, that will create a challenging AI and introduce religious and culture mechanics
-Campaign starts in 1099 and ends in 1300
-New traits and ancillaries for characters
-Realistic units, proper use of secondary weapons, archers that actually fire arrows and brand new art/UI
-New music and sounds

Well, this is surprising! After you make an epic submod, you decide to use your momentum to create an entire mod? Well, I wish you luck and if this is as good as Jerusalem Rising, it will be one of the must have mods!

If it is like your submod it will be wonderful, good luck.

Have been hoping for something like this for a long, long time.

If you can find a good mapper with some free time you may want to do a mod focusing on a much smaller area on where the crusades took place or planned to go, that way many of the more famous castles, towns and other cities could be added. Specifically the Levant, Cilicia (sp?) northern Egypt, western Mesopatameia.

I think you have good ambitions but this is very hard to do because this will require a lot of time and effort. The faction list is ok but i think you will need more factions in Europe and one or two in middle east to balance it out well.

Looks good will be keeping my Eyes on this.

I hope the KOJ will not have too many religious order units.

Here's something that should help you a lot: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...ck-for-Modders
