    Default Historical Battles?

    I realise that the members from the team are probably way too busy to do this, but have any other modders thought of creating scripted historical battles for Medieval Kingdoms? Eg Agincourt, Crecy or others (those two are admittedly the only battles I actually know by name from the medieval period).

    Basically you choose a vanilla map (or make a custom one), decide where the units for both sides will spawn in, decide how the intro cinematics will work eg camera angles and subtitles, decide what the AI will try and do eg attack or defend something, and more. I tried making a tutorial earlier this year, but I never got around to finishing explaining cutscenes.lua or start.lua, which are two pretty important files.

    Its worth a thought if any modders are looking for something cool to do.

    Historical battles can be done easily, but the main focus is on the campaign at present.

    Yikes there are many cool battles. Maybe you should make a poll or something
