I know you'll probably say no but put Scotland back in . They where in the XGM mod like Lithuania was . Unless of course your planing to put a more badass faction back in .

lol at XGM I meant XMTW . Anyway I'm sure you already know but the Armored Pikemen and Swiss Halberdiers need new skins or whatever in modbabble . I'd say as a suggestion only for the halberdiers the Volgue model would work pretty well .

[Axe-Battler]

Thanks for bringing that back up.

Actually right before I released 8.1 with luthuania added in, it made me think that scotland might be better off being in the campaign, afterall more factions never hurt anyone right?

So most likely in the next release you will see scotland in the campaign.

Any thought of recreating the original XTW? (MTW original with the Xtra provinces, extra /different units per faction)?

That would be a logical successor for those like me who played MTW into the ground, then XTW into the ground....

[Andrea69]

Do you mean the XL Mod? I strongly support this suggestion. It is still a great mod to play with, far better than vanilla MTW.
For example, please readd Portugal and the multiple italian factions back (actually the XL Mod has 4 different factions: Genoese, Milanese, Venetians and Sicilians).

[Axe-Battler]

I have already decided to add factions that were in the XL mod, such as lithuania, wallachia, volga bulgars, etc... units as well.

and yes many units need new skins, like the swiss armoured pikes, swiss halberds, abyssnian guards, etc.. that will be done in much later versions.

So far since this was made, I've updated a version that has added scotland back into the campaign, added lithuania faction, timurids are now the volga bulgarians, and added cicilian armenians.

I doubt that I will add the portugal faction into the campaign, I'd rather fill that slot with a faction that has a more darker feel to it...portugal has a more "modern" feel to it.

As for adding extra italian factions, I don't want to cram italy, and I like venice imitating a whole italian faction.

If I was to add multiple italian factions, it would take so many faction slots, and cram italy.

I would rather add factions to a spot that has lots of room, like the middle east, steppes, central europe, africa, etc..

thank you all for the suggestions.

read and hear many complaints about the tw games after mtw. and there are some things i miss myself. so i find it a great idea that u just tried to do something about it.
i ll write some feedback after i really tried out your mod.

You only got 7.5 kb/s on the filefront link???!!!

I'll check it out, it shouldn't be doing that.

Maybe it's just you have a net problem with filefront?

I'll upload it to another link as soon as possible.

Even though it might make it a little less like the original med i think you should add a few more provinces... especially in the UK, so ireland is made up of 2 and England is made up of around 6. Also a few more in some other areas around the map.

[Axe-Battler]

I wanted to add that tiny little island off the island of sicily...that's necessary because it was in mtw1.

Making ireland 2, maybe, but it will steer away from mtw1 ireland was just 1 province.

I want to get rid of timbuktu, and arguin...and make them unreachable.

I'm trying to think of more regions that are missing from mtw1.

Tell me if you guys think of any.

The only problem is I don't have a mapper... lol

[Jimmeh36]

heres a site with all the units and stats http://www.gamefaqs.com/computer/dos...e/539605/19142
I think you should still keep the units that arent there though.

i couldnt find a regions map but if u have the old game jst go into the campaign and type god mode and itl show all the provinces...

[Jimmeh36]

yeah malta should be their definitly

[Jimmeh36]

and one more thing
it wud be good if u cud do titles that u cud personally designate to ur generals like in the medieval

thank you for that! I actually will find that very useful as I no longer have the old medieval.

Malta was one of the regions I was refering to above.

Yes I was using dearmad's BBB title mod with the 1.1 patch versions of this mod.

Until he gets his new version out for 1.2 patch then I will include it again, he gave me permission before I'm sure he'd do it again.

[Jimmeh36]

keep up the good work

[Jimmeh36]

one problem with the medieval units is that for example all the western powers have the same units except for one or two and same for the other areas.

yes but this was the same case with mtw1.

Especially in mtw1, almost all catholic factions were identical in units.

In mtw2, CA actually gave us alot more variety between catholics, and muslims vary more than they did in mtw1...I think alot of people lack appreciation for this to an extent.

In other words, every catholic factions, muslims as well have their distinct units, sometimes multiple of them.

In the future I'll be adding more units of course...just have to get a unit maker, uggh.

[Jimmeh36]

anuther thing i remember - factions cud respawn randomly if they had been defeated. So they jst had about 4 or 5 full armies spawning around one of ther old provences usualy one that wus near revolt.

[Axe-Battler]

oh hell I wish I could include that but it may be hardcoded. lol

Someone I heard was trying to figure it out by scripting, I think alpaca, until anyone gets it to work we all assume it's hardcoded.

Minor crap now , like renaming the byz infantry to something else for the armenians and stuff like that .
