General Information
Phoenix mod is based on Steppe Wolf mod, but unlike its predecessor, Phoenix mod, won't crash on loadingscreen (if you play Phoenix over original Europa Universalis III: Divine Winds v. 5.1 from 22 July 2011 and not in Steam). The mod is also compatible with Spritepacks for EU3.
The only way to found out your limits is to cross the boundaries of your own mind! Who said Rome can't wait until the Age of Renaissance or that China should be dominated by Manchu instead of Khan Dynasty?! Phoenix game would gave you the power of ruler, challenged with the survival of his (her) state, internal and political problems.
Phoenix time scope is 11 AD - 2010 AD, with beautiful and rich map composed by 3283 provinces. If you are sick from wastelands, lack of small and unpopular states or the short timeline of Europa Universalis III this mod will grab your attention.
The main aim of the game remains unchanged, but spiced up - you have to guide your state in the cruel political realm, managing to hold on it as long as possible. Some players goes further craving to seize the Golden Constantinople, holding firmly the trade between Europe and Asia, occupy the Holy town of Jerusalem or restoring ancient empires such as Rome and Alexander the Great - Macedonia (thought for history accuracy ancient Macedonians in the game are from Illiric culture, not Greek).
Some of the players with touch for diplomacy would prefer to govern over the small trade republic such as Genoa, Pisa, Ragusa, Theodoro or Venice, interfering with the world conflicts with heavy sacks of gold instead of iron blades.
In this master mod the politic would be part of existence of your state, whether you like it or not you would be involved in dynastic struggles, dynastic marriages, alliances or spy games.
For the experienced strategy players, this master mod is so desired mix between Age of Empires II, Medieval: Total War and Civilization III.
The technology levels are completely reworked - now they are fewer and made in a way that they are compatible with Spritepacks for EU3.
