Thank you both, glad you're still enjoying it, and that I could find some free time to continue it.

Also, Roman Heritage I am currently reading your latest chapter :laughter:, it's great so far!

Bonus: The Battle of the Vardar River Basin (Just rebels, since it’s been a while since I posted a battle.)

Chapter XIII: Pax Romana

From the writings of Manouil Komnenos, 1142 AD,

This past year has been the most peaceful one I have experienced in a long while. I now wait in the one-time capital of...

Awesome! Anatolikoi Eugeneis are one of my favorite units!

Do those Anatolian Axemen take the place of Anatolian Hillmen? They look great by the way!

Thank you both, I really appreciate the advice, I have actually been trying to pace myself in how I post chapters. University is also keeping me kinda busy at the moment, so that's another reason...

Chapter XII: The Assault on Ras

From the writings of Grand Prince Uros, 1140 AD,

The Roman soldiers look like ants from the top of my battlements. I don’t have the men to defend this fortress...

The walls of Ikonion are tall, but they will not protect the sultan or his men from the wrath of...

Chapter X: War in the West

From the writings of Basileios Ioannis Komnenos, 1139 AD,

The time has come to test the true metal of Rome. The Serbians must be struck and they must be struck hard,...

Chapter VIII: Ankyra

From the writings of Sultan Mes Ud, 1137 AD,

I should have acted, I should have done something… Even though the odds were against us, perhaps if I took all of our forces...

Thank you both! And they are just models that I threw together for my personal usage because I thought Caudillo's units were a bit unfitting for the time period.

Chapter VII: The battle for Baku

From the writings of Giorgi Bagrationi, 1136 AD,

The rebels occupying Baku are out of food and they have yet to surrender. My men are ready for this fight,...

Thank you both for the feedback! I am playing both factions. I'm just glad you guys are enjoying it so far. Hopefully I'll have the next chapter up later today or tomorrow. I already have the...

Chapter I: The Intro

From the writings of Symbasileios Alexios Komnenos,

My father inherited a broken empire. The year is 1132, and the Empire of the Romans is in shambles. Our armies are...

Great job with these! CBUR really needed such an update. My only suggestions would be to get rid of the big crosses on the chests of a lot of the infantry, as I think that they're a bit distracting,...

They were the second largest source of military power on cyprus to the local greek militias. And just because the templars technically existed doesn't mean that it's worth representing them in game,...

A phalanx is a specific formation, not just any formation. Same as every square is a rectangle, but not every rectangle is a square. This isn't even relevant, I just wanted to correct the incorrect...

A phalanx is a particular pike formation, not just any pike formation. It is essentially only a reference to the formation that the ancient macedonians fought in, in which they had several lines of...

Fair enough, if you want to keep the templar order around, that's your guys decision, I was just suggesting that the kingdom of cyprus be represented by the hospitallers as a way of clearing the edu...

The zirids were not a powerful faction, so giving them a bunch of elite units would be massively misrepresenting them. They should have mostly light arab and berber troops, not egyptian, and they...

While I'm at it, the byzantines and bulgarians were also at war in 1300 (war didn't officially break out until 1302, but the byzantines and bulgarians were in perpetual conflict up until this point,...

Phalanxes and pikemen are two different things, pikemen existed as anti-cavalry units, but they didn't fight in phalanx style. As far as the Romans were concerned, they mostly utilized lightly...

A possible solution to the entire Muscovy problem, seeing as how it was not quite a minor state at the time period would be to combine Novgorod and Muscovy into one faction and just call it the...

To simplify things, it might be beneficial to have the Knights of St. John (Order of the Knights Hospitaller) as a faction instead of just generalizing them as crusaders. I say this because the...

The byzantines get pretty decent infantry and some ridiculous shock cav (assuming you retake constantinople). The only problem with them is that their starting position is really difficult.

The turks didn't hold any ground anywhere on TGC's map until 1071, which is the end date of the mod.. I think they're supposed to appear then, kind of like the mongols in vanilla m2tw.

The Georgians had their fair share of glory, just like many other nations of the time. To say that they were just vassals or occupied by other major powers most of the time is to greatly oversimplify...

The latest preview looks great! :thumbsup2

I have been fascinated with the history of the balkans for as long as I can remember, so when I found out about this mod, and I saw what you guys were doing to recreate this pivotal time in history,...

I think it's fair to say this mod is dead, it's a shame, but it happens.

Sorry mate, I think you're out of luck

I don't want to be annoying, but is this dead?
