I see. It's an indescribably beautiful work, but the idea that Carthaginians (or any faction) would've been successful in so many far-flung areas seems like wishful thinking on the part of some...
What makes anyone think that Carthaginian culture would've worked in Illyria enough to account for being able to build type 2 gov't?
How did you guys decide on where to draw the line?
Why would...
I've been looking but I don't think I've seen a screenshot of the BigMap start-up positions. Anyone help out with that? I saw one that was really grainy and there were no Moors on the Iberian...
Well this battle had an actual screen that asked me if I wanted to join, and I have never seen that before. Is that part of UAI, or SS, or just plain ol' ME2?
I got it to happen again and noticed:...
AWESOME!
Never saw that before and was blown away.
I'm the Sicilians, allied with the French. I get an 'Event' saying "Paris has fallen!". So I get an Army together, petition the Pope for a...
How about stationing some advanced units in some key places, even if they can't yet be built? In M:TW Paris had an Organ Gun. It'd be nice if a few factions started off with a Catapult, here and...
Mister Lusted, I found EB.
Well, I must say, "I'm stunned."
For someone who's studied history all his life... I'm not exaggerating; tears came to my eyes.
Why didn't you mention it? The...
From what I've seen, you should all be very proud of what you'd made here. I believe it to be the most accurate rendition of the past of any I've seen in any of these forums, and there's some bloody...
I'm already playing Stainless Steel, so ambitious mods are out there. They did such a smashing job on SS, I thought I'd see if there are (and there are...) mods that were even bigger available now,...
Hey Lusted, I've seen mods available that are of similar construct. Hell, I've played some. Wait a minute, you've actually CREATED one yourself! Maybe you have a machine that crams 2 years into 7...
Too busy grading students, too busy running a family, and above all: I don't know a single bloody thing about bloody modding. And too old to learn (take it from me).
In any case, I'm looking for a...
I got to the America's once. There were 10 turns left in the game.
I said, "GREAT!"
and then I ate a pizza....
Please help!
I need a GIANT map, 31 Factions, and no America's.
0.50 Turn scale. :smile:
Realistic movement (Increased). :thumbsup2
Historical accuracy (some roads and a market in Athens...
Thanks, Mate!
Another idea, I don't know if this is possible, but often times a besieged Castle would negotiate the surrender for 'Free Passage'. Is there anyway to add another choice in the...
Hostages in Diplomacy.
Add a line in the diplomacy screen "Offer Hostages", and one "Request Hostages"
Exchange of hostages was the highest form of secured agreement.
Example: France (me)...
Largest possible map w/ 199 Territories, No New World, Max. Factions (one 'Rebel' - so they can create units/buildings), 0.50 turns, Regional Recruitment, UAI on steroids, Hostages in diplomatic...
I've been playing as the Byzantines and Sicilians, (W/ quickfix #3 and Quarks mini-mod replacement for Darthmod), and I can tell you that this map is the best I've seen so far (good balance of size...
Byzantines, Venetians and Sicilians. Love naval factions.
I think sacking and exterminating both hurt your rep. which makes it so that you (if you want a good rep.) really have to watch how your use those options, making them more important decisions; which...
Thanks Byg, I'll get the hang of this message board stuff before long.
Bloody good idea, btw.
You must really like me.
I thought more people knew about these, but I guess I'm wrong. Google:

Oh, just sit on the boat for a turn.... gotcha. (I think!)
How do you do it?
Sorry if this is addressed somewhere else, but there's about a zillion threads here now, and I have to get some play time in before the wife gets home, no time to read all of...
LOL! Oh, goodness...
I've been playing all day, will continue to play all night and the only suggestion I can come up with is making the settlements 'play ready', as in, I should be able to...
Navarre, while never having claimed to experience a "Golden Age" (coughs), it does have one fairly cool descendant: ME! Check out the Basque flag tattooed to my arm.
Most Spanish fleets had Basque...
wow...
I'm really impressed with some of the more arcane points made by many posters here. Though I would stress more of the dynastic problems plaguing the Empire. Remember, this is the Empire that fought...
Buffed Constantinople? That must be new, 'cos that's what I was just playing. Thanks, I'll check it out.
A sticky with all the available map's from the various mods and factions in those mods.
Marto's idea is a no-brainer, too. Good idea.
I wish I were that skilled. Literally JUST learned how to add/remove traits from Vanilla.
Plus, I feel like a 'newbie' that doesn't want to inject myself into other people's area's of expertise. ...
Is there anywhere I can go to see all completed Mod Campaign Maps and corresponding Faction Lists?
I am looking for Maximum Factions, Maximum Settlements, Maximum AI, and Maximum Unit Balance,...
My suggestion: Death Zones.
Any Non-Arab army staying in the Sahara or Arabian desert outside a city for one turn loses 10-20% of it fighting force. Any Non-Slavic army staying in the Pripet...
I'd rather have the AI pumped up than me knocked down, but a lot of stars just looks cool?
:yes:
