EUROPA CRUDUS

[Pope_Fred_I]

Introducing
for the first time ever...
Europa Crudus

Concept
The aim of the Europa Crudus is to create an environment that is as immersive and historically accurate as possible, while still preserving the gameplay of Medieval II:Total War. We also hope to exploit any and all available resources that become available as a result of the upcoming release of the Kingdoms expansion pack. Unlike some other mods, which limit themselves to more accurately portraying certain geographies or nationalities, our mod intends to inject a much needed dose of playable historical accuracy across the board.


Current Goals
While anticipating the release of Kingdoms, we are currently engaged in setting up our map. We have also begun to tweak several traits, ancillaries, and so on. We have also secured permission to include several existing mini-mods into our overall product. We have amassed an immense amount of historical data via our current research team, all of which will be of continual value to the team as we progress.


Upcoming projects
Our future and upcoming projects include (appearing here in no particular order), but are in no way limited to:
-progressively adding factions up to the 31-faction limit.
-implementation of any applicable features from Kingdoms
-reskins in accordance with more historical conventions of medieval army dress
-creation of several new historically accurate units
-the original MII:TW map utilizing the entire 198-province limit
-historically accurate family trees for all factions

Current Team
The current Europa Crudus team consists of:

Pope_Fred_I: Mod Lead, Head Researcher

Tanmos: Mod Manager, Scripter, Photoshoppist, Skinner, Et cetera ad nausea

hekk: Skinner, Scandinavian Researcher

Can you reveal your faction list?

Also, will you include the Americas in your game?

Thanks Great looking mod

[Pope_Fred_I]

There will be a faction list of some kinda (albeit temporary) by the end of the week.

The Americas are very much due for an overhaul, and I can assure you that at some point it will get it, assuming we can amass the manpower to pull it off within this century.

[Tanmos]

As requested here is our current faction list along with a small description for each one:

Kingdom of England- In the new map England will be split into several smaller provinces. Also, we are planning to incorporate some really sweet skins.
Rioghachd na h-Alba (Kingdom of Scotland)- The Scots get three starting provinces in our current plan, and will hopefully get some really wild kilted highlanders at some point.
Heiliges Römisches Reich (Holy Roman Empire)- HRE, as always, dominates Central Europe at the beginning of the game. With our planned expansions of the historical family trees to include the brothers, sisters, nieces, and nephews of the reigning monarch, Heinrich IV could have some issues with his historically rebellious in-laws.
Serenissima Repubblica di Venezia (The Most Serene Republic of Venice)- Venice, while not a notable land power at this time, has a trading empire in the Adriatic and Mediterranean that is scarcely rivaled in the West.
Kongeriget Danmark (Kingdom of Denmark)- The Danes retain some of their Nordic Viking flair, but also strive to be a civilized and Christian race.
Royaume de la France (Kingdom of France)- The French king has a lot of work to do. He must immediately take moves to consolidate his realm, or risk losing it—and possibly his head…
Reino de León y Castilla (Kingdom of Leon & Castille)- Embroiled in the Reconquista, this Kingdom is perhaps the dominant Christian power on the Iberian Peninsula.
Βασιλεία των Ρωμαίων (Byzantine Empire)- The last vestiges of the old Roman order still hold out in the East. They must cast a wary eye in either direction, or Nova Roma may go the way of its predecessor.
Królestwo Polskie (Kingdom of Poland)- Poland lies on the eastern frontier of Catholic Europe. The newly revamped family trees promise a family management challenge for any who would undertake the pressures of its crown.
Selçuklular (Seljuk Turks)- The Turks hold dominion over most of modern day Iraq, but have their sights set on destinations farther west…
al-Murabitun (Almoravid Emirate)- The Almoravids were what was known in vanilla as simply “Moors”.
al-Fātimiyyūn (Fatimid Caliphate)- The Fatimid Caliphate is, at the start of the game, quite possibly the most economically powerful and well-established Muslim entity on the map.
Kipchaks- These nomadic people are something akin to the Sarmatians of RTR. Rough, reliable, and riding down their enemies at every opportunity.
Reino de Aragón (Kingdom of Aragon)- Little cousin to the larger Leon & Castille, Aragon also must deal with the Muslim threat to their south.
Ducato di Apulia e della Calabria (Duchy of Apulia & Calabria)- Essentially a revamped Sicily, this powerful dukedom was the historical precursor to the Norman Kingdom of Sicily.
Patrimonium Sancti Petri (Patrimony of St. Peter)- The Holy See presides over a large portion of central Italy at the start of the game, and owns two provinces, not just one.
Repubblica di Genova (Republic of Genoa)- Genoa is the furthest north of the famed Maritime Republics in Italy.
Repubblica di Firenze (Republic of Florence)- Florence, future birthplace of the Renaissance, is, at this point in history, simply the capital of a newborn republic, and must struggle to survive.
Repubblica di Pisa (Republic of Pisa)- Long before the tower leaned, the masts of the Pisan fleets swayed in the harbors and on the seas of Italy.
Кыѥвьска Рѹсь (Kievan Rus)- The Rus are a hardy people of the north-central steppes of eastern Europe. They make money from their plentiful trade partnerships, and spend it fighting their plentiful enemies.
Īmūrīyān (Timurids)- The Timurids will remain essentially unchanged from vanilla 1.2, but may get a new skin here or there.
Mongolyn Ezent Güren (Mongols)- see Timurids
Szent István Koronájának Országai (Lands of the Crown of St. Stephen [Kingdom of Hungary])- Hungary will be getting some awesome new skins and shields, as well as new competition: Croatia now lies to the south.
Hrvatska (Kingdom of Croatia)- Historically the fledgling Kingdom of Croatia was subsumed by their larger Hungarian neighbors during the 12th and 13th Centuries. Can you rewrite history?
Kongeriket Norge (Kingdom of Norway)- The Norse have been slow to embrace most influences from the south, and still retain many of the Viking ways and habits—such as hacking their enemies to bits.
Sakartvelo (Kingdom of Georgia)- The ancient and venerable Kingdom of Georgia stands like a gatehouse across the Caucasus mountains, barring passage from north to south or vice versa. With new management coming to power in the south, they may be in for a wild ride ahead.
Aztecatl (Aztecs)- The Aztecs remain essentially unchanged from vanilla.
Haudenosaunee (Iroquois League)- The Iroquois League will form a potent Native American force in North America, especially after that part of the map is corrected geographically.
Brenhiniaeth chan Gwynedd (Kingdom of Gwynedd)- The Kingdom of Gwynedd is the strongest, and therefore the leader, among the tribes and factions of Wales. They have bows as tall or taller than a man, and know how to use them--especially on Englishmen.
Redactum partes (Lesser Factions)- Your garden variety Lesser Factions and rebels, with a much cooler name.

[Hounf of Culan]

I unfortunately can be of little help, but if you need info on Georgia then I would suggest you talk with "Tadzreuli", thats his forum name. He has provided alot of great historical info on Georgia for the Broken Crescent mod; and also, he has drawn many, historically accurate and very detailed, sketches of Medieval Georgian units for BC, which I'm sure he'd be willing to let you guys use for your mod.

Short description of Sakartvelos Samepo (kingdom of Georgia) and political situation at 1080 AD.:

In 1001 Georgian king Bagrat III Bagrationi united all Georgian principalities - principality of Kakheti, Abkhazian reign, principality Tao-Klardzheti and principality of Kartli into the united reign and in the Caucasus was formed new dominant power, the strong, centralized feudal state - Kingdom of Georgia (Sakartvelos Samepho). Georgian one of most is ancient of the modern peoples of world, having its statehood from the time of Kingdom of Colchis (from XII-VIII BC). In 319 ad to year Georgian became Christianity as state religion. Georgian alphabet one of 14 original alphabet in the world, created in V-III BC.

Georgian Apostolic Ortodoxal Church, based by apostles Andrey and by Simeon of Cana, became autocephaly in V century. Besides Georgia, great Georgian religion centers were based in Jerusalem, in Greece, in Cyprus, in Sinaye, in Egypt, in Syria and Palestine.

Most might, power and developments feudal Georgian reign reached in XI-XIII century, under the rule of the royal dinasty of Bagrations, from whom Georgia guided such famous to entire world monarchs, as David IV "the Builder"(r.1089-1125) and quin Tamara the Great (r. 1184-1213).
The might of Georgian Kingdom founded on the great military traditions, developed feodal economic infrastructure of the country into that epoch and certainly wise of the administration of the kings of dynasty Bagrations.

Before David IV the Builder has come on a throne in 1089, Georgia was ruled by his father George II Bagrationi, at this time in Georgia there was a heavy political situation. After invasion of Turks-Seldjuks in 1068, imperial authority of the Georgian king extended only on western, southern and on a part of east Georgia. Strategic Georgian cities and fortresses in east Georgia, such as Tbilisi, Samshvilde and Rustavi occupied by Seljuks, in Georgian regions Kakheti and Hereti ruled by local separated Georgian feudal lords. George II Bagrationi defeated army of Seljuks sultan Malik Shah in the battle of Phartskhisi in 1072, but it did not suffice for full win above the pulling enemy of Georgia, except for it the Georgian king should win internal rebellious feudal lords, strengthen the central imperial authority, develop a national economy and carry out associations of all Caucasus under the Georgian crown and then direct the armies to other countries for expansion of the Georgian empire.

Hey there.
I just joined this forum and noticed that you guys are looking for researchers.
I can help out with the Scandinavian history, I took medieval history at university college in Kristiansand, Norway and got fascinated by that era.
So if you need any help there I'll gladly assist you guys, seeing that this project here looks really fascinating and I'm a big fan of M2:TW.

I got alot of magazines and books about Scandinavia ( Norway and Denmark primarily) that deals with the 8th to present day.

I'm curious on why Sweden has never been included as a faction, seeing that there was a lot of tension between Denmark and Sweden.
