    Default Crusader States of the Holy Land

    i really love is the crusades...

    is very ''heroic'' and in the other way so violent.


    and when i saw that there were only 2 crusader states i got really mad..

    here is my idea...add at least more 2 faction for crusader:

    -Armenian Cilicia (not a crusader faction but very close to them)
    -County of Edessa

    in the kingdoms expasion byzantium owns cilicia and principalty of antioch owns the old edessa county..

    you (if anyone is intresting of make true this mod) could replace this lands for the 2 new factions and add to the byzantium and antioch more 1/3 regions (depends of the replaced regions) of barbarian tribes...

    here is the map link:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Near_East_1135.svg


    about the units you could make new units according to the faction or add units that already exist in other crusader factions (probably a mix)

    im not a modder so i have no idea how to make this.


    sugestions for a possible modder are welcome.

    Nice idea, but in 1174 the County of Edessa had been already conquered and only Turbessel was under christian (principality of Antioch) control...instead of it it would be good to add the county of Tripoli...

    Armenia should have been in there from the start.

    i know it but im pretty sure people will like to have even if it is historicly incorrect that dont have it...


    but we can make one (maybe more) things to add county of edessa and to be at the same time historicly correct:

    -put the starting campaign date lower
    -remove some regions of the crusaders states (antioch and jerusalem)

    I want to know why the Teutonic Knights are not in this part of the game as well...

    Their were about 80 Teutonic Knights at the battle of the horns of Hattin, and Saladin killed them after the battle along side their Templar And Hospital brothers.

    So mabey they could be part of the other factions unit lists, but only the elite units who fit the time frame (Just the Knights and sword brothers,No plate armored spear-men)

    - chapter house of the teutonics
    - minor headquarters of the teutonics
    - headquarters of the teutonics

    and respective troopas and bonuses

    jerusalem represents jerusalem and tripoli and antioch represents antioch and edessa.

    i think adding more factions would cause for an even faster game...there'll be war everywhere.

    Swagger, no one is going to make this modification if you keep acting like that. It seems you have an idea in your head, and want people to build it for you according to your dictates. So people are offering their services, wondering if you want to direct them.

    But you're oblivious to it and constantly reminding people, in a readably offensive way, how you're not a modder.

    So shape up or shut up.

    I'd be interested in working on a mod....
    I think we should create more crusader states (County of Tripoli) or muslim factions (Emirate of Damascus, Aleppo)
    Armenia and Georgia would be interesting too
    But, we shouldn't do County of Edessa because it already fell back to the Muslims in 1144. To do that we would have to set back starting time and therefore change a lot in the campaign...

    Since, I already know a lot about the historical background, I could do research work and the banners ...

    What we need are experienced modders who can do the units and other game play changes that come with the mod.

    So, help is welcome...don't hesitate to contribute...

    i suggest you getting the game before asking for this. Personally i think principality of antioch and KoJ is enough, it'll just unbalance the muslim vs christian. Besides, there would be no point of having new faction with no brand new units. Like the Britainia campaign for example, tell you the truth, i didn't like it the moment i took a look at the units in the custom battle, why? Because, it's all the same except colors. Trust me, it's pointless

    +rep for me if you agree with me , i might give it right back to you

    Hi mike13....

    i understand you way of view but dont know how to make a mod this large..soo i was asking to any modder if it was possible to do it

    i also know if the crusaders states had 4 faction allied they would rush all other factions

    but i might consider to add some muslim factions .....we could ask Broken Crescent modders if they could help us



    my brother is working in England and i recieved a letter from him and the game...what a surprise
