Dear SV,
I see that we're moving towards the same direction. Please be kind to read

What I have done so far is to place some 100 southeuropean, northeuropean and islamic castles in the campaign map + battle map with correct pathfinding and all. I have also managed to spread some 200 villages sacrificing the aztec forts and preplace them to the campmap and battlemap.
Now I want to place the 100 most significant monasteries (some 30 for every religion) but I seem to be run out of forts..

Wanna share your thoughts?

[SicilianVespers]

We are on the same path, I was think about adding monasteries as well.

I haven't tried this yet, but what about adding a new culture?

If it works you should be able to add another culture specific fort.

Greek/Eastern European (greek/russian) as a new group??

[SicilianVespers]

Assuming adding a culture is possible, I would probably go with another Muslim culture, so we can represent Shia vs Sunni Muslims.

[EDIT]

Maybe not, this could be accomplished by adding a new religion.

Maybe a pagan culture?


[EDIT2]

I found am adding cultures tutorial:

Well to be blatantly honest (not being rude though)..

The Byzantines, and to a lesser extent, the Russians, had culture, language and architecture (if you want to stretch the elastic, religion) that had next to no resemblence to the Southern/Northern European definitions...

[SicilianVespers]

I understand your point, but I was thinking more in the lines of adding new features. But a Byzantine/Armenian culture would also work.

For the purpose of adding fort types, it would probably just need to be defined in all the files, to make new fort slots available.

YOU'RE GOOD!
Not "you're" good as an 18 yr old says "you're good" but as Robert de Niro in Analyze that "YOU'RE GOOD"

Nevertheless, there is a difference betwenn knowing the path and walking the path Neo!
I will keep you informed

[Shadow_Imperator]

Actually screw Russia...

Byzantine/Armenian (possibly) Georgian culture would be more relevent...
I couldn't stand in MTWI how the 'Greeks' spoke 'Russian'... Bleh!
