Frankish Empire: Total War

[Clovis I]

I have no modding skills, the only thing I can do is searching all historical subjects for the mod because I want Realism, so what I propose is the following:

Frankish Empire: Total War

Mod time - 481 AD/768 AD (Merovingian Dynasty - King Clovis I)

Factions:

- Franks (capital -> Tournai : in 486 Paris)
- Burgundy (capital -> Lyon)
- Gallo-Romans or Kingdom of Syagrius(capital -> Paris)
- Visigoths (capital -> Toulouse)
- Ostrogoths (capital -> Marseille)
- Frisia (capital -> Utrecht)
- Bretons (capital -> Rennes)
- Alamanni (capital -> Strasburg)
- Thuringian Kingdom (capital -> Erfurt)
- Bavaria (Lower Franconia) (capital -> Würzburg)

- Saxons (Pagan Saxons -> came 714 -> invade part of Austrasia, gone 718 if you defeat them)
- Umayyad (Hisham's Big Muslim Army Comes 723, is gone in 732 after battle of Tours if you win, first they invated Gascony, Aquitaine)

Features:

- New campaign map, new battle maps
- New factions (rebel army's don't occupy cities), units, (buildings), .
- New traits, ancillaries (of course a time line family members)
- New Wonders
- Timeline expanding from 481 AD/768 AD
- Conquer Franci as the Franks or fight as the last Gallo-Romans or the Visigoths or the Burgondians to prevent their total invasion.
- Historical Realism
- New Historical Battles:
1. Battle of Soissons (486) Franks vs Gallo-Romans
2. Battle of Tolbiac (496) Franks vs Alamanni
3. Battle of Vouille (507) Franks vs Visigoths
4. Battle of Tours (732) Franks vs Umayyad
- Many historical events (to give you an opportunity to follow the history)
- Plus many more (yet to be decided and give your realistic ideas)

This map can be usefull but I'm looking for more and I will give most of information about the faction's regions, cities under domination of them and everything that could be usefull for this and all details we need to make realism and a enjoying gameplay.



This is the map area I would like! So You can see, few waters



I need recruitment like
- moddellers
- skinners
- researchers (like me)
- scripters (I can help to)
- mapper
- Everyone I need to make this mod for BI total war

-> So what do you think?
-> Give me your feedback&suggestions
-> Constructive criticism is really helpful
-> Who wants to join and proceed this?

Thanx

As you can See, such a map as this would come!
England, Italy, Corsica & Sardiny won't play great role!
Indepent they are, as rebel cities, but of course no real rebels!

i think this is a great idea, though i dont have any modding skills others than adding units to the game... Good luck and have fun!

I think you should at least extend the map as far south as North Africa including only the shoreline to include about 8 cities along the coast. include more of Spain and Italy and maybe even England as far north as scotland.
Since the current limit of the map will make a short game and the Franks ultimate goal would be to create the Western Roman Empire.

The map the general Idea of what im talking about. Including southern Italy and part of Epirius will also allow the inclusion of The legitament Roman Empire and thus the Frankish Empire main foe in justifying its rise to power. The Ostrogoths would also be smack dab in the middle of them.

The area include within the box is the area that I am referring to.

Well, I prefer have only Western Europe, where al happens and further than that they didn't came, I just wanna have it real, like the story tells!

But I am not making a map, I will never take time for it, only for research cause I have that talent of research on internet & history books!

I really like this Idea keep on the work if there is any body who is taking part of it?
You need a mapper, I need a mapper!
