Baron's Alliance possible?

[Surgeon]

So, first off - this mod is obviously every M2TW fan's dream, many thanks for taking such a project on, I'm downloading right now

One thing I was wondering though, as is probably obvious from the topic title: is it possible to add the Baron's Alliance from the Britannia campaign as a playable faction? I'm quite partial to their uniform colors and overall "premise" for their faction. Since they're essentially a carbon copy of England, there wouldn't be any problems of going past the 500 unit limit (I presume this mod is fairly close to that limit as it is, with all this new stuff).

Any chance of them being added at all?

To your first question, yes it would be possible to add the Barons Alliance into kingdoms grand campaign mod.

Secondly I think if I was to add the Barons Alliance in ahead of Wales.. I would probably recieve death threats from the welsh.

As if England doesn't have enough problems already?

Well it'll make for a very interesting English campaign if you start with about 4 or more enemies right off the bat. If it makes the struggle for England too impossible, the Baron's Alliance can always be inserted as a buffer between England and, say, Scotland or something.

The question is, are you talking about the Baron's alliance as a faction, or are you talking about the faction and the feature combined?

By saying "the feature" i mean the ability to revive a dead faction - specifically the barons alliance in this case.

I agree that the English Isles are packed with action-a-plenty right now, with Norway coming into the picture.
I do think though, that having the ability to revive a destroyed faction is very cool. This would moderate what i call the "power-house" phase, as i call it (less then 9-8 factions left, all huge).
This would also make the vassal feature a little more interesting, i think.
It will also create a more "realistic" environment at the late period.

Unfortunately, I strongly doubt that implementing this feature is possible.

Well, you sure know how to dig deep (about 4 years)

The English have enough trouble with the 3 Celtic peoples. They seem to get excommed easily and if you are playing a Celtic faction you can sometimes exploit England and one other Celtic group getting excommed so that they are much easier to destroy. The Welsh are particularly suprisingly powerful. 75 man longbow units with good morale and weapons are hard to counter if good knights are not available in large numbers. Surprisingly, each Celtic faction has particular units and mix of units that can be a nightmare for the English. I think that the Welsh just frighted the bejabbers out of everyone else with their wicked Great Red Dragon shield emblam (or is it just a red dinosaur of Grendel ilk?)

You're right about the death threats.

You could make England stronger

English campaign is easy anyways. AI England is screwed though...
