preview
In our forum you find several sticked threads with previews.

about our project:
The mod is based on RTW+BI+1.6
It starts in 527AD when Justinian became emperor of the Roman empire.
The western countries of europe like the Franks and Goths became "dark-age-countries". In the east you see an exhausted Roman Empire and a Persian Empire. This Empire shines a last time in history before it collapsed.

our intension:
I rarely saw a mod which reflects in a historical way the Roman army of the very late 5th or 6th century. We want change that and we want offer the player a historical mod of that time.

details:
as said above - the strat-map is finished and shows an absolutely new view. perfectly made to simulate the dark age with improved new M2TW textures (better than M2)

what we need at the moment:
needed are those who want make the textures for our historical 3D city buildings (battle mode)

examples of our finished models

are you still looking for unit-makers?

**Pompeius Magnus** · September 10, 2008, 09:04 PM

I really need unit makers. Indeed. Nobody came to help us since the last post. :-(

And I need a guy with experiences concerning the descr_strat. We have to insert now the family names. Perhaps someone will help us with those items.

post it here, or write a pm - as you like.

Our mod is still looking for skinners and 2D specialists (faction symbols and icons)

**Antiochos VII Sidetes** · October 01, 2008, 07:49 PM

Pompey, could you post a progress update in your forum? It's dead there, and I don't like that. I anticipate your mod.

**Pompeius Magnus** · October 02, 2008, 04:16 AM

Honestly,
We have other problems atm.
If you can offer help from your side we can talk via pm. If not - you have to wait like all the others ;-)

best regards

**Keeper of the Keys** · October 02, 2008, 05:24 AM

why not make this for M2TW or ETW?

**Pompeius Magnus** · October 02, 2008, 06:55 AM

interesting question. The idea isn't bad.
But I see some cons. One reason is because you have to change all buildings on the battle field and the 3D city view.
And I have no guys who can make that.
With BI we can take 95% of the Vanilla stuff.

But this questions are off topic here and shoudn't be discussed here. If you have further questions write a pm or come to our Ages of Darkness Thread.

Thank you

our faction symbols are completely finished. Due to our high work-load I need somebody who can transfer those symbols to the strat-map banners (located in ...data/banners) as well as for the banners shown on battle-map (tactical view).

**Pompeius Magnus** · February 12, 2010, 01:06 PM

pushed.
we haven't a lack of texture specialists anymore. However, for just 2 guys it is still too much work left.
Everybody with knowlegde in texturing (including UV mapping) is invited to join our team.
(of course it is not bad if you have a basic level of knowledge concerning the dark ages/early middle ages - but that's NOT a must)

We are also thinking about a new project for changing the city- and village-models of the strat map, and finally we want make new stratmap generals and spies etc etc. If you have certain experiences with those items please contact me.

here's our forum with a lot of sticked previews:
