I've played this mod now for some days and have some ideas for better gameplay.
1. Moral:
First of all, the opponents I've fought with don't seem to build elite units.
Even on VH/VH it was to easy to withdraw entire armies. Either you could boost
the moral of for example sergeants to create something like a backbone for AI armies,
or just a general high moral to make them fight and not just run.
Another idea would be, to give the AI generals more command stars like I've seen
in other mods. I think you know what I mean.
2. Landbridges:
As you know, the AI needs landbridges. Lucrative island holdings like sardinia are
completely ignored by the AI. I've never seen a mod that has include landbridges to
all islands, so it might be impossible.
The most important one, is a link to england. To keep the balance between the
regnum francorum and the normans, you could give the normandy to the independent
forces, to represent the decreasing influence of the normans to their continental
holdings (like you did to the influence of the HRE). This would make england still
hard to conquer but no longer a totally save place.
3. Religons:
I like the way chivalry represents religions, with undestroyable buildings etc..
But the only thing that is actually unrealistic about it, is the impossibility to
get civil order, even in villages with 400 inhabitants. In fact, the churches were
mostly altered to a mosque (like the hagia sofia) and contrariwise the mosques
to churches.
As an example, I had conquered cordoba with a christian faction. Than I had to
convert it, because the surrounding regions forced christianity. It worked fine
with the martial law, until I upgrade it to a huge city. Than the huge city building
changed the "official" religion back to islam and there was no way to get order.
Even with the next martial buildings it was impossible to change religion again.
Thats why I'd like to have at least a building to make this (5 % conversion should
change the official religion), or to have the possibility to build faction specific
religious buildings in every region.
::::::::
I'm not a modder and can only give you some gameplay issues. The present version
of the mod is already great! I hope this may give you some new ideas for the
next version.
