Removing America in the next DLV?
After playing DLV Europa then DLV 6.0 i noticed something definetly lacking as far as territories and (fun) playable factions in europe. Also i never ever in any M2TW campaign i've played, have i invaded america. Anyways i just wanted to throw it out there to see if anybody else agreed, and maybe i am the only one who sees the america's as useless.

New parts of the map, add something new. I wouldnt like that, in fact i'd prefer if there was more "discoveries" than just Americas. After 400 turns in Europe, i get bored as hell anyways.

Well that's kind of what Europa is for though some people are having troubles with it. That being said I wouldn't mind a new map or added regions, one thing I always loved about Stainless Steel was the map they used.

"Voters: 1. You may not vote on this poll"
but i can post ...
I would suggest removing america , add more regions to europe and another faction..
Re: Removing America in the next DLV?
I think it should stay because Europe just gets so boring after a while

Well, repman has stated multiple times that he is never going to remove the Americas. If they bother you that much, play DLV Europa
Re: Removing America in the next DLV?

And i guess this thread is pointless if repman says he will never get rid of america, for whatever reason he has.

Re: Removing America in the next DLV?
There is no way that is even possible. Picking and bulding a map is like the first thing you have to do when you build a mod. Just changing the existing map at this point would be an insane amount of work... Attempting to 'DLV' a completely new map would be impractical on every level...
Isn't this the biggest mod out there ( size wise) for MTW2 at this point? I think it's even bigger than SS.
Just hang in there for Dominion of the Sword. That looks like it's going to be incredible and ( no Europe). They are building it with that in mind from the beginning.

I aslo find americas useless, I would prefer more settlements in europe instead.

Re: Removing America in the next DLV?
It plays a part in all my Late western campaigns. England, France, Portucal, Spain, Denmark, Flanders, Norway, Irland, Scotland, HRE. I think invading the Americas got more potencial to become something better.
Thorolf was thus armed. Then Thorolf became so furious that he cast his shield on his back, and, grasping his halberd with both hands, bounded forward dealing cut and thrust on either side. Men sprang away from him both ways, but he slew many. Thus he cleared the way forward to earl Hring's standard, and then nothing could stop him. He slew the man who bore the earl's standard, and cut down the standard-pole. After that he lunged with his halberd at the earl's breast, driving it right through mail and body, so that it came out at the shoulders; and he lifted him up on the halberd over his head, and planted the butt-end in the ground. There on the weapon the earl breathed out his life in sight of all, both friends and foes. [...] 53, Egil's Saga- The pranks played on the knight Jean de Joinville, 1249, 7th crusade.I must tell you here of some amusing tricks the Comte d'Eu played on us. I had made a sort of house for myself in which my knights and I used to eat, sitting so as to get the light from the door, which, as it happened, faced the Comte d'Eu's quarters. The count, who was a very ingenious fellow, had rigged up a miniature ballistic machine with which he could throw stones into my tent. He would watch us as we were having our meal, adjust his machine to suit the length of our table, and then let fly at us, breaking our pots and glasses.

Re: Removing America in the next DLV?
I do like America since it adds a bit to the just European wars. In any case, I tend to get tired of the campaign when I am in the position of landing out there (too many settlements to manage since I am the super-nano-management type of guy)
Maybe people should try to conquer America playing an Eastern faction to have some fun and real challenge.
Looking forward to playing your new changes ...

Re: Removing America in the next DLV?
i think americas are a waste of map space and unrealistic. i'd merge dlv europe with dlv 6.0!

Re: Removing America in the next DLV?
I have stated my dislike of the americas in another thread so no need to repeat the arguments.
Good to know. Since the maximum number of regions is already reached this means we will see lesser regions in the old world, right? Not the direction I want to see but maybe it will make this continent worth being included. At the moment it has no point I think.
Nonetheless, lets hope that DLV Europa will become stable soon.

Re: Removing America in the next DLV?
Lol guys, I voted wrong in the poll. I thought it is the question from the topic, so I voted like I'd answer the topic question.
America removed? -> YES
America remain? -> NO
Oh, would you tell us what you are thinking of or is it a secret?

Leave some realistic suggestions, and he may think about it.

Re: Removing America in the next DLV?
Haha love it!
I was never a fan of the Americas but I must admit that I would rather the ability to expand in the Americas rather than further East. Plus so many mods are cutting out the americas. Having that part of the map still makes DLV even more unique.

Re: Removing America in the next DLV?
If the American continent stays in the game, it would be better to have a more accurate map and at least two factions:
- the Aztecs (as native central and south american population) and
- a tribe of Indians (as natives of the north part of the continent).
I do not mind if it stays or not. In fact it is historically correct to have the Americas in the game...
The only problem - as I can see it now - is that it is somewhat "neglected" as far as the units and the settlements are concerned.

Re: Removing America in the next DLV?
I think this is a good point. In order to justify the existence of those regions so far away repman have to spice them up. But were are those provinces and the faction slot are suppossed to come from? Maybe repman has some really good ideas. Let's hope so.
This is something I don't get. The game is about the Middle Ages, rigth? As far as I know there were only some disputed viking raids in today newfoundland during that time. What is historic about that? In Germany the voyage of columbus is the major turning point for the beginning of the modern eara. Is this different in the english world? I really don't know. Maybe it is.
I suppose the only reason Creative Assembly included the americas was to get some sort of plot twist and the end of the game. Nothing I'm particularly fond of.
