Spartes Mores

[Phalanx300]

Spartes Mores

First of all, this is not a yet existing mod, this is a call for modders to give this mod live. If you’re interested in helping the mod it will be very much appreciated.

The Mod will take place on 546BC, when Sparta and Argos fought for the dominant position in the Peloponnese and when Persia subdued Lydia.

This mod will feature all Spartan Moras, the ‘regiments’ of Sparta:







You can see it very much as the individual Legion units of Roma Surrectum.

The Mod platform shall be: Rome Total War. The Hoplite Phalanx shall be portrayed using the 0.2 density of the units. Putting the units in a very dense formation.

The map will focus on primarily on Greece but will also focus on several Greek colonies, such as Asia Minor and Magna Greacia and Sicily. This isn’t the final version but it will be concentrated around this:



These factions aren’t final; more will be added after the finalising of the map:

Certain Factions:
Sparta
Argos
Athens
Thebes
Corinth
Macedon
Thessaly
Persia

Possible Factions:
Elis
Kydonia
Taras
Illyrians
Tracians
Epeiros
Lokris
Carthage
Etruscans
Syracuse
Ionian Cities
Rhodos
Cretan Cities
Regium
Croton

Units (subject to change):

There might be a reform in the game which will add latter units for some factions.

Sparta:
Spartan Hoplites(made up of all the different Mora units)
Spartan Hippeis Hoplites
Skiritai
Periokoi Hoplites
Helot Skirmishers
Released Helot Hoplites
Tegean Hoplites



So if your interested in helping out send me a PM. Include in it what you wish to be modding. Currently all spots are open so feel free to join in.

you may already want to take a look at my mod

The mod focuses on Greece during the same time period and will also contain a min campaign which will focus entirely on the PeloponnesianWars.

yep its ideal that you guys should work together to have a higher chance of success

Didn't see that yet.:hmmm: Kindoff foolish that I made this tread then.

I'd like to do that, I don't know how Squaddie feels about that. As a modder I'm very bad. I could act best as someone who gives information about Sparta, and to bring in some ideas(on units and things like that).

And it would be extremely great if Mora units could be included in his mod, though I'm not sure how he thinks about it.:hmmm:


Also, I don't think alot of modders will be interested in Sparta's Mora's, since it will take quite a few to take this in the air. Maybe cooperation with another mod might be best. (Though if some modders do reply then maybe this might be better as a independant mod mostly focused on Sparta)

[Antiochos VII Sidetes]

Excellent idea. I would most definitely play this.

[Spartan 666]

your idea is very good, Phalanx.

the best thing is that you contact either Squaddie for his Rise of Hellas mod, or the Hegemonia City States team, or even both to work together. I think that the cooperation will make awesome results, besides giving all of you more chances of accomplishing your goal!

[Phalanx300]

If I could mod I would have already been working hard on it but I simply can't, I hope that perhaps in the future I can and have the tools to do so.

Just to be sure I'll keep updated ideas here to perhaps use in the future.

I decided to shrink the map down bigtime, meaning alot of factions wont be here:



This means its now going to be mainly on the war between Sparta and Argos, I was already working on the provinces, which aren't final:



I gave each Spartan mora its own territory and I try to keep things in the same scale for the rest of the map. I also decided to make Tegea an independent faction, I like maximising the slots and in a smaller map that means more (lesser)factions.

Also I'll say it again this mod isn't alive . If people want to help to make it a real mod any help is appreciated.

Also I like things Historical in the style of Europa Barbarorum so I'll try to strave for that if I ever get to work on it. (Though if its all up to me its most likely either not going to be here or going to be on a later engine)
