Siam: Total War needs modders and researchers

[Pazu the Kitsune]

Well i posted a previous ad here a while back and didnt get any responses, so here goes:




Siam: Total War

• Spans from 1700-1880, over 50 years longer than vanilla Empire TW. Because of this, there are 3 campaigns instead of just two (1700-1880: Grand; 1782-1880: Long; 1851-1880: Short)
• The map stretches from Far East India to The Phillipines, as far north as Southern China (Xiamen) and as far south as the Island of Java
• It will include such factions as the Qing Chinese, the Siamese Chakri Dynasty, the Vietnamese Nguyen Dynasty, the Sulu-Mindanao Sultanate of the Phillipines, the Burmese Konbaung Dynasty, and more
• It will have famous generals such as Quang Trung, Gia Long, Taksin, and Rama IV
• It will cover famous events such as The Opium Wars, the Tay Son Revolution, the French Invasion of Vietnam and the British Invasion of Burma
• It will have new pre-battle deployable defenses such as the Punji Trap
• It will have a new River Battle system involving Sampans
• It will contain new units and technology such as Elephant-Mounted Cannons, Jingal Guns, Rocketeers and Tigermen

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

At the moment we need two things above all else:
1) Modders (the biggest challenge will be the terrain, battlemap buildings, unit modelling and programming in the river battle system)
2) Researchers (we are set for this except we need knowledge for a few critical factions: the Champa, the Burmese factions, the Khmer Empire, the Laotian factions and the Indonesian/Malaysian factions)

Heres the reason for the unusual campaign start dates:

Grand Campaign: 1700-1880 (starts at the same time as Empire TW(rather obvious ))
Long Campaign: 1782-1880 (starts at the beginning of the Chakri Dynasty)
Short Campaign: 1851-1880 (starts at the ascension of Rama IV and beginning of the creation of the European-model Siamese armies)
(1880 = roughly the year last vietnamese province was subdued by the french)
