Im looking for dark age MTW2

**redindus69** · October 08, 2009, 08:44 PM

Hi guys, got alittle tired playing those purnie factions so wondering if there any mods out there that let you play customise faction like pagan? Not too overpowered but having witches and heretics to spread their belief. Military units close like saxon styles

Any suggestions?

hmm there is one about the dark ages 800-1100? Who knows. All the mods I have seen either cover certain areas of Europe and Asia during the medieval period, and thats the only one I have seen about the dark ages. Also some on the late medieval period like deus lo vult, that includes America. Mines however is based on the 17 century, so thats a different story. I may make a 1860-1880 American civil war, and Prussia mod using Empire TW later on.

Well i have done alot of moddin in the past, dunno if i done much on TW series, been awhile. Beside im using M2TW Gold Edition and those files are packed, and really big too. Look like i need alot of extra space to unpack them but it could lead some problems playing or testing them.

I helped that one dude mod his pirate for Empire Total War, it was cool. But i didnt finish it though. I think he manage to get around the problems and look like he made it. Here the link...

He made those units pretty overpowered and i made them balance and wanted to use techs to get better or unique units.

Well my mod is very simple. Same map with minor provincial changes, using campaign editor. Also new units will just be few to be gunpowder units. The modding will be mostly eliminating units, and sticking with late medieval gunpowder and artillery, as well as new units to help bring in the 18th century.

So this is close to 1900s? Someone is making that on EmpireTW something like WWI or just before it then into that era dunno forgot what it was could be 1800 or eariler til 1900's.

So you want to go back around 1700. Would be nice to make something like Civilization running from 1000AD til 1900 or later lol, it would rock. And alot of work too.

No my mod is based on the 17th century which is 1600-1675 ;D

Cool thank Vikingr

Not bad, look like brand new games there. I was talking about making at least one faction like the saxons or partial rebel to build up on their belief and spread pagan or heretic faiths. Would be kinda hard but im looking for a challange, all i want is change the course of history for their point of view (The Dark Days). Dealing with those christian factions and their knights. This shouldnt be complex and surprised no one did it except one (Redemp Mod) and prob didnt finish it or setup it up right.

Anyway looking forward to those mods

While most of the anglo-saxon kings had converted to christianity by start of VLL in 620, Mercia still had one powerful pagan king in the deck - Penda.
Also in the late campaign you will be able to chose between two pagan viking factions, you will have the great heathen army at your disposal.
