    Default New faction?

    So...I have a question, will there be a Romanian faction? like Wallachia or Moldovia?

    No, because of the hard-coded faction limit we can only fit major factions from our time period.

    Is it possible to get rid of the limits or at least increase the limit so you can add more factions?

    It is hard-coded so it cannot be changed I believe, but I'm a noob in modding so maybe its different .

    Yeah we can represent them, but they won't use the vanilla mechanism because it requires an extra faction slot.

    If we had more faction slots, you could expect shadow factions to properly represent transitions and stuff, before we'd add any other factions.

    It's already in the game - it's that large island to the west of England and Scotland that you can see in Map Blog 1.

    Sorry, I thought you were joking. For the reasons Copper stated, we can't justify having it as a faction in a mod of this scale, but we'll have some Irish units.

    There have only ever been 2 major players in the history of the British Isles, on a European scale anyway. England of course got defeated at the Battle of the Union of Crowns, where we brutally massacred a 300 year old dynasty and replaced it with more civilised rule under James VI's Scotland. Of course we decided to move the capital to London, as a sort of gesture of goodwill towards the iconoclastic barbarians i suppose. God knows why, though in hindsight it was a good idea given that they outnumber us 10 to 1.

    Anyway, what was i saying? We really do strive at DotS to be as nonpartisan as possible since is good for gameplay, but at the end of the day, history was not nonpartisan, and it is simply ahistorical to have Ireland who were neither a major power at the beginning nor a growing danger at any time in the medieval era. This from a certified Celtophile btw.
    A new mobile phone tower went up in a town in the USA, and the local newspaper asked a number of people what they thought of it. Some said they noticed their cellphone reception was better. Some said they noticed the tower was affecting their health.

    A local administrator was asked to comment. He nodded sagely, and said simply: "Wow. And think about how much more pronounced these effects will be once the tower is actually operational."

    Well, if possible, first we should add another factions that participate in a more active way in European scale...for example Navarre, Serbia, Bulgaria or Barcelona
    As Copper the Scot said, Ireland was not a growing power, even it was not a faction, but a bunch of lords and chieftains fighting each other, or fighting the Normans.

    I think what Sumskilz meant was more or less that we're going to add Ireland, Wales and Jersey as factions and the monster of Loch Ness as an AOR unit...

    So no Ireland in DotS, sorry.
