World: Total War

[Sterling]

1.Allied men of Turtle Island(Native Americans)
2.Germania
3.Aztecs
4.Mayans
5.Incas
6.Casse
7.Aedui
8.Averni
9.Peloponnesian League
10.Delian League
11.Roma
12.Iberia
13.Carthage
14.Numidia
15.United People of China
16.Chinese
17.Mongals
18.Persia
19.India and it tribes
20.The Selecid Empire
21.Rebels
This will put them on a even playing field all having the same number of units on a Fantasy Map that will give each a Opertunity to take the land and also it will have alot of geography involved but will have tactical things that help make up for technolgy like typical Apaches(unit hireable) vs Roman legionaries obiously the legions will win but the Apaches are quicker, have a better throwing weapon and have(usally) bow and arrows men that are just called Apache arrowmen that are(historically acurate) capable and if Roman archers and Apache Bowmen got down to hand to hand the Apache would elimanate the Romans in about 24 seconds and maybe lose one man. However the indian bowmen never set arrows on fire and are in smaller numbers so they may not even get to that point. That seems like pretty good explantion. One problem that I ran into was 21 faction limit but I have a couple questions should I include india aren't they all rebels because of there various tribes but(unlike the North Americans) they never united aganst one enemy.
For the record this has changed alot.

what period in time is this based on? (ie: ancient, medieval, classical, modern, etc.)
if it's medieval, there should be a couple more european factions IMO.
just curious. nice idea though!

Well since the Seleucid Empire is in I bet it's before they were vanquished ...

[Sterling]

It depends on the faction u see the roman empire were at its finest when it was using the legions. The Delian League and Peloponnesian League were at there strongest when they were in their respective league in terms of ecomony and army so that would reflect in the video games like some the units recruitable(besides naval):Spartan Hoplites,Spartan Royal Guard,Perioeci hoplites,Peltasts,Hoplites, and Helot slaves. Honestly that is what they would have used but the Delian league has a more open list: Athenian Hoplites,Hoplites,Calvary,Peltast, and Skirmisher Calvary. Chinese were best in terms of warfare when the Samerai arrived on the scene. So they would have units like Samerai,Mounted Archers,Calvary, and chinese infrantry. That is how we determine what time period for a faction.

I'll help with 2d art.

btw, the Samurai were Japanese, not Chinese.

[Sterling]

I think to represent the samarai, We will replace Chinese because if they were on a new fantasy map they would be united so instead Japan.

[removeduser_052420]

Lol. I like how the OP only used one period in his entire post.

[jakobh94]

Dude I think the idea of a map stretching from the Americas in west, Europe in North, Africa in south and Asia in the East is a great idea. However I cannot really grasp why you want to turn it to a fantasy mod when each faction was at it's prime, it messes everything up. Instead just go with ONE period and take IMPORTANT factions from that period, for example: Dark Ages, Age of Enlightment ... etc etc.

[♔Sherlock♔]

This is a fantasy mod right? Because half those factions didn't exist at the same times as each other

[Agamemnon]

I am fairly sure that it is.
@Jakobh94: Doh! Do you not understand the word "fantasy"? That is the point!

Because I hate any fantasy relying on already existing states or peoples and maps !

1.Allied men of Turtle Island(Native Americans)
7.Aedui
8.Averni

Serious, why 2 gallic folks? they weren't that important

[Agamemnon]

I would like to see Gaels instead of Averni, if you can.

[Agamemnon]

Oh, okay. I have really been waiting for a mod to do this, though.
Might I suggest that the Delian and Pelopponesian leagues be changed to Athens and Sparta, respectively? I just like the ideas of two actual nations fighting than a league fighting (mostly because leagues were often broken, but in RTW they can't be).

[Calisthenis of Dyrrachium]

15.United People of China
16.Chinese

Why do you have 2 Chinese factions?

[jakobh94]

Why do you have 2 Chinese factions?

Yeah that's weird ... He probably should have Qin, Han or Jin dynasty

[Sterling]

Ok to answer some questions:
First after hearing some comments I have decided to tweek the factions a littie.
Allied men of Turtle Island(Native Americans)
Germania
Aztecs
Mayans
Incas
Casse
Gauls
Sparta
Athens
Roma
Iberia
Carthage
Numidia
United People of China
Japan
Mongols
Persia
Mali Empire
Ethopians
The Selecid Empire
Rebels
Also this is a "FANTASY MOD" it's purpose is revise the gameplay of RTW into a map where they all have a fighting chance in taking over the world. With the current map(RTW) it doesn't reach far enough and a world map would just separate everybody and leave alot of Rebels. So maybe we can fuse a couple maps together...
Jakob that eliminates the purpose. The Purpose is to see what would happen what if a Samarui army met the Spartans. What if the Apache met the Gauls. That would be a epic battle! That is the point plus the campaign would be more playable you could choose any of these great warriors not just Asian factions,Not just European factions that is what makes this mod fun! But this also makes it alittle hard but with help we can make a great mod.

I meant taking important factions from each part of the world that actually existed at the same time. 5 From Asia, 5 from Europe, 5 from Africa and 5 from Americas, or maybe drop back on Americas and give to Asia (as they have a lot of space to fill out)

Sterling, if you need help with unit descriptions, i'd be glad to help

c'mon i don't want to give you only bad comment but why, if you make a mod featuring the whole world, why putting Sparta and Athens in it? Just combine it as the Greeks.
It think its better when you add the ptolemaic empire, right
