Roman Mod Suggestion?

[medival rome]

Hey guys.

This is more of a suggestion than an actual "I am Doing this". This is a suggestion as i don't know how to mod, i have photoshop that i could skin with, i can't model or anything. but if anyone would gladly try this i ask only that you carry the burden of a noob, Me.

The Suggestion is a roman mod. After surfing through the mods i noticed a lack of Roman Empire Mods so this mod could be from 27 B.C (Reign of augustus) to 192 A.D (Death of Commodus)

There could be several Factions The romans Being the Dominant power but it could possibly be the hardest faction to play as because of it's overstretched troops and lack of money.

I could perform in several area's i'm ok at coding, i could try skinning. or even try mapping. But what im saying is if someone else can pick this up and lead this project we could gather a team and work on making a historically correct roman mod.

there is Mare Nostrum, Europa Barbarorum 2 and one another, I cant remember its name right now

THERA has some nice Roman content too.

[Zames]

There is also the italian mod "De Bello Mundi" in development

[medival rome]

But are Any of them Proper Roman Empire mods? Im thinking of trying this, even though i have lack of experience. I might try searching through the tutorials and see if i can make anything.

[Zames]

Actually all the mods we have said are more related with the Roman Republic than with the Roman Empire.
About the late Roman Empire there's Invasio Barbarorum II, even if there's only a release called "Africa Vandalorum", other IB II projects are in development

Damn. I suppose i just have to try this... Would anyone be happy to help? i cannot model. It just Cannot be done but if i try and start something Surely people will help out? 'Bout time the Empire showed up.

[medival rome]

ok i have something started, Ive downloaded Geomod or something for the map, Seeing as Rome only covered Europe im going to use the Vanilla map. Albeit i shall have to rename the Cities. Ive also downloaded a mod Base so i know where to start. Any help is ÜBER appreciated.

I suppose i shall have to start coding. (Yay...)

Edit* ive just realized america is in the map...

[Heart of Madness]

The one I'm anticipating is Invasio Barbarorum II.

Screw history, what IF the Roman Empire conquered the Americas????? Then not only would the Roman Empire be the greatest empire that Eurasia and Africa has ever see (in my opinion) but also the greatest empire America has ever seen. First Europe, next America, and after THE WORLD.

[medival rome]

Lol that would be cool, but how would the romans sail to America? Can you tell me that?

Not impossible, they had sailing ships... the better question would be why? The Romans never knew there was anything beyond the Great Ocean.

Ok quick update on the map. Im Changing all region names using geomod. I've deleted america and now im trying to figure out what to name everything, im also painting the faction positions.

Could anyone think of a good faction list?

So far i have:
Roman Empire
British Tribes
German Tribes

Im dumbstruck and can't quite think of who to put down so if anyone could help with a list? Or better yet. Help with research?

The mod starts in 14 AD.

[Derpy Hooves]

They'd sail in ships, if that didn't work then they would flllllllllllllllly over the rainbow into America and teach those native barbarians a thing or two about not being barbarians and non-romans
Here is some factions that I found out by searching 1st Century map
The map I found is from 8AD
Bosporan Kingdom
Armenia
Parthian Empire

[medival rome]

Ok thanks I couldnt leave Parthia out. But what is the bosporon kingdom xD

[Derpy Hooves]

From what it looks like it is just that, a kingdom based in the Bosporous, also known as Crimea

[medival rome]

Ah, A crimean faction. The problem with this mod is i can learn to code it to my hearts content i can make a map, make new factions and stuff. But new models is a no-no me thinks. :/

[Derpy Hooves]

Oh, don't worry it is a hellenistic faction

[medival rome]

But how am i supposed to make models i don't even know how im going to get roman models in yet. I NEED a modeller...Although no rush i still need to start the mod up properly.
