    Default BI Vanilla Mod

    Hello all this is my new mod that I would like to create. This project shall not be abandoned as was my last one was.... this one shall be easier I shall not do much more each time. I first decided to create this mod when I saw and thought that Germania had not enough citys I will add more citys to this under the name Vicius (tribes name) or campus (tribes name) unless the tribe has a proper capital that I or someone elce can find. e.g. Mattium for the Chatti
    also please vote on the name of this mod. as i cannot decide

    this is my first symbol that I have made for the mod but i am not sure that i will use this .... please comment on what you think about this and post ideas as you will. and also if bull3pr00f comes asking what is special about my mod... well. My mod shall be extending the experience for the BI gamer. you may say like IBFD but no nothing like that this shall have more of a vanilla feel as i will not be editing much units just settlements and factions at the moment. also the start date is undetermined im thinking about starting at 300ADish during the reign of constantine. mabey perhaps later

    Pagan Goths with Celtic Cross as symbol?
    come on, there is Gothic Cross that was their historical symbol, and BI Symbols makes more accurate sense than RTW, everybody knows it (except saxons and berbers, everyone who play IBFD knows it)

    Okay, so before I forget. The coin used will be the Solidus http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solidus_(coin), the era/year that I will begin in is 452 when Atilla is in Italy the Visgoths will be in the pyrrenes and the Vandals in north Africa. The Lombards will have a large Germanic kingdom. The Saxons and Angli and Juntes will have a hold in the Brittish Isles the Romano Brittish will be loseing power and the scoti will be attacking pictland

    and you equate Saxons with vikings? That was clearly Dane's symbol
    why not just use the Saxon Crow or Wyrm?

    duh...

    more Doh...
    St Andrew's cross for Scotti before even they call themselves Scots? Celtic Cross may be reasonable, but St Andrews cross are soo medieval...

    I'd suggest you to either read more history or play IBFD more
