Hello everybody,

Name: Roma Nova
Game Engine: Medieval 2 Total War
Timeframe: 280 B.C. - 14 A.D.
Factions: 21+ Rebels so 22
Many Units and Cities
Big Map
AS HISTORICALLY ACCURATE AS POSSIBLE!!!!!!
Named and Numbered Roman Legions similar to Roma Surrectum
(Will Post Details Below)

(Need help with modding positions im only good for ideas and research. need somebody willing to be a leader, artist, skinner, scripter etc) so far this mod is as big as this post!!!!

1. S.P.Q.R.
2. Republic of Carthage
3. Kingdom of Macedon
4. Seleucid Empire

Yes to the Attalids, Galatians yes, yes to latins and Nubia, numidia why not..

17. Greek City-States/Leagues*

Come on that's not historical! Aetolian and Achaean league sounds better

well for names like Seleucid how about

Basileion ton Seleukidon means Kingdom of Seleucids
or
Basileion Seleukidon tis Persias Seleucid kingdom of Persia well i had to flip it

[ahowl11]

here is the proposed map. should stretch from British Isles to Central Asia/Indus Valley and from Scandinavia to Nubia and include at least most of Arabia

[ahowl11]

Roman Republic Symbol?

[Pharoah]

Roman Republic Symbol?

That's is a good symbole Roma victor!

[lolIsuck]

there's something called an edit button in the down-right corner of your post so you don't have to multipost
EDIT also, good idea

[ahowl11]

thanks for being patient im still trying to get the hang of it i will for now on haha

[Pharoah]

I bet reptutiaon that this gets completed before EB 2

[ahowl11]

hahaha i know right?

[Pharoah]

or else

[lolIsuck]

you first need modders

[ahowl11]

yes sir! now i just need to find a team and get this show on the road. this mod definitely will be different. i'm looking forward to implementing detailed social, economic, government, and military features

any suggestions anybody??

[Royal_McKeogh]

sounds like EB...your gonna need a dedicated team, and lots of room on your comp for tinkering with files. Post in the recruiting thread, but first get some research. Your going to need to have some work done before more experienced modders will get involved

[ahowl11]

it is similar to EB, but it will also be similar to RTR, and RS. plus it will have its own spin. i think ive posted this in the modders classified thread, and yes i'm well aware of the time and space required to pull this off. would you like to help? you are open to help with anything, even lead it!

Are a modder?

[lolIsuck]

ow yea, I forgot it was M2TW so you can have more (30) factions

[ahowl11]

ok here is an update on roma nova.. since this is still just a wip, i've decided to slow it down. i myself need to get more modding experience in me that way in the future i can get a decent team. also i need to do more research on certain aspects of this era. however we can still work on it. we can still create a base for the map.. also now that i know that there can be 31 factions i will expand the list. I know people want sparta, and trust me i would love to have the achaean and aetolian leagues in there!!! so i will update this thread on the factions when i get the chance. also suggestions for economy, government, social, and military structures are needed!!! thanks

when it comes to naming the factions I would rather keep it The Seleucid Empire or The Seleucid Dynasty because I want this mod to have english titles. Its not native or greek tongue but its still historical just in english

New Faction List:

Factions
27. Koinon Hellenon? - Sparta, Athens, and Rhodes (would this work?)

Athens is part of MAkedon or Aetolian league right now, Sparta is conquered by Achaeans, rhodes is independent so far though later on the Romans help them in wars.

Greek City-States? - Tarentum, Croton, Locri, Syracuse, Massilia, Saguntum, Emporiae (what about this? these cities played important roles)

Tarentum, Syracuse, and well most of them are Romanum lands
