V1650! Version 1.5 released!

[General Brewster]

Lady's and Gents,

I present V a mod about the Dutch east India company (Verenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie, VOC) the mod will begin in 1650 just 4 years before the first Dutch-Anglo war and hight of the 7 United Provinces.



It translate "For Dutch Glory!"

V1650 in Total Warcast!

Information

The mod is set shortly after the Thirty Years War in 1650. The new nation of the Netherlands is a mere two years old after gaining independence in the struggle against Spain in the Eighty Years' War. The newfound republic builds a large colonial empire with the help of the Verenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie (the Dutch East India Company) in the east and the Geoctrooieerde West-Indische Compagnie (the Dutch West India Company) in the west. Both companies will stop at nothing to expand their territories with their own military and political powers.

Will you look to destroy the Republic of the Seven United Netherlands or turn it into greatness?

[S-te-Fan]

I have some 17th century art scanned from a magazine, like this (without text):

[General Brewster]

Ah nice thanks! If you could post without the text, we could probably use it!

[Mortality]

Good luck with this, and I could be a beta tester if my Empire still works.

Regards.

[General Brewster]

PM me about that

[Aragorn1963]

An Eighty Years War mod....now that would be really exiting. In combination with a Thirty Years War mod preferably.

[General Brewster]

Well always room for more idea's, the Trhirty Years War mod is a bit part of VOC as we use the same models.

[Highlander_23]

Great work! Cheers for the beta tester credit. G2g homework lol. (They never stop do they.) Just wanted to check in for a minute though. Good luck and great work!

[Highlander_23]

Oh yeah great advertisement for the mod. If I get time over this weekend or next I will make some sigs to advertise the mod, if that's ok with you.
