Hey guys, I wanted to post a league I was hoping to organize for Rome II: Total War, and hopefully have it sponsored alongside Rhodes Hoplites clan.
Rome II will have a 4 player co-op campaign, so I've been thinking of an idea to allow players to have larger scale campaign with many people involved, opposed to only 4 and the AI. The details need to be worked out, but I'm confident we can create something very fun and strategic together.
How I hope for this to work, is each faction fights to conquer territories and eventually make their faction dominant over the world. The faction that controls the most territory by the end of the campaign wins. When you conquer a territory, some team members will need to defend it, while others will need to go on the offensive to claim more territory - your team will need to decide who who fight in siege combat, while others fight in open field battles.
At the start of the campaign, teams will have a certain amount of gold to create their beginning army; perhaps capturing territory can earn you more gold and manpower, allowing you to train new troops or upgrade your existing ones. The details still need to be worked out. We can use the game's world map as our campaign map, and each territory will be represented and played out on the custom MP maps available to us. To keep track of the campaign, the territories will be labeled.
An advantage to a custom campaign league like this, we can create new factions that currently aren't in the game yet. At first we can do this by using the custom units available. For example; let's say there's Iberian mercenary units ingame, we can use them for the Iberian team. If mods start to make new factions and units, we can start to use them as well in the future.
Teams to register for:
Rome:
Carthage:
Ptolemaics:
Macedon:
Sparta League:
Athenian League:
Epirus:
Achaean League:
Gaul:
Germania:
Britania:
Parthia:
Pontus:
Possible Factions we can expect to register with enough player support-
Iberia:
Seleucids:
Dacians:
Sarmatians:
Scythians:
Numidians:
Syrians:
Teams I'd like to create, but unsure if there's sufficient amount of units to make them viable. We've seen Iberian mercs ingame, but I'm unsure if they have enough to be competitive, but I think they likely will. If anyone feel there's any other factions they feel should be available, let me know. Once we know what units will be in-game, we can decide for sure what other teams we possibly can create. I'm hoping there will be enough units to represent factions Iberia, Dacia, Sarmatia, Numidia etc.
Please let me know if you're interested, and any positive ideas are important to help get this league up and running once the game comes out. If anyone has skills making websites, creating and editing images (custom maps, graphics etc), and if any modders would like to offer their skills to the League, that would be very awesome! Maybe we can create a website for for the clan and feature this league on the site?
