I have some screens already but I can`t upload them but like I said lot of regions mostly controlled by several of the lesser faction/tribes (which will be non-playable, and most of those regions will be towns and villages) the playable factions will be four powerful Islamic powers: the Turkish Caliphate, the Sheikdom of the Sejuks, the Hedjaz and Egypt (to be renamed), three Christian powers: the kingdom of Jerusalem , principality of Antioch and the Italian Crusaders (which is accurate because even though they were general Christendom crusades most armies represented their home European country, for instance the Templars and Kingdom of Jerusalem were primarily English and Antioch was mostly French) and one orthodox faction Byzantium. the Crusading factions will have a City and a Fortress but just two regions, the Islamic powers will each have several cities and Fortresses but like I said the bulk of Regions will be in the control of the Lesser factions/ tribes

I`m doing the map regions now I will put several settlements (especially in lower Egypt,(and this is meant geographically history Nazi`s)eastern Syria and Arabia) which are designated as "Oasis" and won`t upgrade from village edit: meaning most of the settlements and regions in the dessert and outside the direct conflict zone will not be useful for military development or as significant economic powerhouses but are valuable to have for strategic and game conquering reasons ~

[Druvatar De Bodemloze]

I promised some screens, here they are! done about10% of all the graphics, ui work I will do ( that means everything! banners, symbols, menus, loading screens etc.) right now the map is about 130 regions (all accurate) several of these regions are designated as Oasis and they are a village (can never upgrade, just like the permanent forts on the map) but you will get a public heath bonus and upkeep bonus plus they look cool! the Nile, Euphrates and Tigress are all Navigatlbe (and unique, more than just a streak of blue) the Moslems will have many towns and castles and a few cities but the Crusading factions will have a fortress each as well as a large city I hope you like this only may` be 08% of what I am to do! Man! this sucks~ it is rejecting my screens I`ll try again later(but so far so awesome though!)

[baradona]

it seems like an awesome mood! I hope the military units will look different and more accurate.

[Druvatar De Bodemloze]

ok, we can wait on those screens was able to make a mod folder out of the original campaign itself! so my immediate changes will be to make the "turks" the "The Sultanate of Rum" add and make the Timurids the Sheikdom of the "Seljuk's" add and make the moors "the emirate of Hedjaz", enlarge the map to hold more regions and also have room for all of Arabia and More of Africa ( I may add one more Arabian faction and an African one, may be Ethiopia will have to research, offers of help are welcome!) may be also enlarge the map a little more westward and include "Hungary" and may be make a new Saharan tribe/faction, make Navigable and unique rivers basically the Nile, Euphrates and Tigris add those Oasis settlements, I`m am unsure about the "Italian Crusaders" opinions on them would be welcomed! and yes I do intend to "modify" all unit cards So basically it will be the Same as the Crusades" campaign but a longer campaign and with the features outlined thus the name:" De Sanguine Sanctorum: an enhanced crusades Campaign

[baradona]

it sounds like it's going to be a very good mood!
