Medieval Kingdoms Total War: General Overview (WIP)

[cloud700]

- The voices of characters on the battlefield and the campaign cannot be changed, as of now.
- The Ottomans will be an emerging faction. As the Seljuks were "replaced" by the ottomans, gameplay wise it would be the easiest to have them be able recruit Ottoman units. If we decide to keep the seljuk line, the high era units would still wear armour characteristic of the ottomans and the of time and area in which they were operational. Whether we call these high - late era Seljuk units ottomans, or seljuks wearing typical "ottoman armor" is to be decided.
- Some buildings on the battlemap will be changed / added at some point, though I cannot promise you that they will be done for the first version.

Thank you for reply so there is hope for character speeches eventually. Hopefully you will include the mighty Janasiries units playable in your mod

I want to ask few questions about the mod.
1) Does it have sense to make vassal/Tributary states? i mean does it have any advantages? Do they actually pay? Can i hire their units?

2) Capturing Resources increases trade, but does it have any other advantage to all provinces and regions of the faction?

50. Kingdom of Makuria

I think this is a fair representation of everyone. Most areas get at least two factions. Also I should note that some of unplayable vassals will have their units as part of their master's roster in custom battle. Like the Earldom units will be playable by England or Bavaria by HRE. I hope you guys like our selection.

This should be put in a separate stickied thread

[jan_boruta]

I'll paste it to the campaign map thread once I procure a map showing playable factions. Also I think I convinced Warman to add some pretty important German duchies to the mix (Bavaria, Austria, Saxony; they kind of exist today as big and stable states, so it would be neat to be able to play as their old incarnations, that were already pretty darn important in the empire). That makes it a nice 55 factions.

Could be an ugly 56 if the Principality of Wallachia was made playable at some point, provided a roster for them could be cobbled together. Just a thought, since I am updating the maps and Wallachia will be there from the start as Bulgarian vassal.

When is it going to be released?

Sorry, but 5 consecutive posts without "the" question... that was too much for me.

[tmina32]

Please consider adding Croatia at some point as well, by this logic it could get added since it exists today

1190

What is the point of this post, exactly?

[SerbianWOLF]

Is it possible to create Crusade and Jihad ?

[Olligarchy]

What is the point of this post, exactly?

As has been pointed out in several threads, Croatia at the time of the mod is not independent, and representing them as such would be historically inaccurate. Croatia fell under Personal Union in 1190 and had no independent rule.

[SerbianWOLF]

Right. But Croatia will exist in this mod as a vassal of Hungary.

[Agiond]

Emergent faction perhaps?

[jan_boruta]

Nevertheless, it will be a vassal of Hungary with one region. It won't reach to the Adriatic sea because the Dalmatian region will have the settlement of Zadar - which was in rather firm Venetian grasp after the Fourth Crusade. It most likely will be a Croatian "core" province though, so it will be possible to revive Croatia there, should it be eliminated.

[tmina32]

There are a lot of vassal, "sub-factions" in this mod, which is perfect in this situation.

And as a lot of these factions will be playable, I don't see a single reason for discouraging the devs from making Croatia playable. So please don't.
As an european kingdom with 1 actual and 2 core provinces, I think it ticks all the boxes.

Of course it's up to the devs in the end, as the scale of the mod and the time it requires is large enough already.

tmina32: You are Serbian my buddy, and yeah you have truth, minimum 15 factions in this mod were political depend on the other fatcion, but its ok, it will be very nice and sexy, I hope :*
