    Installation
    Requirements:

    1. [*]Medieval 2 Total War + Kingdoms + Patch 1.5 - all installed outside Program Files directory (for the sake of your peace and quiet)
    2. Download ~3.5 GB of free HD space for BC 2.4 zip file. You need 4 GB free space.
    3. Installation path of BC 2.4 should be "M2TW/mods/Broken_Crescent_kingdoms2.4" (no more, no less)! Zip file adds "/Broken_Crescent_kingdoms2.4" to the path chosen by you, so watch out to not to set "/mods/Broken_Crescent_kingdoms2.4/broken_crescent_kingdoms2.4"!

    2.4 installation will not affect any other mods and do not need BC 2.3 to work. 2.4.2 is a "stand alone" version.

    Install steps:

    1. Download the .Zip -> Here
    2. Unzip it into your M2TW/mods folder in order to have (MTW2/mods/Broken_Crescent_kingdoms2.4/data)
    3. Go into MTW2/mods/Broken_Crescent_kingdoms2.4 and launch the bc_launch.bat file

    Well, it seems clear that you can't. Howether there is an option to play any "unplayable" faction in m2tw series:
    1. Get to mods\Broken_Crescent_kingdoms2.4\data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign
    2. You will need descr_strat.txt , open it up

    3. Move one of the factions from playable list to the list of unplayble (m2tw supports limited number of playble factions)
    4. Move cumans (stays for bulgars) from unplayble to a playble list
    5. Save
    6. Profit

    For a last period of time only Byzantinium were carrying on the mod development, so it is too much to ask for him. Main changes are already listed in the head of topic,
    i can give everyone more specific details in a week or two if someone needs them

    Just installed, thanks for a great Xmas present!

    Have started with my favourite faction, KoJ, interesting to see Antioch is now part of the KoJ proper. New look for cities and castles is beautiful

    I just started a campaign with Makuria and despite the UI and the event pictures beeing new the units are still from 2.3. Is that a bug or intentional?

    What is the best way to download this? Is the Megaupload server safe to download? I've been trying to download it normally, but it is taking forever (and I have a good internet connection).

    Also do I still need BC 2.3? Or is BC 2.4 a fresh and complete install?

    @ LinusLinothorax.

    Makurian units are the same than before. But their gameplay have been modified: priests, specific events, new UI, new map.

    @ The Turk

    BC 2.4 us a fresh and complete install. It doesn't need 2.3.

    congratulations, ByzantineBoy you really proved yourself, although I didn't download it yet but I know you made an amazing job. I am glad to see my name in the list I have been a BC fan for almost 10 years and I never lost my passion to it, BC is a well researched mod me myself although I studied history and archaeology I am still learning a lot of things from Broken crescent.

    when you play BC you can fight the crusaders if you play the Ayyubids, or crush the armies of Saladin and expand the Kingdom of Jerusalem, you can lead the army of byzantium and destroy the Turkish Sultanate and reconquer Anatolia and upper Syria, you can revive the Abbasid caliphate and Establish full control over the former provinces. you can do a lot of things, all the what if scenario you can find it in broken crescent .

    Thanks everyone for keeping the project a live and best regards and merry Christmas to my christian fellow.

    P.S BC release anouncement should be on the TWC home page to attract more followers
