Empire TR?

[Scotticus]

So, to start off, I'd like to say that I was and still am a HUGE fan of Rome:TR. Unfortunately, it seems that TR VII is still in the works and Medieval: TR never even managed a Beta. Now that Empire is out and we can finally start tinkering, planning and (hopefully soon) modding, I wanted to throw my hat into the ring.

Because I love history and realism mods (and can offer very little else to the modding community), I'd like to put my name out there are as a "research" candidate. I've always dug history and enjoy reading and writing about it, so I think I could be useful in that respect. This could include writing better unit/building descriptions, offering advice on changes to be made to units' weaponry/abilities, suggesting region tweaks and/or more accurate naming for cities/regions, as well as passing on any photos/paintings I stumble upon to the modelers. Depending on the scope of the mod, I'd also be open to researching whole new factions (East Asian, for example).

I think the problem with a mod like this is that it just take so much time to do properly, with members dropping out and such...I'm possibly the only active defender of R:TR here. Glad to have another one onboard.

But yeah...throughout my years of looking at mods, I've noticed one rule. The leader needs to be either a scripter, a modeller or an artist for the team to work, especially at the early stages.

If you can get a group of people that will work, good on you.

Welcome to the .org. :bow:

Oh, no. That's the thing. I don't plan on leading it. I'm much too fickle to do something so time-consuming as scripting or modelling - on top of the fact that even if I wanted to do it, I don't know how to anyway. However I DO know that I could churn out enough research to keep said scripters/modellers/artists busy. My post is more looking for a team to join rather than trying to start my own. I'm assuming there are some vets looking for help around here somewhere.

There arent any mod teams out there.

The biggest commitment I've seen is a few guys offering to help me out with modelling and map stuff for my mod (Check the Hosted ETW mods section. We could always use you :laugh4:)

Can't come up with a better name for what?

Oh, for the world. Your username. Your mod. You know, life in general. :tongue:

I just meant for the mod. ~:p Unless it's made by the same people as R:TR, that is.
