Greetings

I offer you a new medieval mod "Baltic Crusade" for BI.
It will cover time period from 1210 to 1310 and will give you an opportunity to wage wars in the lands of North Europe. Launch crusades against wild and fierce pagan lands with Crusading Order factions or you can defend pagans from Christian rule. Maybe you want to expand Polish or Russian states to the coasts of Baltic Sea and take part in prosperous sea trading with other factions (13th century marks with the establishment of the Hanseatic League - the trading organisation and it will also be depicted in mod) or expand the dominions of Holy Roman Empire with German duchies. Anyway the choise is yours.

Mod features:
20 playable factions:
Friesland, Saxony, Mecklenburg, Brandenburg, Pomerania, Greater Poland, Mazovia, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Teutonic Order, Livonian Order, Prussians, Lithuanians, Turov-Pinsk, Polotsk, Novgorod, Estonians, Tavasts.
Number 20. is still under the question. It will probably be Smolensk or another Baltic Pagan faction - Semigallians, Yatvingians or Samogitians.

Also mod will contain special feature for German factions to depict German movement to East or "Drang nach Osten".

new campaign map:
Mod has cool northern Europe's map (large gratitude to Spurius for his help on mapping and coding).
Mountains of Norway, Lands of Prussia and Samogitia

and the map that shows all lands.

as you can see the map isn't finished yet and research of regions, towns and cities is still going on (mod needs help from Russian, Polish, Scandinavian and German historians)

wilpuri, Lithy (historians)
Spurius (technical advisor)

Can be an Intresting mod. But remember that most of the "pagans" the crusaders killed and forced to be christians already were christians!
