The War of Souls is ended, The Dark Queen is dead! The Valiant Warrior has shed is immortality. But the rest of the gods return and vie for power in their absence.
The Dark Knights of Takhisis struggle amongst themselves for power while the noble order of Solamnic Knights plot to retake their ancient homeland. The fallen ogres, armed with a mysterious and loathsome new magic assert their proper place in the world. The minotaurs, self proclaimed master race, seek to take their birthright as rulers and enslave all of Ansalon. The elves flee their homelands, scattered but united for the first time since the Kinslayer Wars under the banner of the Puppet King. The Orders of Magic reform with the return of the moons, yet the new magic continues to thrive. The Power of the Heart rivals the power of Faith.
The Heroes of the Lance are dead, the world must find new heroes. This is the Age of Mortals.
Dragonlance: Total War- Age of Mortals is a Total Conversion mod for Medieval II: Total War currently in production. The long term goal is the creation of a deep an immersive game spanning the breadth of the continent of Ansalon, beginning 425 years after the Cataclysm.
However, the mod is planned to be released in segments, beginning with the Rise of Solamnia "provincial campaign".
Rise of Solamnia will encompass the period potrayed in Douglas Niles' "Rise of Solamnia" trilogy.
Rise of Solamnia Factions
Solamnia
Neraka
Lemish (Ankhar's Hoard)
Garnet*
* Unplayable faction
This campaign will center on the northwestern part of the mainland, including Palanthas, Caergoth, Solanthus, and Lemish.
We then plan to expand to a second provincial campaign, called "Minotaur Invasion", which will cover the period immediately following Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman's "War of Souls" trilogy, leading into Richard A. Knaak's "Minotaur Wars" trilogy, including the Night of Blood itself.
Minotaur Invasion Factions
Minotaur Empire
Silvanesti
Darkhaven
Blode
Khur
This campaign will center on eastern Ansalon including the Blood Sea isles, the Mitos Archipelagos, Silvanesti, Khur, the Desolation, and Kern.
By the time these two campaign's are complete, the full Age of Mortals campaign will go into production as the majority of important factions will be represented.

At the moment I'm looking for primarily outsourced help, one thing at a time. Anything done will be credited, of course, with specifics as to what was done. I plan to keep the core team relatively small and do the bulk of the text editing myself, though advanced coding and 3d modeling are areas where assistance will be sought, if only to ensure greater competence and save time. If you are a Dragonlance fan, or just want to help in some way, please PM me, post here, or email me at diamondback@cableone.net.
