Horde:Total War
Description:
This MOD is for MTW VI and uses the Viking Map. It is a fantasy type MOD. The basic premise is a fictionalized campaign in 453 in the Roman British Colonies. The constant barbarian attacks on the West Roman Empire ended completely around circa 200 A.D. Roman Expeditions into the Germanic Provinces were sent, never to return. Even still, no barbarian tribes were found in the sorrounding areas near the border at the rhine. In 430 however, this would change as a new enemy would enter onto the scene. This "nation" was known simply as the Horde, a combination of many different tribes and villages who over time adopted the same language out of neccessity. No one knows how this group came about, but rumors from the persian lands tell of a great catastophe in the Far East that has pushed whole nations and continents to migrate to the only hospitable land left, Western Europe. As food and water become scarce, more groups add to the growing Horde, creating a force the size which has never been seen before, all in search of the basic resources to survive.
By 453 A.D, the Roman Empire had almost completely fallen. The only lands yet unconquered by the Horde is Britiania. This is where the MOD begins, with the horde only now starting the expansion in the British Isles and Hibernia (Ireland).
So this is the story so far. Of course this may still change, but it is good enough for now.
Factions:
Right now i have eleven factions, with a few more planned. These are
Romans
Horde
Brigantes
Kingdom of Munster
Kingdom of Ulster
Northeners
Irish (needs to be changed still)
Scots(will be changed to the approrate tribe/clan)
Picts (same)
Northumbrians (same)
Welsh (same)
Units and Buildings:So far I have several units planned out but not yet implemented, as well as some more that are faction specific. These i will begin work on in a little while.
This is all i have time to report at the moment, but i'll give more description of my plans, what i have accomplished so far, ect. The only thing i still don't know how to quite do right is create new portraits and animations and such, but i am trying to learn now.
If anyone would like to help out in any way that would be greatly appreciated. :beam:
