Unlikely Empires is a small scale faction replacement mod for vanilla Rome:TW.
The mod will allow you to play as one of two new factions, Hibernia and Crete. Both of these factions will begin a campaign with only their domestic island province and a low income. This mod aims to provide the challenge of forging an empire from such humble beginnings.
I am creating this mod because I would really like to play a campaign in, more or less, vanilla RTW as a small island faction. If anyone else enjoys the mod too, when it's finished, that will be a bonus.
So far, I have spent some weeks researching the histories of these "factions" and compiling notes to base them upon. This has been quite a lot of fun in itself as I have learned a great deal about the backgrounds of these islands.
I have also layed the groundwork for the mod. There's not much for me to show at the moment, but I hope to be able to update this post with more information as I progress.
Let me know if you have any comments or suggestions.
