What do you think of this?

Apparently, there's problems unlocking unplayable factions in BI. I think BI isn't necessary for making this mod, so if this is confirmed by more we should perhaps not wait for BI.

On the other hand, BI seems to have better battlemap AI, M:TW loyalty and improved rebels, and fixed save-load bug.

I've heard there will be a 1.3 patch for rtw when bi is released. too bad about religion. if we can't use 21 factions, we can't use bi...

edit: or... wtf? 1.3 locks factions in rtw?? or is that only applied when bi is installed?

There are at least 12 playable factions according to this

And I think at least some of the appearing factions can be used as well.

I don't know if that is enough.

Ok the locking of factions problem has been solved according to twc forums.

Yup, I think it'll be BI then (then we might be able to make Normandy an emerging faction, but playtesting will have to determine)

I would wait until further research is done.

I have the same problem with Byzantium TW.

I think it'll just take some extra modding to work through, but that bit about Macedon is troubling..

What's the troubling bit about Macedon ? ~:confused:

Macedon isn't playable in RTW version 1.3. Attempting to use Macedon crashes the game.

Because they can sell you a new mod to unlock. ~;)

I say , Macedon for 2.5 $ , Rome for 5 $ and the "Iberians" for quarter

Not good... But it won't affect mods made for the BI campaign, I guess?

well if you can't unlock factions in rtw you probably can't unlock in bi, meaning we get how many unplayable factions? 5?

Wemay play with all BI factions. (or rather, actually I can't play with any faction, as I don't know how to make our map compatible with BI ~D )
