ill probably get laughed at for this question but, here goes.
last night i had a dream that this total conversion had been released (yes i am that sad) and the technology trees (especially for the northern european factions) went right on into the middle ages, to the point where you could have teutonic knights and fighting the crusades and what not.
what are the chances of something like that happening in this mod?
None.
a bit out of the time frame isn't it?
you could always check out Chivalry total war. That's a medievel total conversion mod.
there's a MP beta for the early era out.
Need to get out more aswell; dreams about EB, and in that much detail when it hasnt even been released yet. ~D
thats exactly what i mean though , to go from classical antiquity to the middle ages.Quote:

yes maybe a new Total war game~:), but I guess they'll do a napoleon age, rennaisance or bronze age game next...
actually there is amod in developement that proposes to include the entire world as a map and go from ancient times to around the 19th century. Age of Mankind: total war. You can find it in the forge.
There are many games that do this, just not ones that have TW's strat/battle split. Empire Earth, Rise of Nations, Civilization, etc.Quote:

What they'll probably end up doing (if the mod actually gets anywhere) is sharply limiting faction diversity. So everyone gets units like, say, "Swordsman", and then "Medieval Heavy Cavalry", "Musketeer", etc.Quote:

They should stop this foolish mission; what's a true magician?! Give an exhibition how! They've put up a front, they've put up a fight- and just to show we feel no spite, they can be our acolytes: but first it's time to bow! Or it's there own grave they'll dig boys, they're playing with the big boys now! ~:cheers:
i mean with games with the complexity and depth of rome total war.Quote:

well say certain technological developments appear in the game like events, for example.Quote:
