Impressive. That really is spectacular.
Where can I download this mod?
Is that a part of a MTW2-screenshot?
Is this a riddle? :dizzy2:
Nope, it is his version on how he think the MTW2 map will look like.Quote:

If this is really going to be for a M2TW or a edieval mod you need to change those names to Greek forms/versions and Istanbul needs to be Constantinople.Quote:

MY RECOMMENDATİONS MAPS...
THE END...
Seems more pragmatic than historically accurate. But you could replace connachta with leath coinn and laigin with leath mogha, hence maintaining the convenience of two provinces and throwing in some historical accuracy as well.Quote:

My basic. map historic-real borders.
all maps:
only important -- suitable ( for great map suitable ) -- large -- provinces and cityes.
and "countryes populations" balances "provinsces number"
A.D. 1200 staticks.
....................................
Riadach:
in ireland.
connachta = your name recommendation.?
..................................................
Lusted:
mercia capita l= nottingham ..?
that map... nottingham in anglia.
mercia history real capital = leichester
...................................................
Vladimir:
wessex more great provinces.
in mtw-1 that place wessex.
......................................................
total 208 provinces.
"countryes populations" balances "provinsec number"
and territorial greatness and strategic location.
A.D. 1346 populations:
germany and austria = 19 provinces ..... but ( friesia- lorreine- brabant- swiss- bohemia exluded = 15 )
only germany and austria populations: 14.000.000
france = 14 provinces ..... but ( including corsica- lorreine- burgonia- provence )
all france populations: 15.000.000
italy = 9 provinces ........ but ( corsica and malta exluded )
populations: 10.000.000
hungary = 5 provinces ( including croatia )
populations: 5.000.000
............................................
more good adjusment for: I think income balance.
well
leath cuinn- would equal connacht/ ulster so you could place the capital there at tuaim capital of the kingdom of connacht which had dominance in the 12th century or tara which was the tradtional capital of all of ireland, and of the powers at the start of th 11th century.
leath mogha i would place a political capital at caiseal but as regards trading dubh linn would be more important.
riadach:
ireland ...?
ok.?
Well, you never know, maybe in MTW2 they will introduce a new campaign map style... There could be more settlements, or castles, or 2 settlements in a province... unfortunately we just don't know yet...

like the altered map. except can you bring the black line down closer to dublin, it doesn't need to go up like that. It should just level off
and could you replace laigin with leath mogha?
Turku should be the capital of Finland at this point instead of Helsinki, which was founded in 1550.
ok.
I correction.
but in ireland: anyway leath cuinn % 55 - 60 earth
leath mogha % 40 - 45 earth ...
so good border.
Actually, he's a turk.
Didn't you see that all provinces were in Turkish? Istanbul.... :laugh4:
Plus lots of errors.
By the way, what's Perecen in Moldavia? Ask any romanian on this forum, no one ever heard of Perecen.
And, you even have a Turkish mistake. For Moldavia, it's Karabogdan, not only Bogdan. :no:
I for obstinacy turkish names.
today (2006) yet western maps write constantinopol.
I write for obstinacy all turkish names.
............................................................
pereçen:
peçenek (patzinaks) castle. 11. and 12. centurys peçenek castle.
after kuman (cuman) castle. in boğdan.
yet existing historic maps.
..........................................................
boğdan or karaboğdan:
just both.
kara + boğdan .....
kara = black .... but
black = this place meaning: bottom, under, low.
.............................................................
you want bizantium total war for to benefit my map recomendations?
Moldavia was half Cuman... Half no man's land.
Wallachia was Pecheneg, but only for a short time.
one mistake with the leath mogha map. its missing out on the clare peninsula. on the west just above the border that peninsula there should be in leath mogha, should compensate for the 50-50 effect. borderline is basically a straight line across along the old slige riada
I foundation borders real historic borders.
not province borders.
east and south ireland 10. century norway invasion (dublin norsks)
and 12. - 13. - 14. century east ireland english invasion.
I so to adjust.
Bozkirsovalyeski,that is some nice additions...but i think they have developed most of the map already.They wont even add Bosna and it was first european country to use gunpowder...that is how they have helped Dubrovnik (city state) against Venetianz.
If they put every province on that people want there would be far far too many. For a start, there wouldnt be enough physical room to fit your units on the map! I honestly think the number they have at the moment in MTW is spot on, not too many, not too few. A few more factions, like 5 or so, would be good, but thats about it

Meh, Portugal won't and shouldn't have just one province. They had 1 million population in the country, enough to match the size of Poland's population. Plus, how could one province like that colonize a good part of the african coast, another good part of the indian coast (For 1 million pop), some islands in Modern Indonesia and the totality of the brazilian coast? Meh, they should have at least three provinces.
The conquests of Portugal of America and Africa?Quote:

Ah, you've been using Colin McEvedy's book, "The New Penguin Atlas of Medieval History."
Ehh as far as I know Medival History of Balkans if you vant to be correct, Bosnia shouldn't exit there out to the sea. A province named Zeta should be where curently Montenegro is.
While this thread started out humorously, it's become tragic now that we know we are to expect about 10% of the provinces shown here.

is there going to be a higher density of provinces per given area than the original M:TW?
ie, France will have six subdivisions in M2:TW rather than the five subdivisions found in M:TW.
I am sure there will be in-depth mods, although I rather suspect they might be more geographically focussed - creating a quality mod with 9x as many provinces is a lot of work.Quote:

I'm ok with just sieging London, Nottingham & York without having to also get through Oxford, Norwich, Leicester, Bristol, Lincoln, Lancaster, ... (almost ad infinitem). If you did want the latter, a mod focussing just on England - e.g. the War of the Roses or Simon de Montforts rebellion etc might be most suitable.
Bozkirsovalyeski nice maps!

I would be careful there with accusations like that. The RTR7 campaign map design dates back to end of 2005 to beginning of 2006, predating your ideas here by a year or so. The only thief would be yourself, but RTR does not take such a shallow approach to the TW modding community, neither does the Total War Center Forums.Quote:

An old favorite wargame of mine, Imperium Romanum II (and its predecessor, Imperium Romanum), designed by a company named West End Games, dates back to 1979 for Imperium Romanum, and to 1985 for Imperium Romanum II. Both the 1st and 2nd edition of this game were designed by Albert A. Nofi.
Back when RTR was deciding on a new campaign map for RTR7, and the idea of using a tilted-axis approach to the campaign map was being discussed, I pointed out it would be a great idea, which was used by one of my favorite wargames, long before most people designing RTR, or most RTW mods for that matter, were even born, let alone out of elementary school.
Here a screenshot of the Imperium Romanum map...

Here is a screenshot of the Imperium Romanum II map...
http://images.boardgamegeek.com/images/pic10924.jpg
This was an awesome wargame in its time, covering the period of Romans with 35 scenarios dealing with everything from the Roman Civil Wars to Rome's many wars against various other foreign nations. Back when I played this wargame, computer games were still confined to very simple affairs or were located on university mainframes that I had used during my school years.
I played the game in a wargame club, where we used either the simple abstract tactical combat system of the game for battles, or another tactical-oriented wargame or a miniatures wargame to fight out our battles, importing the results back to the strategic scale of Imperium Romanum II.
Here are a few other photos of the game. This is the game's box cover...

Here is a photo of the game being enjoyed by wargaming enthusiasts like myself...

So, in the end, this map concept is fairly old, nearly as old as myself. :laugh4: The new campaign map being developed for RTR7 is not yours or in anyway related to any files, materials, or ideas of yours. The RTR7 campaign map was created by the excellent work of a fellow modder, and RTR7 development team member, named Muizer.
So, cool down and be glad the many RTW modding community members are not crying foul to your false accusations, as warranted as their response may be.
This thread is a severe victim of necromancy. :dizzy2:
