well if it's not possible there's no point in trying is there? also the map dosen't even include the places like Egypt and Syria where the Diadochi were positioned. I just can't do he Diadochi, end of story

Then what are you actually going to include in your minimod? How are you going to represent:
1) The Peloponnesian Wars
2) The Iphikratean Reforms leading into the demise of Sparta
3) The rise of Thebes
4) The rise of Macedon by political and military reforms?

pretty much ya, and If Macedonia manages to win Greece then they can go on to conquer Asia Minor. Also ROme and Carthage are included along with Scythia and Dacia, so there's no shortage of big conflict

Coal you know what you should do? Make the whole map greece, the aegean, and the west coast of turkey. plus all the islands and what not. and call it Hellas Totalwar (or something better than that cause that sounds like some kind of hezbolla thing and thats bad news bears hahaha). But just make it on the Pelopenesian wars. And at the begining you can add the persian invaisions with scripted army spawns or something like that. this mod could climax with the pelopenesian wars and then finish off with the rise of makedon. All your factions would be various city states that played a central military role in greece at the time. The pelopenesian wars could be started by taking advantage of the unbreakable alliance thing. Sparta and Athens could take up 2 of the roman factions and when the right date/conditions (eg. persia defeated) you could be able to start the pelopenesian wars.
I don't know what it involves, and it would probably be the biggest endeavour, but this would require a totally new campaign map and what not. (obviously)

Actually, CP, I though of that too when I saw the thread. You have a fine idea there. True, the mod will be limited, but IMHO< with only one person working on the mod, it needs to limit its ambition. Not to mention, I would love such a tight-scope mod for a change. However, is it not true a mod like this already exists? With just Greece?

Maybe not, but anyway, I also think Italia needs to be added to CP's idea. Megale Hellas it will be, plus with the Roman Kingdom/Very Early republic. And Etruscans. An important Greek colony. With that, one may also add Crimean Peninsula as well.

Fear... the chicken...

You cannot have a Greek mod without Syracuse.

not on greece but on the isles. Arthurian Total War. I played it for a bit, then i found this and nearly died. Thoguh i really enjoyed playing as my ancestor's clan. But i kept getting clobbered.
