Caledonia Total War mod

[dclare4]

Yes I have it and darn it's bloody good. I'm reworking the map like crazy now actually. Working on an (unannounced) Lace-Wars period mod though right now the stupid 200 province limit has me reworking some-more (I had such a nice province set up for the British isles). Thinking of covering the period 1730-1770 with the 'roman factions' being replaced by HRE, Austria/Bohemia, Hannover and Bavaria with their arch-enemies including Prussia and France w/c overwrite Macedonia and Carthage respectively. Of course the Jacobites are there - they replace the Briton faction (the light blue stag is just too nice to forego) but they start out like the Julii in the prologue - landless in Latium but should have military access to France, Piedmont and the Independent States. Looking good so far.

Units are also ridiculously easy to reskin now - no more slaving over animation sprites like Walt Disney in the 1930s. Have a British redcoat that's just waiting for his hat to be turned into a tricorne and his bow into a musket.

Cheers,

Well realistically speaking I think a mod for MTW would require a 3D modeller with the skill of Duke John or one of the Lordz and I don't know if we'll be able to get that in the near future. There are several things that I prefer in MTW VI (religion, titles and offices, set names for captains, jihad/crusade) w/c aren't in RTW so I'm still hoping that we can still attract a skilled modeller sometime in the future. In the meantime maybe if we can raise the interest of people in the period more will want to work on this.

i hope you find that modeller, but sadly my 3D skillz are limited to UnrealED.

I certainly hope so too... in the meantime none of us are getting any younger and the new game IS relatively easy-IER to mod (at least basic skin/map)... so...

Who knows we might get that skilled modder any day :)

cheers,
