Hello Dimeolas,

There's indeed tons that can be done with that era/location. Do you mean to try making a new campaignmap for STW?

As I have stopped playing RTW I am collecting resources for a new STW. And have atrated reading the resources here as I know nothing about modding. I will define what I want to do and see if its possible and with which engine to do it...MTW or RTW. I am also open to using a different game engine.
Imagine instead of just marchinf into a province and having one battle or seigeing the one castle....having 3-6 provinces to maneuver and fight thru ....do you march thru the woods? Or down the one main road guarded by a line of forts? Playing a monastic order....do you come join a war? Or do you sit in your fortified monastery building your strength. Lets just say its in the discovery stage and learning stage.
Would also like to introduce, even if just for eye candy some religion as it was a big part of society.
Thx,
D

The RTW engine has those movepoints for armies, a great feature not present in STW or MTW. MTW has the drawback of fixed yearturns (too long for one country and not neat anyway).

STW is less modable than either MTW or RTW.

RTW may not have all mod bells VI had (really not sure, but I can't find some things). RTW has 6 month turns and movepoints and can be modded and is being worked on(patches, guides, tools). Using RTW would be a good choice, I think joining the Sengoku Jidai project is worth to consider?

Different engines. I don't know which can be used at the moment.

It seems then that I wont be able to do what I had wanted. Yes am watching the Sengoku to see what it has. May consider the alternate project....Hyborian Total War.....set in Conan`s world and based on the pbm game by RSI in Arizona.
Thx,

Have you made up your mind? There is also room for creative people like you.

Thx DJ....am eagerly awaiting your mod. Everything goes on the back burner `til New Years because of work. I am sorely needing a good STW mod tho. What little time I have will probably go into learning to model architecture in Max. I`ll check the appropriate forum to see if theres an ETA on the mod.
And thanks for the hard work bro.
Merry Christmas,
