The campaign could be that some human-looking races planet is invaded by aliens but the different nations have conflicts too and fight with eachother as well as the aliens etc. etc. And siege equipment or elephants can be changed too sci-fi combat machines, think it would be cool if someone actually could mod it like that, do not even know if its possible and if it was it would take alot of work i think. Well it is atleast very original and i think it would be fun to play
Hmmm.

So, in the human campaign, you be one of the factions of humans, and you fight all the other tribes for a while, then, mid-late in the campaign, the Aliens come in and decide to invade, just like the Mingols in MTW, except there is no exact date, and they're all futuristic with laser swords and guns and the like. So you, as a human faction, have to unite the other factions under your banner have to destroy your rival humans to become a power to fight the aliens, as they will be powerful, and the humans will need a united force to stop them. You can also just suck throughout the entire game and have a rival human faction rise to power.

As the aliens, you arrive at some date (say, 2331 AD) and all the human factions are equal (unless it's possible to have the factions with random strengths, so the so-and-so human faction has become the largest and most powerful) and you have a couple of advanced little armys to keep you alive. You have little income (you just arrived at an entirely new world, what do you expect?) and you have to fight to eventually create a peaceful co-existance with the humans conquer the entire human race.

How close am I?
