what' s more , could you tell me the background of the mod ,i mean the history etc.

Right,
1. I am from England.

2. Map will not be started fully until more research has been done.

3. Unit rosters & images will not be done until we know exactly the units we will be dealing with & can therefore balance the game more, while keeping it as realistic as possible.

4. The game is set at 375 ad, like the babarian invasion. However, the map will hopefully extend towards China & Japan & will include INdia, etc. research is still being conducted & updates will be made as more info is gathered, perused & the bits we need picked from the info.

5. History of the period is foggy in some places, but the basis in Europe will be the same as Barbarian invasion, with possibly a few minor changes. Ie, the Roman empire is beginning to wane, Barbarian forces are advancing on Rome, & the Huns have arrived in Europe after a long journey from the Mongolian region. In India, the Gupta dynasty is in control of the North, & is pushing on, In China, several dynasties are fighting for control, while Japan is finishing off Korea. We cannot get much info on Russia, but we are still searching & are putting the pieces together, & we have not had a good look at central Asia yet.

This will be a long project, but will hopefully have such a large diversity in virtually every aspect, that it will be very much worth waiting for.

Hope this will be suffice for you for the moment.

well magic , as i know in china 375 AD is Eastern Jing Dynasties with sixteen kingdoms . so if you want to create a that , i think the system of rome is not promise . what's more the jappenese still in stone age they still don't know how to make iron . in 400 AD (may be ) a faction called DAHE conquered the island . and found the first Dynasty in japan . in 375 ad , it didn't fight with Korea .what's more jappan accept more china's civilization from korea .

-Yes, China is a problem, and we are currently in discussion about what we are to do about it.

Thank you for your info on Japan, based on that, we shall probably scrap including Japan, clearly our sources for Japan were un-reliable.

The concepts in the forum may be helpful, thank you for pointing me to them.

if you got any china or jappan history question . i think i can offer some help .

i think you should choose a period , that china is conquerd by one faction . like Westen Han B.C 206─A.D 9 . at that time , in my memory , just have no more than 6 factions beside china . inculding huns and other west factions and south barbarians.
and the jappan send their first ambassador　in 57 BC, and become a feudatory of china(i don't know how to describe in english , i think it must be said china accepted a country was far from mainland china , and accepted a barbarian faction submit to him .) .and japan began to get many china's civilizations from then on . well , i think japanese was so friendly as a barbarian than now :(

Will this mod encompass both Europe AND eastern Asia? IF so, I'd suggest a later, medieval date, perhaps 1400s? This was when both sides were fairly united, etc. That Han Dynasty start doesn't sound too bad either, except for the fact that the Japanese would then be quite...uncivilised as yet. Up to the 2 Blind Morons though!
