Medieval Total Realism: Age of Ambition

[SoupNazi]

romania was for some centurys turkish.

YOU LIE!

We(yes i'm romanian too) undertook major battles with the turks...and just Dobrogea was actually Turkish for a while ...we paid a regular gold fee and some romanian soldiers were converted and taken into the ottoman army but we never had turkish rulers, and ...you can take my word for it..there are no turkish influences throughout romania now, just hungarian ones...in Transylvania.
Furthermore...with not even a shadow of disrespect... i believe you shouldn't be influenced by Bram Stoker's Dracula(which is the main sourse of knlowledge for foreign ppl regarding our country)...with Vlad Tepes(aka Dracula) ruling over Transylvania (LIES) and the big battle map animation with the turkish banner just stopping at it's borders...it's just another big fat LIE. I hope i didn't offend anyone with this reply..it's just how i feel about things

if 3 ppl in the whole of romania speak turkish that doesn't mean we have turkish influences...ppl DO NOT speak turkish by god...unless they are turks and came to romania on vacation...their a minority, far more gipsies(rroma) than turks i assure you,the hungarian influences i was speaking of, were actually real..if u travel to some of the old medieval cities that were under hungarian rule half of the ppl speak hungarian. And you can hardly call 2 words from our vocabulary that don't even show in dictionaries(because they're slang), an influence.
Furthermore...the whole phanariot rule and other things like the "southern Moldavia" beeing anexed by the ottoman empire..that's just later, a couple of centuries after the mod ends, not to mention that in 1066 when the game begins..none of the principates were under foreign rule...and the mod ends just BEFORE we get seriously invaded so the most important romanian battles our little moments of glory fit right in the game's time span.
Playing the romanian principates would make the game very challenging, fighting on 2 fronts with little funds...so on and so forth

i was wondering...not sure where to post this...are you going to change less realistic things which don't very much have to do with history such as the gargantuan range of crossbows?...(bows should have much larger range and rate of fire, and a little less damage and crossbows should reload really slow and deliver devastating damage but at close range and only when shot str8 forward and not ballisticly) or the heavy cavalary's puny charge bonus?...there should be like a running through sensation when attacking light infantary for example...
i can't wait to see the mod done keep up the good work

in 1066 when the game begins..none of the principates were under foreign rule

Wrong. Wallachia and Moldovia were under Bulgarian control until 1018, then Pecheneg control until 1090 at which point the Cumans held them. Transalvania was under Hungarian rule from the early 11th century.
Wallachia didnt become independant until the 13th Century, Moldovia the 14th Century and Transalvania the 16th Century. How exactly would you implement a Romanian faction from that?

so romanians will be rebels? this raises a question tho...in fact i was going to ask anyway: will rebels vary in troups depending on the region their in? for example will irish have some other special troups that can be recruited only by them, or will all the rebels be an anonimous mass of ppl just idle-ing away waiting to be destroyed?

[DukeofSerbia]

Romanians in medieval? This is serious?

Wallachia and Moldova will be rebels = Petcheneges.
