I see there are some fans who are interested in AOVAF yet.

Another team, another engine, another chance.

Good news, it sounds like a very exceptional modification

Bad news, I have to set up another account on TWC to talk about it - sadly they have no public presence here

Im part of the team on WoTN, and it seems to be running along nicely.

We aim to be releasing it on 8th of August, our team leaders birthday ;).

That's very good news Arrowhead, even better I will probably have my new PC and M2:TW by then! May I request, however, that you guys come and pop over here and post up some previews and other such things now and again - I am sure that it would get plenty of Org interest in your great modification and would save me having to pop over to TWC too often. Good luck, cheers!

Sure, I hope we will be able to get some nice advice off you guys!

I'll see if some of my team can drop round too.

Here is some more info on what we are doing:

Overview:
The mod will take place from 793-1011 AD and will cover the affairs of the Viking raids on most of Europe (map cutting off right before we get to the Med sea and right before we get to Spain). This just takes the most dynamic, fun and bloodthirsty era into the brand new Total War game.

Goal:
To portray the events using totally new skins, factions, maps and units.

Hi AoVaF! Im the graphics guy in WotN. Here's alittle preview of some of the graphics i've made for the mod. It contains two faction symbols (The Danish one, and the Pictish one) and a screenshot of the main menu.

I have an account over here too :P

**Arrowhead** · 03-09-2007, 17:32

Crap ;).

I knew I had got SOMETHING wrong....

**Omanes Alexandrapolites** · 03-09-2007, 19:51

May I suggest you guys head off the the Mod's in Development forum - it's where all the greatest modifications for M2:TW have their threads. Good luck again with your mod, cheers!
