Any other approach would be doomed to failure because I (and anyone that helped) would be biting off more than could be chewed. I'm not going to shackle myself to such a task ;)

IF I can gain permission to use a good map of Ireland, and possibly units for basic troop types, and IF someone (such as you) can make the milieu-specific models and IF I can get version 2.0 of the Fourth Age out soon then I will revisit this. As it is, I expect I shall be busy for at least 2 months. But I would like to actuallycreate a mod like this. But it must be kept tightly focused and simple - this is the key to releases and good mods, not pie-in-the-sky adding of factions and "other stuff" which only ends up being impossible to complete.
Perhaps if you waited for Kingdoms to come out, you could easily mod it into that?
It's going to have a detailed (or at least id imagine as much) map of the isles, and a lot of the troop types would already be in M2TW, so it wouldnt require huge amounts of modding, or so i'd susperct (says the guy who cant mod!)

Anyways, one mod idea which crept into my head which i thought would be quite humourous, would be similar to the game hooligans. Essentially it'd be set in modern times, with big groups of football hooligans travelling to different locations throughout europe.
Each province, instead of a town could have say, a stadium, and groups of opposing hooligans could battle it out with metal bars, planks, bottles, bricks etc.

I personally have no intention of creating such a game, mainly because i know nothing about football, and am not proficient in modding.
However, anyone that did fancy throwing a modern twist into total war is quite welcome to pick up my idea and build upon it!
