What if? a MARVEL hero mod

[captain marvel]

Hello all. Im new to this community but I have been playing around with RTW and modding for some time. Reading your post i came up with this idea: please keep in mind that all is ypothetical, nothing of what i say has anything to do with real facts because if that was the case all im saying would be not legal. Please read and try to follow me on this.
What would you say if someone had this crazy idea to do a Marvel Comics mod? Of course this is not that case because if someone wanted to do such a mod he or she should have permission by marvel headquarters and i havent contacted Marvel yet. In case i do in the future and receive permission all goes well. If not...well what if this mod would be a non commercial and not public mod? What if it never went public and stayed a project between the members of the mod. Then it wouldnt be illegal i believe, right? Anyway, what if i ypothetically told you that the gameplay of this mod could be that for example Beyonder came to Earth and challenged the most powerful beings to one more crossover. What if the teams (factions) were:

Well what if someone told you that he can model all those units, the buildings and more. In this ypothetical situation (always) would you help him? Would you ypothetically assist with the creation of new animations, the scripting, the map (which could ypothetically be completely fictional) and the general gameplay? What if that someone made a mod for B.I. but keeping in mind that M2TW may be modable soon and matters of transferring this mod to M2TW should be taken under consideration?
What would you say to some guy ypothetically asking you about sth like that?

As a comic book fan, seeing an army of Captain Americas punching an army of Cyclopses in the face looks more like a joke mod than a serious one.

You should also have The Falcon and his bird can be his projectile :D

This forum is for mods in development - you should post in the Mod Discussion subforum.

I would recommend posting in the Mod Ideas thread here:

Welcome!

[Makanyane]

Welcome to the forum captain marvel, as Dol Guldur said this thread really belongs in Mod Discussion, so I've moved it out of the Forge.

Hopefully you'll get some constructive feedback in here. Also do have a look through some of the previous discussions on mod ideas. The issue of copyright has been raised a few times, as has the amount of time it takes to make new units for a lot of factions.

Good luck with your project

I can see a few issues with this... but honestly....nothing that couldn't be overcome. You might be better off having limited units of actual Superhero's with small numbers of powerful soldiers ( like elephant units...not many but lethal! ) and make up the bulk of the cannon fodder as 'avatar' soldiers. Dressed in the correct colours, but not actually superhero powerful.

That way, you could have a small unit of Cyclops fire-beaming a load of peasants carrying Captain America shields and banners. Gives you far more opportunity to see units being blasted about by very powerful warriors, and makes it a little easier to cope with the quantity of Superhero's.

Just a thought ... and it reduces the amount of model variations you are going to need to really flesh out the thing.

I would help to such a mod, whether you get permission from Marvel and you go public with that or you dont and you keep it to ourselves. I dont see why one shouldnt combine ones love for comics and RTW as a game.Contact me whenever you want
