Hurray i was so worried that the mod was dead

, since i enjoyed(sp?) EB so much. but im a littlebit afraid that with so many duchies and small states as there no doubt will be in italy, that the troop variances will be small,
HRE and Bysantium will have very different units, so the normans and southern states with some muslim units, but what about the rest?

Yeah they'll be fairly similar. Can't help it really, it's one of the advantages for us actually because it's less work

In fairness, so was every faction in STW and it was incredibly enjoyable, made it a bit more about the strategy than the race to get the better elite units.

Italia Invictus imo will be alot like the Viking Invasion, a few similar factions surrounded by some unique and different factions (Wessex, Saxons etc were similar, but Viking, Picts, Scots, Irish etc were nice and varied, should be similar here too).

sounds like a good idea, i'll be looking forward to hearing more about it!

I think this actually is the best way to handle your staffing problem. If some of the implementations are inserted into the mini-mod and you show a good deal of determination and persistence people will eventually come in droves. This just may take a while to develop so at least you're taking the necessary steps to persevere. I am looking forward to this mod as well.
