no, i can't be expected to do the research, as in the research field, I allready got a lot of headache in stitching the line of (mostly finished) nusantara TW research, and I know research is actually the most difficult things in a modding project, after modelling...

But if you present what should I rename, and what should I do with the map and script, that would be ok...

Thanks, that would be of great help... Once i get a team, i will tell which settlements need to be renamed... That's practically everything i would need atm...

so, thanks again :)...

Any other help from you guys? :D

I would like to help, it would make sense if we only did one of the presented choices though... So shouldn't we decide what to pick, or work alongside each other. I have to disappoint you on my time, as I can be quite busy. I indeed have a lot of EB Bibliography books and my school is near a history library with even more info. Apart from research and basic modding things (editing some text files, changing colours, writing descriptions), I can barely do anything...

Hey Fluvius... Don't think i forgot about you... The thing is, that i'm 100% for the Principate mod. It's really a very interesting area for the mod to start, and finaly no CIVIL WARS, which is why i like it so much... If i did a mod like in 171 BC, and without civil wars, it would loose all the fun for myself, although i believe not all people are history fanatics like me, so this doesn't bother them as much...

If you would decide to assist in a Principate mod, i would be honored of your help, if however people would decide on a 171 mod, my assistance would be dubius. Not becouse i wouldn't want to, just because i wouldn't be motivated enough to do thorough reserch...

Hey Gamegeek2, nice to hear from a EB team member...

I must admit i have lost a bit my all-out Principate wishes, and would love to help with a republican mod. 80 BC seems good, but it would be nice if we could find ways to script the Civil-wars that followed in Rome. Basically after the third Mithridatic war, Rome was the Alpha and the Omega, and there was nothing anyone could do... I just fear Rome would be to overpowered if there wasn't a Roman rebel faction:)...

Have you any idea what the map would look like?

P.S. And what about the Sertorians in Spain? I think they already had things going over there... And the 3 Serville war would be coming... I dunno. Without this events, the campaing would be dry

**Cute Wolf** · 06-03-2010, 15:33

you could give one faction slot for Ivlivs Caesar family, and let the rest will be SPQR I tought. so this mod will focus on the struggle of caesar. OR PERHAPS THE OPPOSITE WAY ARROUND, made the Ivlivs Caesar family either "spawn on revolt" or "shadowing" SPQR faction. so the Romans will have to defend the republics from within. We could made several hapiness penalty for the Romans to emulate that, and Caesar will have practically no loyalty to teh SPQR...

so basically it was "SPQR" and "Imperivm Ivlianum" faction

perhaps you could kick one less important Barbarian faction... any ideas?

I'm a fan first and a team member second. I'm willing to put in significant effort into this project, and already have a map in the works (via Google Earth, to suggest settlements)

I missed out on the Numidians, but I think we'd best devote our attention to the real things that put Rome in trouble - Mithradates - as well as the threats from Germania.
