First of all I would like to say that this mod is at it's very early stages (maybe it's even too early to post the thread)...
So the real modding is on hold until Warbands expansion but I will present you some of my models and ideas
This mod will be set in The Elder Scrolls universe in province of Cyrodill right after the Emperors murder...
For those of you who aren't familiar with TES Oblivion : Emperor was assassinated by Mythic Dawn Cult...
The Mythic Dawn is a cult that worships
Mehrunes Dagon, the daedric prince of destruction .
Their main objective is to help daedra invade Tamriel by opening
Oblivion Gates in order to destroy all of the cities in the continent.
You are here to stop them... Or join them
FACTIONS :The Empire
Deadric Invasion ---> they will have only Oblivion gates (will act like castles)
Dark brotherhood :darkbrotherhood: ---> mini faction with only one or two hidden castles/hideouts in this case
(basically Dark brotherhood is a secret guild dedicated to hired killings)
Looters and all other wandering parties will be replaced with apropriate creatures (skeletons, liches, bandits and maybe even ogres)
For simplicity's sake you will only be able to visit certain places in the town ... For example :
When you come to the Imperial City you will only be able to visit market district (because you can find all the shops and taverns in market district)...
Also... Imperial City is going to be divided into these parts :
Imperial City (will act as a town)
Imperial City Prison (will act as a castle)
Arcane university (will act as a castle, if I implement the magic sistem you will be able to buy new spells there)
Imperial City Waterfront (will act as a village)
I'll even try to make some caves and fort ruins ... Not as big and as good as in the original game but there will be some...
