Anyone else played this mod? I really like the new settlements (i.e. Castles) And how upgrading your settlements does come at a cost. Better troops, but more people pissed off with the power structure.

This mod will add the Etruscans to the vanilla campaign game. It also merges the Romans into one faction and makes some other small changes as well.

So without further ado, the preview:

The Etruscans

The Etruscans were once the dominant faction on Italy, but since the Romans grew to power the Etruscans were absorbed into the empire, and Loyalists fled to nearby Corsica.

Now it is time for the Etruscan peoples to fight back. Etruria is already under Etruscan control and with the Romans reeling from the recent blow, the Etruscans are already looking south to Rome...


The Etruscan territories:


Etruscan Hoplites:


Etruscan Heavy Peltasts:


Etruscan Noble Cavalry:


With the promise that the tyrannical rule of Rome would be overthrown, the Gauls have sent many of their best cavalrymen to aid the Etruscans in their plight. With the recapture of Etruria, the Gauls have also sent some of their best hunters, in an effort to aid the Etruscan war machine...

While far away from Gaul, in the Greek province of Laconia, the world's best warriors board ship, and set sail for the island of Corsica. With an Etruscan/Greek alliance firmly in place, and the Gauls merrily supporting their cause, all looks set for the Etruscans to take back what is rightfully theirs...


***************************************

The mod should be out fairly soon, but no fixed date. Right now I am setting about skinning the various units and changing the troop roster. Expect an interesting faction to emerge. ;)

I need a skinner for my Etruscan mod, all they need to do is change some unit skins to another faction colour. IF anyone's interested email me at old(dot)marc(at)googlemail(dot)com

Britannia. Head hurlers and chariots are made of nothing but awesome.

I've decided for the beta to go Greek with some barbarian support troops. I could add Romans later but not yet.

At the moment the faction is made, I just need to reskin is so it doesn't look Roman (I used the Brutii as a base) Then I can release the beta.

In case anyone's wondering, this will be mod:switch, so you can keep your original game.

What is the point of this, we just deliberately don't post when they predict us to so the previous poster is wrong. :P

1419
I've reimplemented the brutii, renamed as the Etruscans and I'm now looking at the units they should have. I was thinking of a mixture of greek/barbarian. your thoughts?

Possible troop tree:

Infantry:
Warband
hoplites
armoured hoplites
chosen swordsmen?

Missile:
greek peltasts
greek heavy peltasts
foresters?

Cavalry:
militia cav
barbarian cav
barbarian noble cav

Would that work?

Well, hello there.

Right, I have had no contact with Vamp at all, he's not replied to any msn posts or any emails, so we can assume he's AWOL. There is a friend of his on msn who says he's on every now and then, But he seems to have conveniently logged off just as I've got on every time, so I don't believe him.

For those who fancy getting me on their msn list, it's marcus_orentius(at)yahoo(dot)co(dot)uk.

So, First thing I need to do once I'm admin again, is find out what bit of code manages the colour of this post box, because I can hardly see what I'm typing.

So, I see some new faces here, as well as the old ones, (Hi Mars), These will be the forums until something is sorted out.
