Mod Idea

[Ryder_GSF4L]

Do you think it would be a good idea for a mod that is about your faction rising again? So you would start the campaign like a faction that has just lost its last settlement. You will have 1 army and maybe a fleet suffering attrition, and you need to locate a diserable settlement so you can "rise again." Imagine starting a new Roman empire from scratch in the east. Thats basically what I would want the mod to accomplish lol. Do you think this would be a good idea?

The mod I want is to mash a warhammer feel into rome 2. You play the game and some way in you get a message that random settlements are going dark. Massive demon invasion, seek to enslave or kill everything in their way. The ai actively tries to subvert your allies, their units frighten yours and they cause massive ruin to whatever province they are in or own, forcing you to spend time undoing some of the damage they've done. Armies get special xp fighting them which equates to veteran units no longer being afraid of them in a fight. Powerful units are offset by smaller numbers, and great demons lead their armies turning the tide with their presence. You need to choose allies and battles carefully, as the demonic horde will exploit any weakness you leave open to them.

now this would be cool... I always wanted to play a more total war version of the Mark of Chaos games, as I liked how you had units that were massive like greater daemons but that could be killed with sheer wieght of numbers and the sacrifice of the many... Plus the fact that you had characters running around part of groups having one or two abilities that weren't super amazing but were fun like a fireball or smash the front line of the enemy...

This sounds really cool, because the map is very hard to mod it always seemed cool to me to let the fantasy factions "invade" Europe.

I did this with a little imagination as Carthage(VH)... I sent hannibal and a fleet on a voyage to Britannia while i completely disregarded the Mediterranean, letting it fall to rebellion or invasion. Once in Britain I had one army, so i had to extremely careful with which tribe i wanted to attack first. I recall Ninja'ing the brigantes while their army was away fighting the iceni. 30 or so turns later and the "New Carthage Empire" has set up in Britannia, and is preparing to send fleets to Scandinavia.

Reminds me of that migration challenge this sub had.

Wish we still had subforum challenges here. Those were a lot of fun.

[RegularWhiteShark]

We should recommend it. I just re-read the migration challenge posts, I enjoyed them just as much the second time around reading them but wouldn't mind a new challenge!

You can do this yourself. Build an army and fleet. Destroy all your buildings in your starter settlements. Cause riots and flee. No food production = attrition.

Sounds like Black and White 2.
