Scandza: Total War

Rome: Total War mod |

This modification-project strives to create a series of modifications focusing on Scandinavia in the Migration Period, a ruthless and unforgiving period when Germanic tribes broke up from their homelands. There have been many theories as to the reasons for this sudden time of unrest. The ancient historians wrote about tribes such as the Visigoths, Ostrogoths, Franks, Burgundians, Langobards, and other such tribes. These tribes were the ones that invaded the Roman Empire, but those were not the only tribes searching for new lands. The Tribes that didn't invade Rome itself, the ones even further north of the borders, were not very interesting for the Roman scribes, and the few written sources are either vague or destroyed. These tribes were also in movement in this period, those are the tribes that I want to depict in this modification. It must be done in the most historically plausible way, while at the same time using the characters of legend to bring the lands of Scandza into life.

Now that the Rome Remaster is at our doorstep, I thought it would be an ideal time to release Scandza in its current state before I may have to port it all to the new version of the game, so don't be surprised if there's a Scandza beta release soon!

I can also reveal that the mod will feature music and ambience by the band Krauka, using traditional instruments and Icelandic lyrics, with themes inspired by Scandinavian prehistory and saga literature.


Also check out the cinematic trailer made by Fahnat:

For anyone seeing this late, I can reveal that the upcoming release is not far off (anywhere between a couple of weeks and a couple of months) and instead of a beta release, it's going to be a full release. That's why it's been taking longer than I anticipated when writing the article.
