Thera: Legacy of the Great Torment is a conversion mod for Medieval II: Total War: Kingdoms that creates an entirely new campaign map with a number of new and modified factions.
Thera was once a world much like our own: a world of vast forests and windswept plains, with mighty civilizations and rich, extensive cultures. The Great Torment happened. The ground heaved and shuddered, swallowing entire cities and cracking continents. Vast storms swept over regions for weeks, months, and in some places years. Frigid blizzards iced over many of the lands, and what wasn't frozen suffered famine and plagues. The civilizations of the world broke and scattered, with only the hardiest surviving the disasters that ensued. Some civilizations turned to warfare to survive, others to science, others to religion.
That was two hundred and twenty-two years ago. The seas have calmed, the storms have passed, the plagues have ended, and the fields are green again. The survivors of the Torment have banded together into a number of small civilizations, separated by vast lands of wilderness and hostile brigands. With stable food and a growing population, the leaders of the nations of Thera have begun to look outwards from their borders, with spies, diplomats, and armies mobilizing to see what remains of civilization and what they can seize for themselves.
As a campaign, Thera places emphasis on careful empire management, intermixed with the proud Total War tradition of finding someone to beat the snot out of and crushing them in tactical battles. The player starts out with a substantial war chest and a large number of unaffiliated rebel settlements bordering their territory, encouraging rapid expansion and buildup early on before real war erupts between the various nations. There is a wide variety of factions to choose from, some of them being modified original factions from Medieval II and Kingdoms while others are entirely new, with completely new character models. Though at first glance the mod looks like an alternate Earth, there's a lot of deliberate anachronisms and some Low Fantasy elements (primarily in the form of the bestial Uruk Dominion).
also for icons,go to therea folder icons folder i recomend the uruk icon
how can i put the icon on the launcher?
create a shortcut for the launcher then right cick choose properties and then click change icon then clikc browser go to thera's folder icons adn choose wich you icon you enjoy the best
will we ever get elves? or dwarves>?
no,this is the final version of the mod before the creator vanished into the void,i merely made it available since i dont trust total war center to keep links alive for long
Elves would be nice to add in - something for the Asian faction or spanish faction
On second, this patch seems like a huge step back
this is the original version of thera,it is much less performance demanding,better performance but no fancy units,you should get thera redux it has more units,and better skins but the factions are the same,have in mind that load times and end turn times are longer,also thera redux buldings takes more turns to build.
I have a problem I copied the folder in the mods folder, bu when I try to reun the BAT file it gives an error saying "Kingdom.exe" not found. I tried copying the exe files and renaming them but it did't work...any advice ?
Copy Medieval 2 exe and copy it then rename it to kingdoms
