It's Friday the 13th!
Happy Horrordays everyone! I'm hoping December has been treating you all well so far, and that it'll only get better as we near Christmas! It's in this spirit I've decided to host two competitions, and this time, they're much bigger ones! Read below to find out more!
1st Competition Method:
1. Think up a cool idea for something that you would like included in the mod.
2. Put it into the comments below, with #Comp1 before it (on this news article)
3. Look through other suggestions and if you see one you like, give it a thumbs up. If you don't like it, give it a thumbs down!
4. On the 21st December, the 2 highest rated ideas will be put forward, worked on and then put into the mod!
5. Recline and play in pride as something you suggested/voted for is modded in!
2nd Competition Method:
1. Think what you would like the final mini-faction (In Sudnaw Territory (Try to fit the Scandinavian/French theme!)) to be like; their name, culture, style, weaponry etc.
2. Put it into the comments section of this article, with #Comp2 before it.
3. As before, look through and rate other suggestions.
4. Competition 2 results will be announced on the 21st in tandem with Competition 1's results.
5. Wait until the new version with the voted in features is made, and then enjoy!
Competition Rules:
-Nothing silly or rude. If something like this is voted to the top 2, we will ignore it.
-Nothing too extreme; "A whole new faction" is feasible, but the bigger the change, the longer it'll take.
-No changing of important game features. Troop tree adjustment may happen based on scale, but complete faction overhaul will not.
#Comp2 Odair's Wrath is their name. Their culture is Scandinavian to the max. Their look like Sudnaw troops but carry VERY heavy Armour,all troops wither carry medium or heavy Armour, weaponry is swords,poleaxes,battleaxes (please make & include a two-sided battleaxe), they even have helmets with Horns coming out of the top (Real viking didn't have that feature). Other weapons include long swords,short spears, and lots of throwing axes.
you could have amon amarth playing in the background if you meet them ;DDDDDDD
Cool asthey would be, I decided to test this idea. They were unstoppable. They killed 3 Lord parties and took their men captive; at once.
If this one is to win, they will have to be toned down in strength.
#comp1 you could include the ability to execute lords if you take them hostage like in brytenwalda (I'm not sure if that counts as too extreme)
#comp1 Naval battles,Super long spears(maybe Phalanx formation for a mini faction?)
#Comp1 I personally would love to see the Freelancers in this mod. Not to be confused with joining a Lord's army. I'm talking about Sigmund and his customizable troops from Floris Mod. However, in a mod called "Wind of the War" Moddb.com (a very under appreciated mod in my opinion)They are called personal troops, and can be recruited at any castle as long as you are a Lord. I think it would be great for players to introduce their own troop types.
#Comp2 The mini faction is a Frankish themed tribe known as the Delhag. They are sea fairing warriors, well armored with mail, conical helmets, and round shields. Their primary weapon is the famed Delhag throwing axe. Secondary weapons include longswords, hand held axes, 2 handed axes, and spears. Their heerbanns roam the northern seas, but are not afraid to venture south and raid the rich lands of Anglior.
#Comp 2 Galatian Raiders (Kingdom of Sudnaw)---- Fearsome warriors, coming from Ancient Times now got to Calradia, they wreak havoc and chaos upon the Kingdom of Sudnaw, aiming for gold and loot-----They fight with mainly axes and use heaps of throwing axes and javelins. They're style is very offensive, and they lack good archer support, but thats compensated by they're good throwing ability and good melee strenght-----They rely on armor, and they're more advanced troops are VERY armored with Gothic Armor and such, therefore they are a real challenge. They use axes, javelins, large shields, throwing axes, spears.Still, they lack good archer support witch nerfs them alittle bit...and they use horned viking armor for they're basic troops and for they're advanced troops they use Basicnets, something like Chapell-De-Fer. Thank you for the mod, and i loved it :)
Thats all i hope you enjoyed my idea and looking forward to having it on :)
