Dei Agminum (Armies of God) is an ambitious mod project aimed at becoming the premiere Medieval II Total War Crusades mod. Its origins can be traced back to the Broken Crescent Submod "Jersualem Rising". It will use the Crusades campaign from Kingdoms as a base but will in time morph into its own distinct entity. For now I will concentrate on revamping the Crusades campaign through this mod. This will include renaming existing units, settlements and factions with their historical names, introducing historically accurate buildings and new units and completely remaking unit art/UI (models, textures, banners, screens and etc.) and introducing other assets. For now these are the mod's main priorities.

Current State of the mod. KOJ development is about 80% finished. The Roman Empire is the next faction to be worked on. I am also looking to put together a mod team for this project.

Although the mod made its debut on ModDb today, I have already amassed a body of work. The Kingdom of Jerusalem is mostly done, in terms of units, stratmap models and banners. I am pretty much going to port over my work from Jerusalem Rising into this mod which is why I have so much progress on the Kingdom of Jerusalem. All that's left to do for KOJ is to implement all the units and art by editing the needed data files. I don't think this will take more than a week.

For loading screens and UI elements I will be bringing over assets from "Regnum Caelorum", another M2TW Crusades mod; all credit goes to "thewanderingknight" the creator of that mod who gave me permission to use these assets. I will also be creating my own elements.

I've also started working on unit design for the Roman Empire. I've created a base model that will be used for the development of various medium infantry types for this faction. With that said, you may have guessed already that after I finish developing KOJ I will be going full-on into developing the RE. Your feedback of course is welcome.

Also I am open to collaborating with anyone willing to help. As I am comfortable with working on the art, if someone can help with editing files and scripting that would be an invaluable asset to me. Hopefully I can put together a small team to realize this project.

Byzantine Medium Infantry. My main inspiration being the Byzantine Army of the Komnenian era.
