Starting in 1519, India is Fractured into Several Hindu and Muslim Ruled Empires. Babur the Timurid begins his invasion from Afghanistan. The Portuguese, the first European traders to establish trade colonies in India, have begun their wars against the Muslims. Gunpowder is relatively new and having a strong effect on the peasant and elephant armies traditional to medieval India. =Simpler Submods for a 1725AD and 327BC start date are also in progress. HELP WANTED: historical research/editing models and textures/scripting help/and making custom battle maps and building models

The main mod for this project is set in 1519, when the Mughal Empire, ruled by Babur, descended from Timur, invaded India with his Afghan army, their steppe influenced cavalry, along with musketmen and light artillery, dominated India for the next two hundred years.
Possible Submods
The Mughals were replaced by the Maratha, players Empire Total War will feel more familiar with the next submod, set in 1723, with the rise of the British Trading Company and the Maratha Empire, this mod will focus more heavily on gunpowder warfare. (Map won't be released until after main mod, I may release custom battle version beforehand)
A Smaller submod set in 1500 is planned, featuring the east African coast and simulating the Portuguse India Armadas and their actions in Kerela and other coastlines of the Indian Ocean. (Map in Very early Development)
Long before this, in the year 326 BC, Alexander the Great, After having marched his army all the way from Macedonia, invades the Indian subcontinent. The rise of the Maurya Empire will be the primary focus of this mod. (Map in Very early Development)

Will there be an optional script that gives you missions to take each Delhi region, then when they're gone the Suri Sultanate forms and you loose that gained land to them? It's a little repetitive but seems like a cool idea to recreated how the Mughal conquest actually went down.
Sith_Pureblood Suri is going to be an emergent faction but I haven't added them or any missions yet, I do plan too though
Super cool, I look forward to your finished mod! Let me know if you'd ever like any help writing the faction descriptions or whatnot. I know a fair amount about this history as I'm majoring (generally) in North African/Middle East/Indian history; especially Muslim history.
Last time I played this mod was as the Mughals, so might as well see where it is now
Hi, just quickly played as the Zamorin in custom battles. a huge factor that is missing is elephants. There would be large numbers of elephants in the kerala armies. Also the shield or buckler shape is wrong. the buckler would look more like this :

lionheartofengland Hey, yeah the unit models are still in pretty early phase but I'll be working more on them soon, there are elephants available to them though, they're right after their cavalry on the pre-battle army selection screen, I'm adding elephant bodyguards for them also
Hey guys,
great idea for a mod. If you would need any help i have extensive knowledge of Portugal and the Mughal Empire. Is there any way to send PM's on moddb? I feel like it's very hard to see which posts came at which time.
I would also suggest asking for the start a lot of other mods for units, so you avoid the ugly generic vanilla ones. For example there are some great mods for Timurid units, the late versions of which could be really well used for the early Mughal army etc...
I think most mods would allow it, same for like Hindu units from Broken Crescent or Portuguese units from a few Euro-Centric mods.
Anways, really excited about this, and if you guys need any help on those factions let me know :)
Timuridboy Hey there I appreciate the offer and we could definitely use any help so please feel free to share whatever, I haven't started with importing custom models because I haven't heard back from the Broken Crescent team for permission yet and I have limited space on my hard drive to download new mods and look for units, I will start soon however for the most common units and unique elite units.
You can PM with the small letter icon at the top left, I would prefer you share information as a post to the Factions and Unit/Unit Appearance article, or whatever is relevant, so huzurat and krishnca, the two other mod members, can see your posts too, also you may want to go to their profiles so you can see all the comments they've posted, a lot of good info. Also I will be updating the articles and posting a new mod version with more units in about a week
Thanks again for the offer
Why is the campaign not working
I don't know it's working for me, I'm using the non-Steam Gold version on windows 7, message me the last twenty lines or so lines of the logs.txt file after it crashes
