Description
Taking Reggio di Calabria from the Bourbons
are there going to be any forts or even castles with
in or outside the cities? ) we do look forward for your mod!
probably forts. Castles... I dont think so. Unless they were there historically and got assaulted. But it's a difficult task and I'm not sure I can pull it off without help.
actualy there were a lot of small castles , château - we call them in French and more monumental strongholds if we take Eastern Europe and Russian cities such as Smolensk, Moscow and others
what do you need help with
Implementing the actual settlement with IWTE since I know settlements are divided into sub structures and I would rather not split my models into pieces. Also research photos of the settlements.
I would dare say castles are not necessary in the mod. Cities should be considered the central places of power since that's where all the regulars were conscripted and trained, the military academies resided there. You could implement the forts from kingdoms as permanent fortifications on the map, while inside the city building menu the player could have the option to build rings of star-shaped forts like in Empire Total War
Of course that would require changing the battlefields too
Castles are not necessary, but having some would be a nice touch, historically they were strategic points of intrest, obsolete, but there was a castle siege that happened during ww2 so I guess you could say it's still better than a farmhouse.
