Would anyone be willing to help me make it?

The Plot:

In 1935 C.E., the continent of Europa is dominated by two superpowers: The Autocratic East Europan Imperial Alliance in the east and a commonwealth of loosely allied democracies known as the Atlantic Federation in the west.The economies of both powers depend on a precious multi-purpose mineral called Ragnite. Its growing scarcity results in the Empire declaring war on the Federation, sparking the Second Europan War. The Empire uses its military superiority to quickly put the Federation on the defensive. Emboldened by their progress and momentum, the Empire decides to invade the neutral Principality of Gallia to seize its rich Ragnite deposits.

The Scenario would focus on Gallia vs. Imperials.

The Civs:

Name:The Principality of Gallia
Characteristics:Industrious, Commercial
Leader:Cordelia Gi Randgriz
Full of nature and rich in Ragnite ore, The Principality of Gallia is a small independent nation which borders the Empire.Internationally Gallia is characterized by it's policies of armed neutrality and universal conscription and is notable amongst smaller independent states for it's success in declining to ally themselves to either of the warring superpowers that border it. Their units are slightly weaker than the Empire's but they are built faster.
Cities:
Randgriz(Capital)
Lanseal Military Academy(Primary Military Academy for Gallia)
Anthold(Harbor City)
Bruhl(Small Town Near Imperial Invasion Starting Point)
Fouzen(Ragnite Rich Mining Operation)
Mellvere(Trading City in Southern Gallia)
Yuell(Medium Sized City in Central Gallia)

Characteristics:Militaristic,Industrious
Leader:Maximilian Gaius Von Reginrave
The Autocratic East Europan Imperial Alliance is one of two major world powers in the Valkyria Chronicles universe and the main enemy of Gallia.Their units are stronger than Gallian Units but take longer to build.
Cities(Bases):Military Bases are around Gallia to Support the Invasion

could be interesting, and I think it would be easy to make. Since Valkyria is kind of like a fantasy WW1-WW2 world, there are many units you could use. And for the leaderhead u could use the flags.

Have you actually started anything... you are more likely to get help if you have started work on the mod; but even then you are most likely to get help if you are actively making a mod and plan on completing it. And exactly what do you need help with?

It's near impossible for more than 1 person to create the BIQ; as it's a pain sending it around, other parties don't know what changes or ideas the others want. I would assume you will be designing the scenario BIQ file.

I don't know much about anime, but anything regarding WW1/WW2 would grab my interest.

I've started making the Map and attempted to create some of the resources required.
Also started making the Civilopedia Entries for the Units I have so far

I mainly need help with the Unit making and (If I can't figure it out) Resource Making...

its going to be hard to find people to help, because there are so many threads like this that die quickly. Making units and graphics is a commitment and it takes time, so many people don't want to make them if they are too specific, like this mod, especially if they are not sure if the mod will ever be finished.

If you want to see units get made, get Poser unit making is very easy now, its just takes aloooot of time.

Also go into the forums and read instructions of adding units or resources to a map.

Whenever I tried adding Ragnite to the map(Currently just an island) the image wouldn't show up....

I edited the Default Uranium in Paint.

Then I opened the resources PCX for the Mod

Pasted it in an Empty Pink Square which would have made it Picture 22

Still won't show up...

I apologise if these aren't much help, but I've learned that it's best not to get too bogged down in 100% perfect unit graphics until the meat of the mod or scenario is actually done. Otherwise you stop seeing the forest for the trees :)

I don't know that much about Valkyria Chronicles. But wouldn't the Gallian army be mostly men and the Gallian militia be 50/50 or maybe slightly more women?

The Militia was their Army...

The Militia in the sense your thinking of is the Town Watch

In the Town Watch (According to who is seen) there are very few Women...

In The Army there are at least 20 Women Per Squad...

The only thing you'll have issue with for a while is the Lancer; I wasn't aware that it was a missile sort of thing he had, but I can see that now.

Do you think these are fair stats for the Imperial Scout?

6 Attack/8 Defense/7 Movement

Quinzy
Aug 17, 2011, 04:47 AM
Depends on his contemporary units, surely. If this is a random map game, then 7 move is very high. If it's a preset map, then depending on the size of the map, that might or might not be too high.

tom2050
Aug 17, 2011, 05:16 AM
7 move seems way too high. On a road, a unit could travel 21 tiles (if kept at 3/tile). I have units that have 4 moves in my mod, but they are very rare and auto-produced. So depends on the rest of the game setup. If all units have high moves, the map and gamestyle of Civ3 just don't fit well with that in general.

Dogman328
Aug 17, 2011, 01:53 PM
Then 4 or 5 seems fair...
