This is my mod Rhye's and Fall of Britannia. It is a medieval mod based on the Dark Ages to the War of the Roses in the British Isles. If you have ideas, post them in the thread.

Love the idea, but all I can help is through history...

If you know more than me, that would be alot of help.(I'm from Canada) I only know incredible detail from 400(About the time the Romans left) to 600 AD... Around the time the Welsh were overran into Wales and South-Western Great Britain(That very large penninsula that Plymouth is on). I only have a passing knowledge of the rest.

I would slow down the game during the Saxon, Norse and Norman invasions. I would say that the game would end right before the Hundred Years War.
I forgot to say this, but I also need a map of Great Britain with either no resources or even better, resources in accurate locations not including oil or coal.
But, until then, I'm going to attempt the Billion people challenge for RFC.

All right, Then I can help. I guess it will more directed toward UU, UP, UHV, and UB.
Do you have a map yet?
What about strathclyde?

Baron, I agree that that would be more based on UUs, UPs, UHVs, and UBs.
I think that the Welsh in Wales should have a UHV of "Have so many castles by such and such a date"

UB for the Welsh: A castle that supplies better defense?
Nope. I do have a map for Beyond the Sword but it is forestless and resourceless.

Baron03 · Sep 6, 2011

Wait... Are the welsh one Civ? Or all the separate ones you listed?

All of the separate ones. I'm just saying for certain kingdoms, that those should be an UB and/or an UHV for certain kingdoms.

Baron03 · Sep 6, 2011

Oh! I understand now... I'll need a few days to think of a few U's, and a few other suggestions

Okay. sounds good. I'll go play a round of RFC and then begin on that other list of Civs I have thought of so far.
Edit: Ooh. Just found a series of maps of Britain from 400 AD every 25 years to 625 AD. I could use this!

Spoiler :

Also, just thought; I would like to make the Irish of Hibernia very aggressive and make them pillage and raze/conquer happy.

They were notorious before and during the 500's at raiding the Welsh settlements on the west coast(they were the closest).
Edit 2: ooh. just noticed my major typo for the name.

Would LOVE to see this finished! Sounds awesome!

It would be easier to simply create your own mod than to force RFC into a Brittania scenario/map. Because you don't only have to learn Python, but also C++ and figure out how to compile that all-important DLL file.

I know right? Below is the blank map of Britain that I have borrowed from Feet:

Spoiler :

--I'll cut down on the mountains and replace some of them with hills for playability in Scotland.--

I am willing to learn. I want the stability ratings, I want the collapses, I want the mercenaries, I want the staggered start dates, I want the plagues, ... basically RFC.

Baldyr · Sep 7, 2011

Yeah, but still... Its a huge task! :eek:

I know I would rather make my own mod from the ground-up, and only add those elements that are necessary. I could always add more features later, once the mod is playable. I would be able to get solutions and even logic from RFC, but I wouldn't implement anything as-is. I'd much rather have something that is custom-tailored for my scenario.

Good luck with it, nonetheless.

It's actually not that difficult to strip RFC of all "Earth History" scenario related stuff and add your own scenario (it's even easier to do this for SoI because its code is much better structured, plus there's a guide by edead on this).

It's still a huge task, of course, but in my opinion it's easier to have the RFC mechanics from the start.

That is what I was thinking. Why rebuild something from the ground when some of it is useable?

anyways, just building Civs right now, then I will fix the map, then I will truly start.

Also: I am up to this HUGE task as I have too much spare time on my hands.
I know full-well how large of a task it is, I have already done something like this but completely different and not for Civilization.

Right. I suggest from my own experience that you assemble graphics, civs, techs, buildings etc. and the map first and then integrate everything into RFC.

Okay. Thanks for the advice.

Leoreth · Sep 7, 2011

On another note, how familiar are you with RFC mechanics? Do you know which additional information you need, like settler or city name maps?

I know about the city name maps but not the settler maps.

Leoreth · Sep 7, 2011

Okay, that's not too important right know, but it's a good idea to think about early on which spots a civ should preferably settle.
