Whitefire, if you want me to cede back the project to you, I shall ;)

A provisional list of civs, warts and all, with some suggested civs, has been added to the original post. This is by no means definitive, and most likely a lot of civs will be removed and a lot added.

I know I'm skipping a bit, but my friend gave me an interesting idea: How about an Apostolic Palace resolution to call for an Inquisition? This would give a certain chance for each Catholic city to have other religions erased, but +1 unhappiness in all these city.

We don't need to be historically accurate completely, we must remember that gameplay is more important. "Ease of play", by the way, was directed at Disenfranchised and actually referred to the computer's ability to process it and so on. The tech tree will probably be added to, and the modern...

mitsho, that seems like an excellent civ list. I give you my sanction, however much it is worth, for that to become official (tentatively).

OK, I must make something clear. This is a Modcomp and not a Modpack. Whilst it'd be wonderful to have a modpack for this, we're sticking to the RFC mod as closely as possible, meaning some of the ideas here can't really be implemented. This is Rhye's of Europe and not the Big Europe Scenario...

Golden Age. I don't tend to use Spies very much, myself: I've never seen them as being particularly useful. Others will disagree.

I don't have much time now so I can't reply to all of the comments given just yet. One thing I'll say however is that I agree the map should be made a tad larger, to include the whole of the Mediterranean and some more of northern Africa, to allow a larger Ottoman Empire and Crusades. Crusades...

Again, let's not worry about the end date too much. Whatever it is - within reason - it shouldn't have too much bearing on the civs, which is what we're going to focus on now. I don't think the end date will be moved forward, definitely not to encompass World War I. There's a reason it's called...

I have to say that 600 is very messy: only three or four of those civs are civs that I can see having any notable impact over the long term of this scenario. 450 is even worse, there are no good playable civs around at that time that will last realistically for the course of such a scenario...

There have been a few detailed posts and I'll have to reply to each of them in turn. For the moment however: Can anyone who wants to be involved in this project as a developer of any sort - writer, coder or artist - state so or PM me? Just to keep a tab on everything.

How about there being both a Holy Roman Empire and Prussia? The HRE would spawn early, and then Prussia would appear late in the game, on cities defected from the HRE and any independents in the area (???). This would prevent the need for ridiculous amounts of independents in Germany, and allow...

I would say replace Nelson with Henry V. Joan of Arc I think can stay because she practically was France's leader under the Hundred Years War.

Yes it is, the League of Nations even had a whole Mandates Committee. Reichskommissariat of Spain is presumably the German vassal. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_State Caliphate of Spain is better in my opinion, and more recognisable. Tributary Spanish State is either Chinese...

450-1750 was roughly the timespan of how Whitefire wanted the game to be, not my own vision. I agree 870 to 1900 actually works somewhat better. Rex rgis: will deal with these things in turn - after we've got the game's structure as mitsho is laying out, then we can carry on to do these...
