Hey, I was thinking about making myself an Age of Absolutism Mod. I mean if I could actually complete it I would post it. I was going to make it simple and take the default Europe map from BTS. I am an ameteur modder and just am doing this for fun.
I would like to change the techs around to focus on only that era (apprx. 1700AD) and edit some units for the era. Prussian Civ would have unique units like "The Grenadier" and the "Needle Gunner." If easy enough, I would also like to make the religions Catholic, Protestant, Greek Orthodox, Russian Orthodox, Judiasm, Islam, and Puritan or Atheism. I have selected these civs and possible/definate leaders for the mod:
-Five Major Powers
-Russian Empire- Peter the Great
-Austrian Empire- Hapsburgs (Some famous Hapsburg)
-England-Elizabeth/Charles I
-France- Louis XIV, The Sun King
-Prussian Empire- Frederick the Great
-Other Empires
-Swedish Empire- Charles XI
-Ottoman Empire-
-Portuguese Empire-
-Spanish Empire- Phillip II
-Polish Empire-
-Other Civs
-Republic of Venice-
-Dutch Republic-
-Northern Italy- Pope _____
-Kingdom of the Three Sicilies (Southern Italy)-
-Khanate of Crimea-
-Kingdom of Denmark-
-German States-
-Minor European States (Other European countries that are together, like Transylvannia, Swiss Confed., etc)- Some Minor Leader
I was learning about the era in history class and I love history and civ... I decided a nice easy mod would be some fun. Maybe a smaller map for Europe would work better, considering that I would need a lot more cities for the unmodded BTS version.
I am looking for feedback and ideas or the "That mod has been done, look here (link)." I did not see exactly the same thing in the mod directory, but I may have missed one... Thanks!
