I looked around a bit and I saw a few threads about a Mortal Engines mod, but they all seemed inactive, which sucks.
I'm looking for a team to help out with the project and ideas on how to make it better, would be nice.
I've done a quick map to show what it should be like.
The Premise
There was a horrible war, known as the Sixty Minute war where the major powers used destructive technology which ended in the collapse of civilization, apart from Asia, who managed to come out of it with their countryside relatively intact.
After the Sixty Minute War, Traction Cities were created by the people, which are moving cities. An example of such a city is London.
To get the fuel these cities need to survive they either eat "statics" (Regular Cities) or smaller cities than themselves.
There is, however a group of people known as the Anti-Tractionist league, who wish to carry on life as they had before, albeit without the previous technology, which was lost.
When the player joins, a radical group known as the Green Storm have seized control of the Anti-Tractionist government, a group who believe the only way to "make the world green again" is to destroy all traction cities.
Features:
Moving Cities (I've heard it's possible, So why not?
)
Airships (Zeppelins)
Maps:
America, who was worst affected by the war effectively becoming a wasteland. central America is completely destroyed, so North and South America are Split.
Northern Europe, whose cities have been ruined and seas have dried up.
Southern Europe, whose countryside has been demolished by the war.
Asia, as already mentioned, was pretty much unchanged by the war.
Civilizations
There are four Civilizations that are around within this timeline, though two are generally uninvolved. (The Nuevo Mayans and Idependent Traction Cities)
The Nuevo Mayans, who are pretty much the equivalent of todays South Americans, who llive in "Ziggurat Cities".
They do not get involved in European Politics, but they may send their Airships if they wish.
The Independent Traction Cities, who are the regular traction cities like Rome, London, Arkangel. They are locked in war with Independent Traction Cities and the Green Storm.
The (long name, I know)Traktionstadtgesellschaft are a group of Nuevo German Traction Cities who formed up to stop the invading Green Storm forces. They are locked in war against the Green Storm.
The Green Storm are a radical group who seized control of Anti-Tractionist lands. They are locked in war with the Traktionstadtgesellschaft and Traction Cities.
The Independent Anti-Tractionists are the cities that broke away from the league when the Green Storm took control. They are locked in war with Traction Cities.
There is also a settlement known as Vineland, but that isn't suitable for playing.
Leaders:
Nuevo Mayans : [Lack of Information, Will be updated as and when]
Independent Traction Cities: Adlai Browne (Mayor of Manchester)
Traktionstadtgesellschaft : Kreigsmarshal Von Kobold / Traktionstadt Weimar
Green Storm : Stalker Fang / General Naga
Independent Anti-Tractionists : Captain Khora
Pretty much all I can think of at the moment.
The Leaderheads could be an issue. Oh well.
Any thoughts/ insights please share them.
