Illuria

[nihonjeff]

I was browsing through some old threads, and came across this one. To date, I have been content to play the official FFH, with no modmods, extra scenarios, or downloaded maps.

But, man, I would love the chance to relive those old Warlords campaigns...

I know nothing of scenario creation or modding, but I was wondering if any of you skilled and knowledgeable folks might be inclined to update Starship's old Battlefield Illuria mod for the latest versions of FfHII. I would count myself most indebted.

That sounds cool. I myself don't have the time. But I echo nihonjeff's request

Lol now that would be something. Hehe Lord Bane. He looked so funny in the Warlords III cutscene

Well, could someone do this mod? As I said, I'm too busy. I gotta work.

I play on an illuria-map, sort of. I took the map from the link you gave me, put it in the BTS/publicmaps, and then used the map script smartmap, with which I cold select the Illuria-map as setting for the "continents" option. Throw in the flavourmod and you have a generated Illuriaesque map of customizable size, climate etc which optimizes the starting locations to fit the chosen civs.

It's not Lord Bane vs. Horse Lords, but alteast the Hippus and Calabim can clash over the same battlefield... you know, that no-mans-land to the west of Banes litte Mountain-kingdom.... ah, the nostaliga

Also, once you've gotten into the map you can use the worldbuilder to make whatever illuriabased scenario you want to.

Cool. I love the ideas. More leaders, more civs. Oh, wow. Sounds righteous.
