I already posted some screenshots to Reddit, but I thought I start a thread here as well to show my progress and collect feedback. So there is that
What is this mod?
This mod is an overhaul of the game's map. Best to look at screen shots to see what it entails. Overall I'd slowly reworking the world to better fit my own peculiar vision of what the map should look like. Generally speaking this means I feel that borders should follow lines of actual control, and not some nebulous line drawn on a map. Overal that means a large number of borders have been redrawn better (though by no means perfectly) correspond to the reality on the ground. Another peculiarity is that I don't like to see the straight colonial era borders, so I worked hard to hide them until the colonial border.
Features
- A fully redrawn map of Africa north of the Congo river, the Middle East, Central Asia, Indonesia and North America
- An improved map of (Western) Europe
- An improved river and terrain map
- A reworked resource setup
- A handful of new cultures
Soon.
The first release will be just the map. The goal is to get it out there, let people play with it, but mostly I hope people will use it in their own mods or add their own content for it.
I still need to quite a bit work, so don't expect it in the next few weeks.
Preview
The current state of the map rework. I could use some feedback on:
- What to do with Mandinka. It is currently a placeholder for decentralised Mande people, but I also want to incorporate the Wassalou Empire.
- What to do with what the Mossi/Wala/Kong/Adagh area.
- What I should do with Anyi and the region between the Ashanti and the European Gold Coast colonies (should I add the Fante (unrecognised) and other (decentralised) states?
Reworked the states in Western Europe.
