Yes! This is finally what I've been looking for! Sign me on, I'm excellent at event writing and I can do a little bit of modding. Though I have some requests/proposals:
1. Ask for a sub-forum; it is really chaotic and confusing working from the one thread. It will make things more difficult as time goes on too.
2. How about we go epic? Let's request permission from the VIP makers to do a merger and run right through from the 18th century to the 20th. I really miss the 200-300 year games that EU gave us, and here's an oppurtunity to recreate it. I'm willing to pony up and do the hard work on figuring out how to get the AI to work itself out to fit in historically over the span if everyone else is willing to help me out with the parts that I can't do.
Well, let me know what you think. I've been wanting to do this for so long, but don't have the ability to do it all on my own.

Just thought to add, while some may see this as unfeasible due to lack of country spaces and the inability to change country names mid game, I think there is a solution. There are 19 custom spaces - that's quite a lot - and some countries that can be taken out. For example, Bali; is there really a point? One province, no events, uncivilised, never has an army to speak of... that slot could be used more constructively. There are others such as this, but let me know if you're interested in this before I go into detail and work it all out.

ANYTHING ELSE
Small corection in Courland: Dinaburg should be Polish (Polish Livonia) and Riga should be Russian.
Thorn/Torun should be Polish, not Prussian
And btw, Polish flag should be that of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth

About the epic part - well we can't do a merger with VIP because of the tags, they are using them for their own stuff, we need them as well.
A sub-forum would be nice, but for the moment we will have to wait, unless someone wants to ask...
Could you research and come up with some events for any other country other than France?
I would like to get an alpha show case 1792 scenario done, just so everyone knows we mean business. Just basic scenario, borders, countries, major events for mainly France, Britian and a few other nations. We can start to do leaders, techs and minor events once we have a sub-forum.
Kaiser Franz said:
That's fair enough about the tags. Maybe as we go along I can work out a way to extend it to the 20th Century on our own terms rather than just merging with the VIP. But that's up to you, your project after all.
Kaiser Franz said:A sub-forum would be nice, but for the moment we will have to wait, unless someone wants to ask...
Ok, I'll ask.
Kaiser Franz said:
Sure thing. How about I focus on the east? I'll work around Prussia, Poland, Austria-Hungary and Russia (with a little bit of Sweden because they are involved) and work out the death of Poland-Lithuania?
good! do us some good research on Poland, Prussia etc, if possible do us some event ideas.
Good to have you aboard!
Good to have you aboard!
A small correction that needs to be made to the map: Danzig was in Russian control since 1734.
Xanthippus said:
Actually, scratch that, MAJOR corrections need to be made to Poland. :rofl:
You've got it way, way too small for a 1740 start. The first partition wasn't until 1772, and until then it was still a huge confederacy. The territory you have there is actually pretty close to the territory it held after the first partition, but I'll handle that via my events, so just need you to fix up its starting territory. Here's what it should have:
Also, Courland should be a satellite of Poland-Lithuania. Russia, Prussia and Austria shouldn't have any Polish cores either, they should be added by the partition events.

Don't want to be rude, but your map is... not very good. BTW, map that was posted earlier was for 1792 scenario AFAIK.
And where you got the idea that Danzig was Russian from 1734?
It was a fortress of Stanislaw Leszczynski's supporters in the war after Augustus II's death and may have been occupied by Russian army back then, but it surely wasn't anexed by them or anything
Kaiser Franz said:
What about French control of all of northern Italy, or the existence of the Cisalpine Republic, and a close French presence to Vienna (ie the Trentino is in French hands)? We may have a problem with Sardinia Piedmont making peace on their own, perhaps an event that forcibly cedes all of mainland Sardinia Piedmont to France and moves the capital to Sardinia would be appropriate?
Xanthippus said:
Danzig was taken by the Russians in 1734 but later returned to Poland and it was a part of Poland until April 1793 when it was taken annexed by Prussia. Duchy of Courland is a satellite of Poland, it was annexed by Russia in 1795.
1770 Scenario
There was a big war going on about independence of Poland between Ottoman Empire/Crimea and Russia between 1768-1774 because Ottoman Empire was against the partitions and Russian control of Poland. the partititions of Poland between Russia, Austria and Prussia was made in 1772 after Russia invaded Crimea and it was certain that the Ottomans would lose the war, but the war went on until 1774. So 1770 scenario would start at the middle of such a war, maybe the begining date should be reconsidered.

God no! sorry but we are still working on it....i want to get an alpha 1792 scenario done to show everyone what we have done. At the moment Killerdude was working on the map, Rey on leader pics and flags, and the rest of us were making up events, ideas etc. I'd really like the team to get all of the stuff we have done so far and make a basic scenario done, so everyone knows we mean business.
Strategist could you come up with the basis of a scenario? But before we start to construct it we need to go over everything we have done for the 1792 scenario, events, tags, borders etc so we can get it fairly right etc.
So everyone who has done events, maps, borders, pics etc please post them now so i can go over them and OK them...once we have done that we can start to make the 1st version of the Age of Revolutions mod!
EDIT: Is there a patch that covers the period 1740 onwards? if not we can always use the 1AD to 1922/2000 patch.
oh nooo...not just yet...we must gradually do it...not to make things hectic, do it at your own pase...
I need some basic info:
What year am I working in, and what scenarios do we have?
What tags am I assigned to work with?
Who do I need to do events for?
