The M2TW grand campaign has nothing close to be considered "accurate". It's an unhistorical way to see Medieval Europe.

Dominion of the Sword, THAT´s gonna be accurate 
Btw, great mod, Cèsar! nice to see it progress!

Sorry for the late 15th century rulers.Here the Rulers of the time:
Albanian Princedomshimitër Progoni
The Ottoman Empire->The Seljuk Empire:Sultan Saladin I
Viking Kingdoms:Haakon Haakonsson
No more Iceland(conquered by Haakon)and Finland(Conquered by Eric IX)
Kingdom of Sweden:Eric IX

mmm...Saladin was kurd, not Seleucid, and was the commander of the Ayyubid Dinasty. About Albania, I think it is not relevant on 1200 Europe background...I think that Navarre Kingdom would be much more comprensive to be included. And of course before Navarra would be Bulgaria, Halych, Kievan Rus, Novgorod, Norway (what´s that about viking kingdom????)...
Greeting!

I think it would fit well to create more Jewish citizens and people. On this age, Jewish population was quite extended on Europe (specially Spain, HRE, Poland, Bizantine Empire...), so I think the idea of Jew moneylender would be cool, as well as adding new models.

And, now, comrades, only one thing is left! Let´s pray for the return of Cruger Magnus!

I made some research about names of the units on medieval Aragonese language. I understand what did you mean about the matter of putting all the units on native languages, but I think it would fit to put the names of the Aragonese elite units on native language, in the same way made with the alforrats.
On this way:
Knight would better be cauero, medieval word refering in Aragonese to Knights. It appears on the Vidal Mayor, the compilation of laws and forals in the Crown. In the other hand, squires are called in medieval Aragonese escuder (I think it is the same in Catalan).
I think putting some of those names would help to the historical inmersion in the game. Probably you think I am an Aragonese pain in the neck... but, as you are Catalonian, I think you can easily understand as important it is for us to defend our own culture, our own language...and so, I hope you notice why I give so much importance to these details.

Great! Long live to the Crown of Aragon! Maybe can the name of the troops being translated to Aragonese-Catalan?

And where did you take the other pics from? I really like them.
Entalto Aragón!

Well, I think you can do some translations if you want to. Until now, I used google translate but it gives weird names which aren't correct. I have Spanish myself, but I am not that far yet that I can translate names of armor to Spanish.

So, if you agree, I can sent you a list of items and troops that need renaming. We are also planning to add some new voice-acting, so maybe you are also interested in that.

Farewell, send me names of troops and items and I shall translate it to Castillian  greetings to our Flemish brothers!!!

You mean, that they are easy to understand from one country to other?


Why is portuguese so different from aragones and catalão? I can't get it, it looks more like italian, you talked about xerrar, likee italian parlo, french parle, and portuguese falar, they really sound like each other like:

Non parlo italiano
Não falo italiano

Oi, Luso-parlante!!! mais é muito facil enteinder a tua lingua tambein, eu acho  eu gosto muito dela, mais nâo acho que é similar do italiano...
It is a matter of etimology, I think...charrar (Aragonese) and xerrar (Catalan) come from the same point in latin language, and literally means "to chat". In the other hand, Italian "parlare", French "parler" and Catalanonian "parlar" come from Medieval latin "parabolare", wich mean "to speak", so that words have no relationship with "falar".
Portuguese-Galician "Falar", Castillian "Hablar" and Aragonese "Fablar", in the other hand, have the same origin, from Latin word "fabulare". In fact, the Aragonese language (do not confuse with Aragonese dialect of Castillian, wich is a mix of both) is usually called the "fabla" (literally, "the speak"). So we can distinct two branches from two different etimologies.

Cèsar, would can you put an example of dialogue, so we can make a better idea to write it, please?

It seems we the Spanish shall conquer Flandes again  good luck with the mod!!! Anything to help with?

Great signatures!!!!!!!! I love so much the pics with Aragonese knights...how did you make them, Cesar?

I like so much the new models for Almohads! as a Peninsular, I think the other mongol nomad-style was terrible...

Of course, Estonian is a Fino-Ugric, language, inside the Baltic branch of the Uralic languages (do not confuse with Baltic branch of the Indo-european languages!).
Por lo que veo hay mucho castellanoparlante por aquí...al final vamos a ser mayoría y todo.
Bi-ha belún qui charre aragonés?
