Hello everyone,

I have this idea which I would really like to see come to life, with other words this is a suggestion to someone who might like making this(Sadly, i can't make a mod). Always have I admired the wars in the new world during the 18th-19th century. Especially the wars between European factions and Native Americans. So I wondered, how cool wouldn't it be to have a mod(for Napoleonic wars) where you had mass events with European factions such as Great Britain, France, Spain, The Netherlands,...etc fighting against Native American factions such as the Lakota, Hurons, Cherokee, Shawnee,...etc. It should be a multiplayer mod, and it should also still be able to fight between Great Britain and France and the Hurons against the Apache or something. It would be refreshing from the typical line battles which can become boring after a while. You would have to come up with tactics to battle against a horde of Indians attacking you in a massive rage, whilst hearing their typical battle cries. How awesome wouldn't it be to fire a volley on that attacking band of Native warriors? This mod would be sort of a continuation on the Old Frontier mod, which I enjoyed very much. Though I think a multiplayer would be awesome for this. There should be Mass events organized where each side has to fight in a specific way to defeat each other, instead of just always shooting each other from afar all the time, and then classically end with a bayonet battle. Personally i would consider this a major change in feel and in gameplay. You would be fighting with different kinds of weapons and tactics against each other, making it very exciting to play. War parties could be hiding behind the trees, waiting to throw their tomahawks and shoot their arrows on the European foe. The Indians charging and the European factions forming a line, so they can fire a volley on them, and then defend themselves with all they've got. Seeming the Native Americans used more horses and melee weapons, there would be a bit more action in the game. Of course typical weaponry should be available such as muskets, bows, tomahawks, pistols, ball clubs, spears, Indian shields,...etc. Just try and imagine how it would be a total different and new experience of gameplay...

Few examples of actions which could be used in the Multiplayer mod.

Notice in the charge that here the Native Americans are the ones who stand still. Usually this would have been different. But just imagine fighting off a storm of indians, or being part of those charging indians!

Old Frontier mod(Just to give you an idea)

The problem with this mod though, is that you can't dress like an Indian, so you can't have battles between Native and European factions.

I hope i have aroused some of you to make this mod! I would be eternally grateful!

 
First  :razz:

But if you want people to make a mod for you its probably not going to happen unless you have modding skills yourself.
 
Theres already a few mods like that and some in development.

Besides, if you're wanting to fight technologically inferior native people just play our Zulu mod, we will have alpha release soon.

 
Yeah, that mod does look really awesome. The problem is though that the Zulus have practically no variation in weaponry. They only have spears and shields, whereas Indians have bows, muskets, tomahawks,... They also have more variation in appearance. To play with, the native americans are way more interesting than playing as a Zulu.
