This is the thread for historical discussions, as for suggestions and discussions in regards to historical accuracy, post here.
So here's the list so far ->
Suggestions for greater historical accuracy:
Mongol Mod:
- Remove cities/villages, implement Paelolithic mod code which allow moving troop parties to host village scenes accessible through the conversation. This will represent the nomadic nature of the steppes.
Great Khan Mod:
- A suggestion: Implement age of machinery siege warfare. China at this time was still incredibly technologically advanced compared to any other nation in the world. This era should also represent the innovations of the Mongol forces in terms of siege warfare.
- As for the Naiman Alliance? Actually the Naimans under Kushluk fled to seek shelter with the Kara-Khitai Khanate to the west and therefore the enemies of Chingghis Khaan was not the "Naiman Alliance" - but the Kara Khitai Khanate.
Historical facts for ideas for future implementation:
Mongol Invasion Mod:

Mongol Invasion Mod:
Well the invasion of the middle east was made by a disunited Mongol Empire in the first place. The title of the mod called "Mongol Invasion of the middle-east" is pretty much still an Altaic civil war with Turkic and Mongolic leaders throwing nations at each other. So historically, the real invasion of the middle-east was Mongols vs Khwarezm... though dam, Khwarezmians had Turkic rulers too!!!
Heck, might as well just proceed as planned, thats my opinion. The only real middle-eastern faction in that era was the Ayyubids (My spelling SUCKS) before the Mamluk usurption of the Sultanate. Heh - if you want real Mongol civil wars though - thats in the Temur/Tokhtamysh era. Temur wanted to reforge the Mongol empire, but ended up just destroying each individual khanate before dying onroute to China.
Well there is also a 6th faction - Seljuk/Ottoman Turks who were actually going through the transition as well in this period! So this era is very very interesting. Historically the Kipchak Khanate didn't expand south, they were pretty much content with extorting all the East European princes. The Chagatai Khanate was too busy governing the silk road in central Asia. But the Ilkhanids however, no, they were warring alright - big time. Delhi princes... dunno what they were doing though - I only know stuff about them after Babur's invasion and formation of the Mughal state.
To simplify everything you can just include the Seljuks/Ottoman Turks, Ayyubids and Ilkhanids. But then again inclusion of the Kipchak Khanate, Chagatai Khanate, and Delhi sultanate will make the mod VERY interesting.
