Introduction:
插入代码块:
After southern kingdoms pushed the orcs back to their lands, the Empress united neighboring lands and claimed the lands she once freed from the green menace to herself. Her empire grew and soon became the wealthiest and strongest power in the whole continent. Empress Anette had knew no fear and had no pity to those who opposed her. Any resistance which threatened her throne or simply complicated her life was crushed and offenders tortured and executed. Although the kingdom was ruled with the Iron Hand and cruel judgment, it managed to sustain its supremacy. There were no worthy foes who could match the Empire’s strength…
None but one… Aarankh, young warrior whom claimed to be the rightful hair to the Akilian throne rose against the Anette and created another underground force. Akilians full of anger and hatred towards the empire organized small although strong army which attacked convoys, burned villages and crushed patrols. As if it wasn’t enough, major cities were often targeted when it came to sabotage.
Aarankh wasn’t however the only who opposed the Empire. From the far east, armies of barbarians were marching to conquer the Empress’ lands. From the north, greenskings united all the clans to join the war and crush the Empire. In the west, tribes of Todoria unleashed their fury and challenged Annete’s armies.
End of Days is coming to Eredan, the Empire in Flames…Although I'm not a great python scripter, I have modded many games before. Those included Gothic Series and Total War series so please do not take me as a total noob
I am fascinated by Mount and Blade, 3D graphics and 2D art. Now it is time for me to create something of my own, something that has been sitting in my head for the past three years and now "it" has a chance to unleash. I am looking for people interested in helping me create this modification. Introduction above tells you a lot about the story. However, I am going to go into more detail in a minute...
End Of Days - Empire in Flames
Factions:
The Empire - As a new Empress, Anette did well conquering all the neighbouring regions and extending her kingdom's territory. However, after many years of wealth her people are facing a huge threat. The Empire is a strong faction with range of different units. Powerful Cavalry, Arabic style infantry and archers mixed with european-like units from the western lands.
*Orcs - Greenskins are constantly at war with everyone and everything that dares to move. War is their only calling and death on the battlefield their fate.
Tribes of Todoria - Western Todorian tribes united against the Empire. Their units are powerful although very simple. Todorian technology is very limited which results in lack of armor and advanced weapons (so mostly maces etc ). Also, lack of cavalry is the biggest issue.
Barbarians - Barbarians from the west consist mostly of cavalry archers. They are simple folk who come in huge numbers. It is exactly amount of their men that guarantees them victory.
Akilian Rebels - Kingdom of Akila was one of the greatest kingdoms Eredan ever saw. However, the orcs rampaged and burned everything on their way and the kingdom fell into their hands. Later on, The Empress "Freed" Akila although annexed it a few weeks after pushing the greenskins back.
* MOST LIKELY pirate nation, so no fixed faction

Player will be able to decide who to join. The Empire, Tribes of Todoria or The Barbarian faction are the only options. (Next mod will also feature elven and dwarven nations if this one is completed).
Map of Eredan (continent):
The map itself is in polish language so my apologies
It was created for my forum based RPG in End of Days realm (it has been running for 2 years btw ).Who is where:
Ok the Empire's lands:
Pustynia Kaldyjska, Dotia, Veragor,
Todoria:
Todoria, Królestwo Elfów (once elven kingdom).
Orcs:
Ziemie Orków, Bortia, Zapomniane Ziemie
Barbarians:
Bolgoria
Akilian Rebels:
Akila (only half, other half belongs to the empire).
As you can see the borders are quite well thought of. Factions border with each other creating front lines and have good defensive positions. (Example: Barbarians are divided from Akila by the mountains).

--------------------------------
Troop trees:
Todoria
Todorian troops focus mainly on hand to hand combat. Their advantage are certainly exceptionaly strong men who wield powerful hammers, axes, spears and sometimes swords. Berserkers who carry huge maces and who are abnormaly tall are certainly the army's advantage. One mighty blow recieved from a berserker is enough to kill a boar, sometimes a horse, and certainly a man...
As if it wasn't enough, Todorian archers are one of the best on the whole continent. Forest thought them how to use bows and javelins properly to hunt for food. Skirmishers have a hard grip on their favourite weapons.
Although this army may seem as tough, it has one dissadvantage. Defence. "Heavy" troops are the only to carry chainmail. The rest, runs either bare-chasted or with some kind of leather armour on. Berserkers prefer furs on their backs and blood of their enemies on their chests. nothing else...
This army has very limited cavalry, which means that once it's archers are defeated, it will be easy to rule them out and shoot out.

Akilan Rebels
Akila was once a kingdom proud for it's history and it's achievements. It could be called the most advanced and the richest of it's time, until the foolish king, Drakan III who took the throne from his brother by blood and murder, brought doom upon it's kingdom. Orcs ramapged through the country leaving notihng but ruin behind. King's son, Herek died later on in a war fighting in the siege waged by the undead led by sorcerer Vecna - legendary for his treason on the kingdom.
But what was once is all but lost. Akila is no longer a kingdom, and it's glory has been all but forgotten... though not by all. Aarankh, a man who claims to be the rightful hair of the kingdom waged a rebelion and rose up against the Empire which "freed" his homeland those odd 5 years back. However, there is much to be done to win the war and push back enemies who attack the kingdom of Akila from all sides...
About the troops:
Akilian troops are particularly strong. Although it's still just a rebelion, a lot of the Empire's forces turned it's back on the empress and joined Aarankh's army. This helped him form strong although expensive proffesional force.
Basic troops are hardly equiped, but as they advance their armour becomes heavy and skills amazingly high. For example, Akilian Swords 'o' War can easily much todorian forces when it comes to strenght, and yet they withstand them since they have amazing armour. Pave crossbowmen not only carry deadly ranged weapon, but also are equiped with tall shields that cover their backs. Cavalry is also strong all round...
Akilian force is very, very flexible. However, there is one dissadvantage. This army is particularly expensive when it comes to money, and advancement is also rather slow.

Barbarians
Barbarian nations come from the far east. They intention in Eredan is simple - sack and loot the empire and kill all those who stand on their path...
Faction itself is rather week when it comes to troop strenght. However, it is not about the strenght of those troops, but their numbers and expense. They come in big armies, and require very little money.
Their main strategy being numbers, but also horse archers make very powerful addition to the army. An army of mounted skirmishers can prove to be very valuable and useful when attacking Akila or Todoria. Cavalry tree although poor in variety, proves to be rather strong. Even if the nation lacks strong infantry (Heavy spearmen are no match against Akilian troops), it certainly cannot wish for better cavalry.
