Hello everyone, from now on, I will use this thread to update you on the mod I'm doing, Spartacus Total War.
The mod will focus on the gladiator uprising lead by Spartacus and on the many events taking place by that time.
The mod will be as historically accurate as possible, having in mind, of course, that his is a game and supposed to be fun, not a history lesson.
The new factions will be:
The Republic of Rome (previous Julii)
The Gladiator Rebels (previous Macedon)
The Roman Rebels (previous Scipii)
The Eastern Provinces (previous Brutii)
The Celts (previous S.P.Q.R.)
The Mauritanians (previous carthage)
The Kingdom of Bithinya and Pergamum (previous Seleucid Empire)
The map will suffer some changes. More regions will be added, as well as the starting territories for the remaining factions, and some tricks I won't reveal so you can be surprised while playing it.
Since I'm no artist whatsoever, I'm using skins and units that already exist on the game and those on Andalus' AUP (to who I give my many thanks in advance for giving me permission to use them), with some minor changes. You will see for yourself, in time.
If someone is willing, I could really use some help creating faction symbols. I have the ideas but not the talent to make them. If so, just say something here and I'll contact you.
This is all for now. As soon as I have news, I will update.
