DarthMod Napoleon v2.2 Released *****

by Mitch on February 16, 2012 0 Comments

Having received good feedback on Version 2.1 this new update includes all the necessary adjustments to enjoy Napoleonic warfare with DarthMod Napoleon.


The biggest changes concern the Campaign AI, which should be much better overall. The other big improvement is the new smoke effects which are even better than, as said, the best effects ever seen in a Total War game or any strategy game.

One to Watch: [Preview] The Kievan Rus' Khaganate - The Great Conflicts 872-1071 (TGC)****

The Kievan Rus' Khaganate



Introduction to the History of the Kievan Rus':
While the lands of the Rus' have been occupied for centuries, their history truly lies within the heart of the Norse people - those who many know today as the Vikings. For many years, the Norse had been terrorizing the known world, raiding and attacking every civilized country in Europe. However, in their search for glory and gold, the Norsemen would create one of the largest and most powerful kingdoms in all of Europe.


The Early Period
It is said that the first true Rus' were Swedish of origin, crossing the Baltic Seas in order to find new land and new places to trade. They first settled in a town they called "Aldeigjuborg" near modern day Ladoga. The name came from the Finnish Alode-joki, which meant "lowland river". As the name suggests, the Norse continued their tradition ...

One to watch - [Ottoman: For The Love of Sultans] - Mod Announcement & 1st Preview ****

by Mitch on January 30, 2012 0 Comments

 


First of all; this is not a mod, this is a "mod pack" project. Our Mod Pack's name is "Ottoman: For the Love of Sultans".
This mod pack consists of 5 independent mods/scenarios in it. (Like Kingdoms pack, that consists of 4 independent scenarios/campaigns; which named: Britannia, Americas, Teutonic and Crusades).
The main difference is; every new mod starts with the time period, where the previous mod finishes.
I mean, the following mod's starting year is also the end date of the previous mod.
Every mod have it's own map, and this map grows with every next mod.
The 1st map includes only the Marmara and Aegean regions of Anatolia (the establishment) and the 5th mod's map covers 3 continents (Europe, Asia and Africa) that the Ottoman dynasty reigns at 1566...


1st Mod:

Establish the Empire

Letter from Legio



Good morning, happy holidays, and an excellent New Year! I hope everyone has had a suitably tipsy celebration for at least one of the above, and, if not, that some quality liquor is making its way to your gullets. 2011 has been an excellent year. It was about a year ago that I was first offered the position of Editor of the Eagle Standard; since then it has been my pleasure to bring Total War Center the latest and greatest in modding and general Total War news. Unfortunately, all good things come to an end - if anyone denies that it was a good thing I shall give them the dirtiest of looks - and after this issue I am no ...

Game Mod: Star Wars: Empire at War: Forces of Corruption

Latest News: 1.3 Release Process

Hey everyone,

As 1.3 is well on the way to completion, I thought I'd explain the way the release is going to be handled this time. For 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2 we did the release first through an "open" beta on the forums, and that's how it's going to be handled this time as well. All three times it's revealed some major bugs that have made the final product infinitely better. This time, however it will be limited to people with 15 or more posts. There are a few reasons for this; primarily, it's the best way make sure the beta is being tested by people who actually care about making the mod better,  and have contributed to it in some way. This isn't ...

Star Trek Armada II: Fleet Operations 3.2.6****

by Mitch on January 3, 2012 0 Comments

Dec 20th, 2011

At the heart of Star Trek Armada are the most exciting elements from the Star Trek episodes and movies: leading fleets of starships into combat, exploring new planetary systems throughout the Alpha and Delta Quadrants, and carefully treading the delicate balance between peace and war among six different races. This RTS is unlike many others in that there is a huge emphasis placed on modding it, and consequently there is quite an array of extremely impressive mods available which have proved massively popular. So if you are a fan of RTS, follow Star Trek and want to experience all this wonderful game series has to offer then scope out a few of its sweet-as modifications!

Patch 3.2.6 is only compatible with a previous 3.2.x installation. Patching an earlier version (3.1.5 and below) will result in a corrupt installation. This is an ...

by Mitch on December 29, 2011 0 Comments

War of the Roses is a new IP that transports players back in time to the battle-ravaged, dynastic civil war era of 15th century England where ownership of the throne of England was brutally fought over between supporters of two rival branches of the Royal House of Plantagenet - the house of Lancaster (the reds) and the house of York (the whites).
 

Description
