"The Greek Civil War," is the name of a mod I am working on.

This mod will put you in control of the Greeks, and pit you against two other Greek tribes.

Orientation

The Athenians: A peaceful tribe, led by Emperor Arrilites VII, who hail from the magnificent paradise of Athens. Though they try to avoid violence whenever possible, their troops are well trained, and can take the fight to their aggressors if necessary. Fielding their Hoplite infantry, the Athenians are as fair tacticians as they are diplomats.

The Halcarnans: Led by the brother of Emperor Arrilites, General Lysander, the Halcarnans do not resemble the Athenians in the least, except for the virtue of being Greek. Harbouring a love of warfare and carnage, Halcarnans rule their territory with an iron fist. Although they possess platoons skilled enough to defeat many times their own numbers, the bulk of the Halcarnan war machine is composed of unskilled conscripts.

Up until the present time they have been intermitently at war with their neighbours, any brief periods of peace being a luxury of their stalemate, but the arrival of far off Greek cousins

Up until the present time, both Greek tribes have been warring intermitently, as General Lysander seeks to overthrow his brother and sieze control over all of the Greek lands. Any periods of unsteady peace they experience are but a result of a stalemate, which will last a number of years before the ambitions of Halcarnus reignite the conflict.

Now, with the arrival of their farr-off Greek cousins, led by a God whose power wanes, both sides set their sights on you as they sense a disturbance in the balance of power, which threatens to bath their lands in blood. Whether you will risk forging an alliance with either side is up to you, as well as the decision to conquer them both.


Features

Coming soon.

It looks interesting.  :yes

It's nice to see that people are still into modding this game.
 
I'll have screens of better textures coming soon. So far I've only done some recolouring, but I'll actually be doing some unique textures soon (more Greek looking armour for the Athenian Hoplites, and some a cross between Greek and Roman style armour for the Halcarnans). There will be tons or prospectives before I decide on which ones I want to use =\.

Heres another screen, I made the blue slightly less intense and I fixed their shield texture. I'll be replacing it with a gold shield later anyway so eh.
