Crimea

This is where our experts try to teach you the very flexible modding system for our previous release - SOW Gettysburg and its add-ons. It's powerful, but dangerous. Post your tips and your questions.

Crimea

Post by Pom »

The attachment Screen.jpg is no longer available
CRIMEA

A mod that trys to recreate the war in the Crimea between Russia and Turkey and Turkey's allies,
France,Great Britain,and Sardinia.

There are five orders of battle,
The Alma,
Balaclava,
Tchernaya,
and two fictional OOB's
Crimea French,
Crimea British.

I haven't forgotten Inkerman,I just feel that the battle needs to be a scenario and map.
On the subject of maps,I hope to be able to add Crimean maps,if(with the help of Norbsoft) I can learn how.

The Russians have been slowed down,use column formations,and have skirmishers,if you'd rather
use the vanilla games formations,then there is an alternative "unitglobal" csv in the Logistics
folder,just swap them out.
I've also kept the flags generic so as to keep down the strain on the frps.

The game needs no other mods to run.

My thanks to Marching Thru Georgia,I've again borrowed the skirmish formation from the excellent,KriegsSpiel Napoleon Mod,Gunship,for his cavalry tweaks,all the other modders I've learned from and the Norbsoft team for giving us a great game.

Really nice stuff Pom. I actually started a Crimea mod for TC2M and made a few sprites - not sure if I still have them but then Norb asked me to make the SOW sprites. Its a fascinating war and a great subject for a mod.

Thanks Crikey,hopefully it's not quite finished as I still want to add some maps,but not sure when or if I'll be able to.

edit...and thanks for the idea for the Rifles symbol,may use that in future for the artillery,i.e. crossed barrels.

Thanks Tim,it's a limited war,so lends itself well to a small mod,and really looking forward to Waterloo.
Also made a mental note about what you said about the relationship between number of animations and number of uniforms,may have to look at my stock of animations again.

A most excellent mod! :) One of the best on this site and the best you have made by far Pom! Had alot of fun playing it last night. The musket sounds, ambient, smoke and just to listen to the soldiers shouting in all their differnt languages made this an A++ experience!

Scourge of War has so much potential..the only thing I miss is a campaign with several days/weeks of fighting enemy armies, managing your units, deploying them and marching.

Thank you Pansarskott,I always play with headphones on so the sounds are important to me.

I would also love to see a campaign,I think they are planning a mini campaign for Waterloo,so another reason to look forward to it.

speaking of "waterloo", does anyone know when they expect that to be avail?
